In her own tweet about 30 minutes later, Mrs. Trump wrote that the first couple were \u201cfeeling good,\u201d<\/a> but the White House did not say whether they were experiencing symptoms. The president\u2019s physician said he could carry out his duties \u201cwithout disruption\u201d from the Executive Mansion.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n
