If they cough we should swear in the VP? He's got a virus, it's being treated, he'll be fine before the end of the week. Quick, I think Trump stubbed his toe...put him down or at least remove him from office because we have no other ways of getting him out now!!
Cinga Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 1 hour ago, SectionC3 said: Seems like the President is struggling with COVID-19. Let’s review the salient information: 1. Friday sees him sent to Walter Reed as a “precautionary measure.” BS. He has outstanding medical care available to him at his residence. There’s no need to go to a hospital “on spec” unless the situation is more dangerous than the public has been told. 2. On Friday, a President obsessively concerned with image and television ratings shoots a hamfisted video saying he “thinks” things will turn out well. Bad lighting, no mic, odd setting (probably the WH residence; not the Oval Office). Apparently he does not have the time or strength to do such a thing as put on a “lav” mic or take a better shot. 3. He is taken to Walter Reed by helicopter. Seems strange, given that it’s a short ride and he took the car for his prior WH health event. 4. Then the helicopter sits there for about half an hour before Trump can take the short walk to get in. Obviously this is a dog and pony show; he wants to convey strength by walking to the chopper. But doesn’t interact with the media on the way out (uncharacteristic for him, to be sure). Strange. 5. Strangely silent on Twitter and Fox & Friends that day. Would be easy for him to call his pals at Fox and explain that he’s doing fine, has a mild case, the virus is a hoax, he gnawed on hyroxycholorquine and is feeling better, etc. But doesn’t do it. 6. Then it turns out that he actually received supplemental oxygen on Friday as well as a “compassionate use” treatment. Odd that POTUS receives an unproven treatment that theoretically could do more harm than good. Does not sound like a mild case of COVID. 7. Goes to Walter Reed, then stays basically silent on Saturday, save for a couple of “dog and pony” images that the Internet quickly recognizes as staged (signing a blank piece of paper - a metaphor for his presidency, if ever there was one; metadata shows images taken about 10 minutes apart in time in different rooms). 8. But here’s the big tell. The video from Saturday was about 10 seconds long, and it had to be edited (likely to eliminate a cough). How hard is it to reshoot a 10-second video? Not hard at all. The simple solution if the subject coughs during the take is to re-shoot. But they didn’t re-shoot. Was it because they couldn’t? Speculation, but with an image-conscious president it seems likely that they would have done another take to get it “right” if he was capable of getting through 10 seconds without coughing. 9. Saturday tells us that POTUS also gets dexamethasone. Skips right past the hydroxychloroquine and Lysol and brings in the big guns reserved for moderate to severe cases of COVID. Not good. Fits with the bad blood oxygen information and news that he was on supplemental oxygen. 10. Feeling better this morning. Tweet storm. Usual nonsense. But this is after stupid parade on Sunday (another dog and pony show) that needlessly put Secret Service at risk so he could convey an image of health. Why not call Fox & Friends? Is it because he can’t do it without hacking up a lung? That’s the speculation here. Something definitely is up with this guy. He may well go back to the WH today or tomorrow. But that doesn’t mean he’s out of the woods. And it doesn’t mean that he hasn’t had serious COVID complications that he has concealed both from the public and those with the power to catalyze use of the 25th amendment. How a guy on dexamethasone and struggling with COVID can keep the nuke codes is beyond me. But these are the times in which we live. Discuss. Rachel Maddow, is that you? You could basically put her opening line, "What if....?" in place on all the line numbers to fit her conspiracy narratives.

Actually, I can unbiasly ask that question unlike some other people... It had nothing to do with Corona and everything to do with a clear neurological condition which was much worse. Literally curious if OP believed Hillary health whistle-blowers were conspiracy nuts or if they had legitimate concerns... Actually I pose the same question to you Tib, or can you not answer me without adhominum attacks? Dumb question. Hillary has nothing to do with this. You are right though, you have a perfect right to ask stupid questions. You are good at it 1

All_Pro_Bills Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 I think the lefties are going to have another meltdown when Trump walks back into the White House. They were jumping for joy about his impending death over the weekend only to wake up this morning to the "bad" news. He's feeling better! The Russia hoax, the Ukraine hoax, impeachment, and all the other swings and misses of almost 4 years and now it looks like COVID couldn't kill the undead President. Micheal Moore and others have suggested Trump is faking it. I expect Trump to ask if you really believe that Michael why don't you visit me so I can sneeze in your face? Who needs "reality TV" when we've got all this drama? 1

Did you think people saying Hillary had legitimate health concerns were conspiracy theorists or not??? My answer to your question is this: I think he will be fine, his diet scares me as does his apparently weak adrenal glands when it comes to complications.What I truly fear is that he doesn't have the best unbiased health care that truly has his welfare in mind as there are too many lunatics that would love to see him out of office by any means. Even if he has a long term recovery, it shouldn't affect his ability to lead...if anything now for all the people saying he is misinformed on it, he has the personal experience to back his decisions.
