Trump goes to Walter Reed Military Hospital with Marine One, | Abroad

Several doctors have recommended the move to the hospital. Trump can get the right care right away, if necessary. Trump will stay “for a few days.”

Trump will ‘just’ continue to work from the hospital, the White House spokeswoman said. There, a presidential room has been set up with all necessary equipment, so that he can continue to perform all official duties.

A helicopter, the Marine One, will be waiting for Trump at the White House on Friday. He would have a mild fever, an initiate has been told.

Journalists were kept away from the chopper at one point.

A White House spokesman has said Trump has not turned his presidential powers over to Vice President Mike Pence. The US Constitution states that if the president is unable to perform the duties, the vice president takes over. That is not yet the case.

Boris Johnson

The White House emphasizes that it is purely about precaution. “This is the right thing to do, I think. But without a doubt, this is not what the White House would like to see, ”Trump’s former National Security Adviser John Bolton told CNN.

The presenter of the channel who has never been kind to Trump, speaks of ‘a historic day’.

A previous world leader who became infected, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, was also talked about precaution when he was admitted to hospital. It later emerged that Johnson was much closer to death and that ministers had prayed for him at night.

‘Worries grow’

Dr. Sanjay Gupta, a well-known doctor and TV commentator, is concerned about the signals from the White House. “The president is taken to hospital very quickly. It shows a level of concern. It’s gotten bigger and bigger since the contamination, I understand when I spoke to people in the White House. Everything has happened quickly. I think it would be a good idea to bring him to the Walter Reed, because they have the best facilities there, but it is not an easy decision. ”

Experimental treatment

Earlier in the day, the White House reported that Donald Trump was ‘tired but cheerful.’ He is being treated with an experimental drug made from synthetic antibodies, which has not yet received official approval. Melania seems to have fewer complaints. She has ‘a mild cough and headache’.

Trump’s illness throws a spanner in the works of his reelection campaign. All meetings have been canceled until further notice, everything will take place online at most.
