President and first Lady test positive for Covid-19 (Trumps)

[SteveGrabowski]

If Trump had contracted COVID you'd have never heard about it until either 1. he had kicked it and could do a victory lap or 2. he was hospitalized and near death. I'm calling bullshit, total bullshit.

 

[SteveGrabowski]

Think about it, there is no upside for faking this, because he has been a total tool about mask wearing. He may have a false positive though.

He gets to skip the town hall debate he would have crashed and burned in like the last town hall he did

Yeah.. I guess this is good. Debates will probably be cancelled. Poor melania though. Stuck with that bag of germs, that festering pus ball for 14 days.

Hope Hicks is Trump's inner circle. With him all day every day. Close proximity, closed air environments. With Trump at the debate, and the rally the next day. She is symptomatic. No way in hell Trump testing positive at this moment is anything short of the real deal.

When was the last time he hugged Stephen Miller?

 

[alien42]

i heard on NPR about an hour ago that Hope Hicks tested positive and she was on Air Force 1 with Trump in the past day or two so i think it's true.

so uhhh, ummmm


ahahahaahahahaha, karma's a bitch.

If there is a silver lining...kinda hard to do confirmation hearings now:

That guy is dead inside already. He has nothing to lose.

:mindboggle:

The implications of this are astonishing.

we can only hope...

 

[Sunburn74]

Yeah. I mean if they get COVID too (US senators) then confirmation has to be delayed and etc etc. Real trickle down effects

This Simpson’s screencap is all over Twitter now. I know trolls are gonna troll, but this is a huge national security threat now so forgive me if I don’t share your glee.

Also, take a look at the market futures right now. Might have to halt trading tomorrow morning.

Trump is one of the greatest national security threats we have ever seen, not sure how his getting Covid-19 increases that in any way. as far as the markets go, they are so disconnected from reality it's a joke. the day after that shitshow of a debate they were up so i don't take much stock (pun intended) in the markets anymore.

 

[sportage]

Well.... China finally succeeded. Good play Xi Jinping. All this time Trump was praising Putin, when Trump should have been praising YOU chairman Xi. That’ll teach him.

 

[eelw]

Unless we see video of him actually sick, I’m suspicious of all of this. I’ve said before, pretend to be sick so he can get out of the election.

Hope Hicks is Trump's inner circle. With him all day every day. Close proximity, closed air environments. With Trump at the debate, and the rally the next day. She is symptomatic. No way in hell Trump testing positive at this moment is anything short of the real deal.

So now we believe the word of Hope Hicks?

 

[sportage]

Hey... send him a stimulus check.

 

[MtnMan]

If he doesn’t get severe symptoms then expect him to be even more callous.

That is a given, just the sniffles, open the country. People die because they don't like me and want me to look bad.

DT has access to the best medical care in the world. This is what's going to happen:

1) His twitter account will keep twitting that he's fine
2) No matter how rough he has it, there is a good chance he survives
3) He comes back and simultaneously touts that he's tough enough to beat the killer "chyna vyrus" and that "see its not actually that dangerous, this is all a conspiracy to unseat me"

 

[skyking]

none of that matters. He's toast as far as I can tell. The market is going to take a yuuge dump as soon as it opens. It is on him.

 

[sportage]

Well, if Trump doesn’t get sick and recovers with no issues then Trump can say he is better health wise to be president than Biden who hasn’t had COVID but could get it. We know how Trump is.

The way I see it, the ghosts of some 207,000 dead Americans can now Rest In Peace. Seriously.

 

[MtnMan]

He's in good hands, I'm sure Dr. Atlas is on his speed dial.

Hmm... not necessarily. The mortality of COVID in his age group is like 10%.
Having access to the best medicine isn't going to change that much because COVID currently is essentially untreatable. You either recover with medical support like ventilators and etc or your die. Even remdesivir doesn't change living and dying. It only shortens the duration of symptoms amongst those who lived by 1 day or so I believe.
What we need to know are his underlying medical conditions. We already know he is obese (this is not good for COVID). We don't know if he has heart or lung problems or a cancer history or whatever.

Best case scenario Meadows also infected and spreads it to Moscow Mitch. Totally kills SCOTUS procedure now.

 

[MtnMan]

The fact that Hope Hicks tested positive was not released by the WH, it was leaked the day after she tested positive. Without that being leaked would we know that anyone in the WH had COVID.

 

[Sunburn74]

Yeah they all have to get tested and given known COVID attack rates its very likely meadows or mcconnell or even the nominee herself could have acquired it.
