President Donald Trump is scheduled to host his first in-person event since testing positive for the coronavirus on Saturday at the White House discussing "law and order," despite evidence of a growing coronavirus outbreak at the White House this week.

The event will feature "remarks to peaceful protesters for law and order" by the president, according to an invite obtained by ABC News and confirmed by two White House sources familiar with the planning.

The gathering is scheduled to take place on the South Lawn of the White House in conjunction with a previously planned event organized by controversial conservative activist Candace Owens' group Blexit, a campaign to urge Black Americans to leave the Democratic Party, sources said.

1. Anybody stupid enough to attend deserve what they get.

3. I hope it attracts 1000 Republicans who have not yet voted. nt

2. Not according to Bloomberg. All appearances have been cancelled at least through Monday.

I think he's gravely ill and, perhaps, dying. Why else would Pence cancel events to return to Washington today?

[spooky3]

4. The Bloomberg story's posted time is a little earlier and doesn't it cover only

events that would have required travel?

[PSPS]

7. You're right. Bloomberg was referring to "travel." This, apparently, requires no travel.

This will be easier for trump since he'll be closer to the oxygen tank and his own personal stash.

5. On the other hand, he apparently had enough energy to prattle on for two hours on Limbaugh today.

6. Tell me this isn't real . . .

8. I had predicted this

and here we are.

9. He's not resting and recuperating, he might well crash soon

I mean all those meds, all that bulk, heavy breathing ... pretty dumb to plow ahead.

[Mc Mike]

10. Hatch Act violation, again.

[BlueIdaho]

14. How quickly Trump's law breaking becomes the new normal.

People should be screaming about using “our” house as a political stage.

[Mc Mike]

18. The constant law breaking IS a bit odd, since he's the Law and Order candidate.nt

11. Who in their right mind would go to that WH.

[Traildogbob]

13. "Right "minds

Would not be supporting this anal pubic hair crust at all. Only MAGGOT Brains. Refuse hospital beds for these suicidal mouth breathers. Somebody needs to take all that Hydroxy TAX payers were charged for. Yes, I said TAX PAYERS, no trumps.

15. "Trump planning to host 1st in-person event since diagnosis..."

Oh boy! Get ready for: Super Spreader II...Electric Boogaloo (Boys)!

16. Candace Owens, Quisling of color

Perhaps Trump will embrace her

17. Trump CANNOT be allowed to use the WH for a purely political event.

The fact that someone isn't raising hell about it just shows how far we've gone toward accepting his outrageous behavior as the "new normal." Who is responsible for allowing this monstrosity to occur? Who can be complained to? What laws or regulations are being violated, and what are the consequences?

The people I feel sorry for are the WH support staff and their families. Will they get paid while being quarantined after Fat Donnie's superspreader event? Will they even be tested?
