Ohio Governor Tests Positive For COVID-19, Has Existing Respiratory Issues | MSNBC
I wish the Governor well.
@Kevin Strong your liberalism is showing
I hope he doesn’t get better. Politicians like him are the reason for 200.000 avoidable deaths in the US. And I don’t feel sorry for murderers with 200.000 victims either.
@Jasmin A. I hope the whole filthy lot of them get it. And not get better.
@Jasmin A. This gov has been trying to help his state you can’t put all the GOV in one bowl no matter what party they are
I just don’t like wishing ill will on people
I saw this fools bravado countless times in the military. The ones who get away with it serve only as an encouragement to the other fools be even more foolish.
Unfortunately their “bravado” means they are also spreading it to a lot of sensible people who might die because of it.
The fact that Trump hasn’t gotten sick is clear proof that.. there is no God..🙄
They still have not explained that midnight run to the hospital back in January, have they?
God exists he gave us free will because he isn’t selfish we have to pay for the consequences trump is to blame as well as some politicians in both parties but the people truly responsible are the voters who voted for this man and the one’s who stayed home
Because Donald’s a child. Didn’t you hear? They can’t get sick.
Or…it is simply proof that God has a very sick sense of humour.
If they stopped testing people who have to meet Trump, there wouldn’t be so many Republicans with it.
So true…someone should tell Trump !
Fewer CASES! SLOW THE TESTING DOWN!
@Bob Heck
Stop testing Republicans for COVID and DEMENTIA. They’re inherantly positive.
@Jenna Abrams …Definitely!
Even though he split from trump, he’s still a ignorant conservative running around with no mask on, this virus gets its strength from ignorance ,and the ppls who believe they have a American choice
Actually, he has enforced wearing masks in Ohio and has preached to ohioans (like myself) many, many times on the importance of wearing a mask…So either he doesn’t practice what he preaches (which from what I have seen is NOT the case) or the masks do not work to stop the spread.
@Mandi Williams thanks for your information, peace be on to you.
We arr in the middle of a Moronavirus
Bigly so, must get some of that covfefe to stop my brain from melting.
The Trumpvirus.

President Pandemic should be next up, he’s had enough time on the planet.
@Keith Johnson – Shelby GT500
And you think Trump can? Really? Without lying to your face?
If it’s such a hoax then why are these GOP’ers getting tested….Didn’t Herman Cain prove you guys right about masks 👉💀😷👈…you know they don’t do any good and there is no virus
@CShield i know youre not happy until covid wipes out a completely healthy person.
@ihave35cents He died of covid-19 complications, honey. That’s not my fault.
@Roger Wilco ◀TUNNELVISION IGNORANCE
@ihave35cents ◀WRONG AGAIN THUMBSUCKER!
@Roger Wilco He was in remissions for at LEAST ten years ( 2008). God can’t you use Google before you post ?
Pity. I liked DeWine as a governor even though he’s a republican. He is one of the guys you can disagree with politically but still respect. Not many people left like him in your country…
Trump: “” I say to my people, stop the testing ” too bad, they disobeyed him in getting the Governor tested, he should have been allowed to have trump infested.
It’s selfish, having everyone around trump tested, while he advocates for Americans to stop testing themselves.
I agree.
Ur stupid

@Christine King my vulnerable group is NHS administration. Sorry you dont like my opinion but i have to tell you what i see. Lockdowns just delay the inevitable. Btw.. All holidays are cancelled. Tells me the inevitable is happening soon.
O
@felix leiter If you were really what you say, you wouldn’t be here. So, go eat sh*t, troll.
@Christine King well its 0735 BST where i am and im not a troll. Perhaps a bit of self reflection is in order.
@felix leiter Right. Troll.
@ihave35cents The “uptown” 25 yr olds or the “downtown” 25yr olds?
*Professor Allan Lichtman, a historian who has correctly predicted every single election since 1984, has just predicted that Trump is going to LOSE in November.*
@Joanna Reyes TOUCHÉ !
Yeah. He also predicted he would win a few weeks back. Just vote.
BLUE TSUNAMI IMPERATIVE!
And he is pretty always right on with his predictions.
Only if people vote.
It is what it is. The president said that, so what’s the problem.? I would expect that he agrees.

“Hospitals say feds are seizing masks and other coronavirus supplies without a word”
https://www.latimes.com/politics/story/2020-04-07/hospitals-washington-seize-coronavirus-supplies?_amp=true
It certainly wouldn’t be the first time.
Or the second.
Or the third.
And so on.
Shouldn’t have tested. And why are republicans quarantining anyway? Pop some hydroxychloroquin and the sniffles will magically go away. If it’s even there since it’s just a hoax.
Well said !
No test and no cases, right? Lol
I am like…
Addicted to Clorox.
Man.
Still don’t have Covid.
So, it, like works.
Close! SOOOO CLOSE!
It’s like COVID-19 is playing cat and mouse with trump.
HERRRRRRREEE MOUSY MOUSY MOUSY !
Even if Trump got it and died, IT IS WHAT IT IS…
@David Tan Pleez, pleez let that be on his tombstone.
@David Tan Dont get my hopes up.
COVID sees no race, gender, political affiliation
No matter how much the filthy rethugs think otherwise.
Funny how these corrupt scum can get tests and results while the rest of us can’t.
When Repugs start dropping like flies, maybe Drumpf will start taking it seriously. (Herman Cain doesnt count to Dolt 45, for obvious reasons) .
Why is Trump testing people that are gonna be around him? You test and you get cases! No test no cases, right? SMH I really hope Trump gets COVID.
