This. This right here. This is why we can't get this f*ing virus under control.
He knew Hicks was positive. He knew he was exposed. He knew that he needed to quarantine immediately. But raising money was more important than protecting the lives of his donors.
Who the hell breaks quarantine on a potentially fatal disease to raise political contributions? This guy does.
"According to CNN White House correspondent Kaitlan Collins, a "small group of officials" were aware that Hicks had tested positive on Thursday morning but still allowed Trump to travel to New Jersey for the fundraiser."

So, what to expect?**
They're experiencing mild, cold-like symptoms now. That's "symptom onset".
At any point in the days that follow, they could (and likely will) break from the progression. Melania very likely will first, based on age, gender and weight.
Unless or until they recover, we can expect worsening symptoms over the coming days.
If they continue to get worse, hospitalization is likely in 5-10 days. (Possibly on the early end out of extreme caution.)
After that, if it continues to progress, maybe a week before ICU admission. Highly variable.
If bad comes to worse and one of them dies, October 18 +/- about 7 days would be the normal timeframe, assuming infection around 9/26.
Recovery can kick in at any point on the timeline, and I hope it does.
