BREAKING NEWS – New York City, New York – MSNBC host Joy Reid raised eyebrows for suggesting that President Trump was fabricating his coronavirus diagnosis to “get out of the debates.”

However, hours before it was announced that the president was being transported to Walter Reed Medical Center for a lengthy hospital stay, the “ReidOut” host echoed claims that her “friends” were sending her via text.

“Here’s how wrecked Trump’s credibility is at this point: I’ve got a cellphone full of texts from people who aren’t sure whether to believe Trump actually has covid. ‘He lies so much,’ one friend just texted. ‘Is he just doing this to get out of the debates?’ others are texting,” Reid tweeted.

Reid was alluding to the fallout from the chaotic presidential debate and the growing tensions between the Presidential Debate Commission and the Trump campaign over potential rule changes including allowing moderators to cut the microphones of disruptive candidates.

She then concluded her show by saying, “The reason why I think it’s possible  that my friends are right about Trump trying to get out of the debate, is because they were wrong about him getting nominated, wrong about him beating Hillary, wrong about the Mueller Report, and wrong about him getting removed from office after the impeachment hearing. So according to the law of averages, my liberal friends will eventually get something right regarding Trump, instead of being wrong every time since 2016.”
