In a statement released on Friday just hours after Trump and his wife tested positive for coronavirus, McEnany said that Trump “will be working from the presidential offices at Walter Reed.”
The President, she however said “remains in good spirts, has mild symptoms, and has been working throughout the day.”,
Two officials from two previous administrations stated that the “presidential offices” consist of a suite of rooms on the sprawling campus of the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, including: a sitting room, a conference room and a hospital bedroom.
However, officials, one Democrat and one Republican both said the explanation in press secretary Kayleigh McEnany’s statement stood out to them as curious. The offices are not dedicated for presidential use only, but the suite of offices are a place where presidents can go while they are on the medical campus.
Reports later confirmed that Marine One has landed on the White House lawn to transport President Trump to Walter Reed medical center.
