There were a bunch of staffers flying on the helicopter with Hope on Wednesday. This is just a total sh**show.
However, we actually don't know directionality yet. As
@Daniel in SD said, Trump
could be the asymptomatic super spreader. I doubt he is tested every day (even if he says he is).
As we all know, it's very possible even for symptomatic people to show symptoms AFTER a person they infect shows symptoms. It's not an unlikely scenario - it has happened many times before.
It will be interesting to see if they dive into studying the directionality here with RNA sequencing (not holding my breath). If you know the contact tree/web, and you have virus samples from everyone infected, you can potentially use mutations to deduce the most likely direction of spread. It's not a guarantee, but minor mutations do persist.
Honestly, nothing about this story makes any sense. It's a complete disaster and a complete failure of the WH medical team (I don't strictly speaking blame them - Trump corrupts everything around him absolutely and renders everyone incompetent), and I don't think we can trust that they are adhering to any of the protocols.
The timeline is just very mysterious. I am not saying it's a conspiracy, I just think that in general we have been lied to about what has actually been done to prevent coronavirus from infecting our president, and the timeline leading up to this catastrophe.
It particularly relevant, because potentially Joe Biden is also at risk due to the debate 48 hours ago. That guy needs to take shelter in his basement ASAP and stay there until November 3rd, and possibly even until January 20th. This is no joke and it puts the entire world at risk to do otherwise.
Here are some musings:

IF Trump (and everyone else on the Trump team at the debate) is ACTUALLY being tested daily, and the Trump campaign is not actively trying to infect Biden (this "strategy" would make sense for them), then most likely Biden is at low risk.
