His mode of behavior has convinced a fair chunk of people to be totally reckless. Rallies or no that's how they're going through life these days.

They generally aren't provided with the opportunity to pack in tight & cheer at the top of their lungs like a Trump rally. The fact that he's doing it also provides constant reinforcement for bad behavior.

Let him rally. He's not winning new votes that way and it's less time he's in the white house doing anything destructive.

At this point all the rallies will accomplish is hospitalizing more of his locked in voters. He has no strategy to gain non-base voters and he's blown up all the bridges one would use to reach them.

He's still got a bandage on his right hand departing for his FL rally.

Probably enough steroid pumping through his veins that he doesn't need the plane to get there.

Given the bandage present is quite a bit larger than what one would expect for a DC’d (discontinued) IV site, I’d be willing to wager it’s actually covering an in-dwelling IV port.

Aren't the people that attend rallies that already have their Made in China MAGA hat and trump XXXL t-shirt already going to vote for him anyway?

Also people dumb enough to go to large gatherings without a mask.

Looking into this more, Trump tested negative on an antigen card, which is not a CDC-recommended method to determine infectiousness.

Buzzfeed -
"Abbott’s BinaxNow test has a sensitivity rate of 97.1%, according to the company, meaning it will return false-negative results for about 3% of people who are infected and should have tested positive. The company also recommends that in patients who are beyond a week from when their symptoms started, negative results “should be treated as presumptive” and confirmed with a PCR test. “Negative results do not rule out SARS-CoV-2 infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or patient management decisions, including infection control decisions,” company documents state."

This likely means that Trump is still testing positive on PCR tests. Conley continues to release selective information in an attempt to get Trump back on the campaign trail.

Desperate men to stupid things. Desperate men who are morons do things exactly like Trump is doing.

Without the White House to shelter him and keep the authorities off his back, he'd be picked apart so clean by a Biden led Justice Dept. & State Courts all that'd be left of him are the echoes and stench of his rally speeches and a whole lot'ta Trumpies wandering around aimlessly looking for and hoping another narcissistic pathological liar exactly like Trump comes a-knocking on their foreheads.

Is he really saying what he seems to be saying there? It's such a short clip and he's so incoherent (as always) that it's hard to tell for sure. But the way his crowd cheer madly no matter what nonsense he comes out with is really quite something.

He has received three nominations for the 2020 prize. But of course he words it such that it sounds like he's been nominated for 3 or 4 different prizes or that he has won 3 or 4 different prizes. He assumes correctly that none of his followers will try to verify that information.

Of course he's still PCR positive. Yet that is not how you determine whether people are infectious either. They are wasting tests to try and determine something that's already been clinically determined and for which the testing wouldn't prove anyway. I'd need to look at more data, but if his antigen test were positive at this point it would raise flags for me.

Then there's Drooliani saying shit like this today:

At the event in Northeast Philadelphia, Giuliani spoke off the cuff about issues such as the Democratic Party being “controlled” by Black Lives Matter and what he described as the president’s outstanding handling of the “Chinese Communist virus.”

“People don’t die of this disease anymore,” he said, adding that Democrats were overblowing COVID because they wanted to frighten people.

That was 16 days ago, I would guess she got exposed doing something else really stupid, more recently.

Unless she was asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic in the last 2 weeks and decided to get tested for the first time because of known exposure, I agree this would not fit the timeline of contracting the illness at the Rose Garden event

For what it's worth, news is that Baron tested positive too .

Looks like that happened at the same time Trump & Melania tested positive. Apparently he's testing negative now. I guess the White House said he was negative at the beginning and just never updated that. Who would have thought they'd do something like that?
