He’s had other people post as him all the time. It doesn’t mean that they’re trying to make it look like he’s fine. Although that is definitely what they are doing.

Yea this is not surprising. This foreshadows that Trump is not going to be able to politically say the virus isn't a big deal. He's going to have to now take it seriously. It will be up to democrats to beat him to the old el paso.

You just named the one thing that might improve his chances of getting re-elected. Fortunately he’s never managed to learn anything before now.

So it can take like 10 days from the onset of symptoms before things quickly spiral and the patient needs to be sent to the ICU. So Trump will be miserable and in fear for a long time.

He has been miserable and in fear for approximately four to forty years now.

The rate this is progressing (including "hey folks he's out of the woods, the worst is over") is starting to sound like the whole thing is a sham and they just can't resist moving from PHASE 5 to PHASE 6 of the rehearsed script in a matter of hours instead of, like, weeks as it would be if they were committed to authenticity

Of course what it really means is Trump is still days away from even starting to go properly downhill

He was hospitalized multiple times over months before his death and NYT reported cerebral hemorrhaging after a fall. Never trust this admin but I don't think it's right to be treating his death by rona as a fact either.

A doctor walks up with a "Live, Laugh, Love" sign to Trump.

"Where are you going to hang that?" Trump asks.

"Oh, no, we're not hanging it, I need you to pick two from this sign."

"i incorrectly used the term 72 hours" covers both (a) 72 hours is wrong and (b) its true but i meant to use a vaguer term to mislead people

that said i saw the full statement and the rest of it eliminates the ambiguity. too bad it's not true!

Right? Like, they can't even get him up enough to get Trump in a bathrobe waiving, grinning and making antic gestures from a hospital window. Or an image of him sitting at a table in 'presidential pajamas' having a conversation with some official and looking seriously at a paper.

He's so weak right now they can't even stage a low effort photo op.

I feel like this whole thing is a lose-lose for Trump.

Either he dies (which, arguably, is a loss for him) or he survives, but his survival is gonna take the wind out of him, yet any and all good will he might've gained after this will be swept away when he starts his usual hostile tweeting, snarling and flailing about traitors, witch hunt and LAW & ORDER.

You know it'll happen. If he lives the media will be groveling to get the first interview with him and describing how he's a changed man.

He will be loving it and the idiots who watch reality TV or "hate watch" his normal tweets will be eating it up.

They're absolutely spineless and have zero convictions about anything they've claimed he is a symbol of, so he only needs to be close to death for the rehabilitation to begin.

I almost think that Trump is MORE likely to die because it's statistically unlikely. I mean, "things that should be statistically improbable happening" is the one thing that's been consistent with his presidency.

If this was in any way a normal functioning administration Pence would currently be acting President. Trump would have consented to the 25th for the duration of this medical emergency and that would be that. This is not normal.

Did this not happen?, and more importantly, is it normal for the public to be informed when it does happen? Like the previous times regarding Reagan etc?

I mean even loving Bautista the wrestler slash large Marvel man figured out what a joke it is that these people went right from 'the president is a dangerous, fascist, russian agent' to 'we must be kind to our fallen president, pray with me for his warrior's heart'.

If you're in the media and haven't figured out how obvious this scam is then you're less equipped to do your job than Dave Big Dick Bautista.
