President Trump initially dismissed the threat of the virus by likening it to the common flu.

As of right now Early 10/02/2020.

United States has 7,494,671 Confirmed Cases and 212,660 Deaths. 4,736,621 Recovered.

Not only did Donald J. Trump tested positive but also the First Lady Melania.

This morning Donald J. Trump tweeted out they tested positive just shortly after the First Presidential Debate 2020. September 29, 2020.

“Tonight, @FLOTUS and I tested positive for COVID-19,” Mr. Trump wrote on Twitter shortly before 1 a.m. “We will begin our quarantine and recovery process immediately. We will get through this TOGETHER!”

After quarantine. Will the President make it to the second Presidential debate on October 15, 2020? Will he finally take COVID-19 seriously? What about October 22, 2020 Third President Debate? Will he cancel/postpone the Presidential Election November 3rd? Who really knows but one thing is for sure.

Today’s stock will take a dip hard. An expected 400~500 points dip on the S&P. This news will shock the world since whatever he says as a President has affected the US & World market in many ways.

We hope for the best that everyone will be safe from the COVID-19 Coronavirus.

Thanks for reading.
