I think the concern is not so much that he didn't announce it but that he kept intracting with people before he knew for sure. I completely agree he should not have made an accouncement until he had the more accurate test, I just don't think that is the only issue.
If the initial result came in Thursday night and no new people were exposed pending the results of the second test, I don't see a problem. Going to the fundraiser after the Hope Hicks results came back was not good. Of course, if he knew he had the virus before he went to the fundraiser, that would be even worse.
Did you know that the rapid testing can be 30% giving false positives? Of course Trump was waiting for a back up . If he said he had Covid and was a false positive Trump would be creamed in MSM for lying . Of Course Trump was waiting for a back up before reporting it.
word for word this. but you won't read that in the media

President Trump didn’t disclose a positive result from a rapid test for Covid-19 on Thursday while awaiting the findings from a more thorough coronavirus screening, according to people familiar with the matter.
Mr. Trump received a positive result on Thursday evening before making an appearance on Fox News in which he didn’t reveal those results. Instead, he confirmed earlier reports that one of his top aides had tested positive for coronavirus and mentioned the second test he had taken that night for which he was awaiting results.
“I’ll get my test back either tonight or tomorrow morning,” Mr. Trump said during the interview. At 1 a.m. on Friday, the president tweeted that he indeed had tested positive.
Under White House protocols, the more reliable test that screens a specimen from deeper in the nasal passage is administered only after a rapid test shows a positive reading. Based on people familiar with the matter, the president’s tests followed that protocol.
Naturally, the mainstream media is gonna drag Trump, true or not true.
Who the hell believes it? I guess most Democrats and the left. LOL
