As LBREPORT.com flashed last night (Oct. 1), President Trump and First Lady Melania have tested positive for COVID-19.

Immediate reaction lasgt night from LB Mayor Robert Garcia: "Holy Smokes"....

...and then followed about an hour later with this: "I’ve lost two parents to COVID19. It’s a horrific virus and I don’t wish it on anyone. I hope that once and for all we take this pandemic seriously as a country. Now more than ever we need strong national leadership."

Dem Presidential candidate Joe Biden: "Jill and I send our thoughts to President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump for a swift recovery. We will continue to pray for the health and safety of the president and his family."
