Less than a week ago, several top White House officials mingled with guests in the Rose Garden as President Donald Trump officially nominated Amy Coney Barrett to replace Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court.

Many of those guests were seen not wearing masks, fist bumping and greeting one another in close proximity, and their seats didn't appear to be 6 feet apart.

On Thursday night, Hope Hicks, one of Trump's closest advisers, tested positive for coronavirus, then the president and first lady Melania Trump also tested positive. All three were at the event.

[Cha]

13. Barr always looks like a prime candidate. He never looks healthy and he's fatter than Trump.

[MarcA]

11. A 21st Century Nazi Death Cult Meeting. n/t

[mainer]

12. And that was outdoors

So fresh air alone won't protect you.

[BumRushDaShow]

16. Outdoors can help mitigate it but ONLY if there is "social distancing"

and better, mask-wearing if too close together. There was apparently none of that going on at this event.

[LisaL]

28. Fresh air can only do so much.

You still need to wear mask and socially distance. These people were not wearing masks, and clearly were not socially distancing.

[JI7]

29. They were touching each other

[JI7]

30. They were touching each other

[BumRushDaShow]

14. Mike Lee was apparently there

and it's being speculated that this is where he might have contracted it. The article mentioned the President of the University of Notre Dame who was also there and tested positive.

They are gonna have to see what happens over the next 2 weeks to allow for incubation.

[Texin]

15. They were all tap dancing and performing cartwheels on RBG's grave with that nominee.

RBG wasn't even in the ground at the time. Their smug entitlement just gags me and their sense of indestructability has been breathtaking to behold - and all in thrall to and in obeisance to the god of their idolatry.

[SunSeeker]

18. Those sick fucks didn't even wait until RBG was in her grave! She was buried Tuesday!

23. What was that big event

For the Melanoma Rose Garden Raping. That was pretty packed and maskless. Wasn’t that the 4th celebration, At OUR house, with the two huge video screens. He is determined to kill so many fools. The Mount Rushmore KKKlan rally. And our taxes are being drained for these death camps. Maybe a good use of our taxes, herd thinning repiglicans before they kill us with all their white terrorist groups. Hum, now I am not feeling so bad about how my tax dollars a spent. 3D chess by Dems?????

[Initech]

25. That whole place is probably a biohazard right now.
