CNN White House reporter Jim Acosta mocked President Trump upon his return from Walter Reed National Military Medical Center Monday evening, calling Trump “Coronavirus in Chief” in a post on Twitter. Acosta also called Trump “Patient Zero” and “Emperor” on CNN.
Acosta, like most reporters, was apoplectic that Trump took his mask off after climbing the steps to the Truman Balcony on the South Portico of the White House residence.

‘Media: @Acosta to @wolfblitzer: “Keep in mind this is not just the president returning to the @WhiteHouse, this may be Patient Zero. This is the #virus coming back to the White House. It is eerily quiet inside the corridors of the West Wing. The emperor has no staff tonight.”
