Trump campaign donating meals to hospitals during coronavirus crisis
Fox News, Apr 2, 2020

EXCLUSIVE: The Trump campaign has been donating meals to hospitals across the country to feed doctors, nurses and first responders on the front lines of the coronavirus battle, Fox News has learned.

Since last Thursday, President Trump’s reelection campaign has been calling up local restaurants and ordering large amounts of food to be delivered to more than a dozen hospitals in New York, New Jersey, Washington state and Michigan. The campaign has been placing these orders anonymously, but Fox News learned about the effort — and sources confirmed it.

One source told Fox News that the campaign was looking to not only express gratitude for first responders treating patients with COVID-19, but to support local restaurants.

“They’re doing it as a donor who cares,” one source told Fox News. “So nothing politically is tied to it. ... We’re just trying to, you know, show a thank you.”

“They’re trying to send things that are like, local restaurants that may need support [and] cool restaurant icons of the area that may need the business,” one source said.

The source told Fox News that the campaign has already spent tens of thousands of dollars on the effort, which they plan to expand in the coming days and weeks.

An' how much of that $18,000,000 that Bloomingidiot donated to the Dis-Loyal Opposition National Committee went to relief charities? Not much left after the Chappaquaw Crime Cartel took their taste.

Speaking of mini-Mike --- where the hell is he?  His beloved Manhattan is suffering and he's nowhere.  Could he be social distancing at his estate in Bermuda

Have Progs demanded, yet, that hospitals refuse the donated meals?

Good call.
Frankly, if I was him, that's probably where I'd be right now.
And anyone who was let into the place would be tested beforehand with one of the new "quick test" kits...
