This was anticipated

No problem, no problem, we planned for this, it’s all part of the plan, not a problem.

About 15 cadets from the US Military Academy Class of 2020 who were brought back for graduation where President Donald Trump is scheduled to give the commencement address have tested positive for coronavirus, according to a US Army spokesperson.

That is, they were brought back because Trump demanded to give the commencement address so the class had to be brought back to satisfy the needs of his ravenous ego. If Trump hadn’t done an I wanna the class would not have returned to West Point to graduate.

“The Army and West Point have done meticulous planning to ensure the health and safety of the returning cadets of the U.S. Military Academy’s Class of 2020. There is mandatory screening for all and we’ve had a small number — about 1 ½ percent — test positive,” the spokesperson said. “This was anticipated. None were symptomatic, and no cadet has contracted through person-to-person contact while under the Army’s care. Those who test positive are isolated, and receive appropriate care and attention, while we continue an orderly reintegration of our cadets.”

It’s fine it’s fine it’s fine we planned for it it’s fine.

In April, the President announced he was going to address West Point’s commencement ceremony taking place June 13. His decision to do so has been criticized for putting cadets’ health at risk. West Point said in a statement in late April the graduation procession “will look different from recent graduation ceremonies due to current force health protection requirements” related to the coronavirus pandemic.

Trump didn’t have to announce that, he just did it because he wanted the spotlight.

West Point’s campus is in New York state, which has been the state hardest hit by the coronavirus pandemic so far. Cadets had been away from campus since early March.

But Trump’s ravenous ego must be fed.
