Trump is obese, eats like poo poo, doesn't sleep, doesn't exercise, and likely has a vitamin D deficiency. Corona doesn't have to kill him for him to get a very bad clinical outcome. I know we're all joking about a zoom town hall, but by the time for the debate, if Trump doesn't end up asymptomatic, he could be seriously unwell.

There's no way he'd admit an illness willingly, especially not a self perceived big strong tough guy.

This is a ploy to get out of the next debate. Nothing more.

I hope that we don't forget how a few months ago the president said that he was taking hydroxychloroquine as a preventative, especially since a bunch of stupid awful people are going to come out yelling that the president is gonna be fine as long as he takes it.

I don't want him to die until he sees himself loses the election decisively then he can wheeze through a concession speech and collapse in front of cheering millions right before he finds the breath to call for a militia uprising.

The Trump Presidential Library is a bookshelf in the Trump Tower giftshop with all of his ghostwritten books on it, for sale. One of the bookends is an urn.

From what I've read about the typical course of disease, the second week after infection is usually when things get really bad, but he'll probably develop symptoms in 3-4 days or so. If his early symptoms are signifcant that's not good news for Donnie.

Don't you tell me my business again.

quote:

Under the 25th Amendment, a medically incapacitated president has the option of temporarily transferring power to the vice president and can reclaim his authority whenever he deems himself fit for duty.

Since the amendment was ratified in 1967, presidents have done so only three times. In 1985, President Ronald Reagan underwent a colonoscopy and briefly turned over power to Vice President George Bush, although he did not explicitly cite the amendment in doing so. President George W. Bush did invoke the amendment twice in temporarily turning over power to Vice President Dick Cheney during colonoscopies in 2002 and 2007.

So Reagan did this for a colonoscopy and not when he was shot?

The former is already happening, while the latter will only occur if he is powerless to stop it. They knew Hicks was sick days ago, and that Trump was acting lethargic before the final testing diagnosis, and they hid it until it leaked to the media. Now they have absolutely no plan and everyone in Trump's inner circle has been exposed to him. Today is going to be an infinite shitshow.

It would be really poetic if Hope Hicks wasn't patient zero for the White House, but through contact tracing we find out that in fact Donnie really is a superspreader
