Chris Wallace says Donald Trump and his family arrived at the Cleveland debate venue too late to be tested for COVID-19 then refused doctors' requests to wear face masks - and now Fox New staff and stars including Lachlan Murdoch are having to be tested

Oct. 3 - Donald Trump and his family arrived in Cleveland for Tuesday night's debate too late to take the suggested COVID test, the moderator Chris Wallace has revealed. 


Wallace on Friday afternoon told his Fox News colleague Bill Hemmer that they were not tested.

'There was an honor system when it came to the people who came into the hall from the two campaigns,' Wallace said.
Wallace arrived in Cleveland on Sunday, in time to be tested.


'They couldn't be tested by the clinic,' Wallace said.

'They didn't arrive until Tuesday afternoon. So for them to get tested, there wouldn't have been enough time to have the test and have the debate at 9 that night. They didn't show up until 3, 4, 5 in the afternoon.'


Eleven people involved with setup and planning for Tuesday's presidential debate tested positive for the coronavirus after the event, the city of Cleveland said on Friday, without specifying their role.  continue to read
