President Donald Trumpposted a video Wednesday evening on Twitter to say he’s doing fine ― “like, perfect,” even ― in spite of his COVID-19 diagnosis. Standing outside the White House, where he’s insisted on working with staff despite being contagious, Trump looked more stable than he did Monday evening, when he appeared on a White House balcony sans protective mask, seemingly struggling to breathe. The White House has revealed almost nothing about his illness. Instead of information, he has left us with propagandistic White House videos, a stream of unhinged, apocalyptic tweets, false claims of an easy “cure” and cryptic, misleading dispatches from the White House physician, Sean Conley.
