Announcing his impending return earlier on Monday, Trump said he was feeling better than “20 years ago” after the therapy. However, not everybody rejoiced at the 74-year-old’s apparent improvement. 
The president’s short stint at the hospital prompted Democrats to accuse him of politicizing his illness. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-California) lambasted Trump for spending too little time at the facility, arguing that he might become “a long-hauler.” The term is used to describe a Covid-19 patient, who tests negative but is experiencing long-term debilitating effects from the virus, such as severe fatigue and impaired memory.
"He should not be dealing with it politically to make it look like he overcame the virus because he's had such good policies...He has been very destructive and dangerous to the country," Pelosi told MSNBC on Monday.
It wasn't just Democrats blasting the president, either. Former New Jersey governor and EPA administrator in the George W. Bush administration, Christine Todd Whitman, tweeted that Trump’s “irresponsibility” was “shocking,” referring to a string of tweets in which the president told fellow Americans “not to be afraid” of Covid-19.
