Trump stays out of sight while venting on Twitter

Washington Correspondent

He regards himself as the world’s greatest showman, but President Donald Trump hasn’t been seen in public since his address from the White House balcony on Monday after leaving hospital.

But he has been firing off dozens of messages on Twitter.

Tonight, there are questions about whether the president has been in the Oval Office at all.

It had been reported that he visited the office, despite testing positive for Covid 19.

But then came the denial, with the chief of staff saying he would come back sometime today.
