MSNBC host Joy Reid raised eyebrows on Friday for suggesting that President Trump was fabricating his coronavirus diagnosis to "Get out of the debates."
President Trump shocked the world late Thursday night when he revealed that he and First Lady Melania Trump had contracted the coronavirus.
MSNBC HOST ASKS PELOSI IF SHE'S BEEN CONTACTED ABOUT 'CONTINUITY OF GOVERNMENT' AFTER TRUMP'S COVID DIAGNOSIS. "Here's how wrecked Trump's credibility is at this point: I've got a cellphone full of texts from people who aren't sure whether to believe Trump actually has covid. 'He lies so much,' one friend just texted. 'Is he just doing this to get out of the debates?' others are texting," Reid tweeted on Friday morning.
Critics slammed the MSNBC host for the conspiratorial tweet, particularly amid the escalated developments of the president's illness.
"65K likes on this one from a national primetime host. Aged well with the president now on his way to Walter Reed," The Hill media reporter Joe Concha reacted.
Earlier in the day, Reid's colleague Stephanie Ruhle appeared to be thinking several steps ahead, asking House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Pelosi, D-Calif., who the MSNBC host stressed was "Second in line for the presidency," whether the White House had "Contacted you about the continuity of government?".
Vice President Mike Pence, who is ahead of Pelosi in line for the presidency, has so far tested negative for the coronavirus.
