President Trump wished Ohio Governor Mike DeWine well and said he’d “be just fine” after learning today that DeWine had tested positive for Covid-19.
DeWine said in a statement that he took the test in preparation for greeting President Donald Trump on the tarmac in Cleveland, where the president is visiting Thursday. The governor has no symptoms at the present time and plans to quarantine at his home in Cedarville for the next 14 days.
DeWine’s positive result came after months of controversy in the state. His earlier lockdown orders set off furious protests at the capital in Columbus.
