US President Donald Trump was released on Monday (Tuesday morning for Greece) from Walter Reed Military Hospital, where he was treated after becoming infected with the coronavirus, and returned to the White House.
Wearing a mask, he walked from the main entrance to the limousine that took him to the presidential helicopter, the Marine One, for the short flight back to the United States presidential building, clenching his fist and then raising his thumb to the cameras before to get in the car. When asked by reporters how many people in the White House had been infected, Trump replied “thank you very much.”
He stepped out of the helicopter, still wearing a mask, into a grassy part of the presidential courtyard. He climbed a few steps, removed his mask, raised his thumb again, and stood in front of the cameras, face uncovered, for several moments. The Republican then said he was “very good.”
Trump’s message
In a videotaped message, Trump urged his compatriots to “come out” and “not be afraid” of the pandemic.
Although his doctors say he has not yet fully overcome the danger, Trump, without a mask, insisted on downgrading the pandemic, shortly before the presidential election.
“Don’t let it dominate your life. Don’t be afraid of it. We go back, we go back to work. We will move on (…).” Get out there, be careful, “urges the tycoon in this video.
Biden’s answer
Democratic White House candidate Joe Biden has defied the scathing remarks of Republican President Donald Trump after he was released from the hospital after receiving medical treatment.
I saw the tweet he made, they showed it to me, he said “don’t let the pandemic rule your life.” “Let him go and say this to the 205,000 families who lost someone,” the apparently outraged former vice president said on Florida’s Local 10 television channel, where he continues his campaign.
In a video posted on his Twitter account shortly after his return to the White House from Walter Reed Military Hospital, Trump assures that his country, “the most important in the world,” will “defeat” the pandemic, urging his compatriots to “Don’t let it take over your life,” “don’t be afraid,” and “get out there,” while more than 210,000 people have succumbed to COVID-19 in the United States at this stage.
Speaking to NBC shortly thereafter, Joe Biden said he was “honestly not surprised” by President Trump’s announcement Friday that he was infected with SARS-CoV-2, and when asked about the presidential video, he made no secret of his displeasure. . , while the White House resident urges Americans not to “worry” while “some 210,000 people are dead,” correcting the report he referred to earlier.
“I hope no one thinks there is no problem.” There is a serious problem, “Biden said.
He also said he hoped Trump, after “what happened”, would send the right message to Americans, that “masks are important” and that the so-called social distance rule must be respected.
