Trump’s Bedminster fundraiser questioned after COVID diagnosis

President spent time at golf club in NJ before testing positive for COVID

Questions are swirling over whether or not President Donald Trump was already infected with coronavirus when he went to a fundraiser at his golf club in Bedminster, NJ.

NEW JERSEY - On Thursday, President Donald Trump visited his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey to speak at a fundraising event and now, questions are being asked as to whether or not he was already infected with coronavirus during his visit.

Many of the questions come after Dr. Sean Conley, the White House Physician said Saturday afternoon that it was “just 72 hours into the diagnosis,” meaning President Trump would have been diagnosed Wednesday, before the fundraiser.

When pressed by the media, Dr. Conley later said the PResident was diagnosed on Thursday, after the event.

With 100 supporters in attendance, critics are asking if President Trump was putting the lives of others at risk by attending.
