So…..

I doubt that.

It seems that everyone caught it at the announcement, and people who are going to have symptoms all began showing symptoms on or after Wednesday.

If Trump had it earlier, it seems quite unlikely that he would be asymptomatic from Saturday to Tuesday, but have had enough viral load in him on Saturday to spread it to the others.

My theory is either Amy Barrett was still contagious, or some of her kids were, but have been completely asymptomatic.

And for Trump to need to go to hospital less than 2 days after his first symptoms is a really bad sign.

Given the care and attention repugs pay to masking and social distancing, the spreader could have been almost anyone there. Or several someones. We may never know, and at the least it will take quite a while to figure it out. And real scientists doing the figuring.
