Trump now in hospital

I don't think it is Democrats in general but just some fanatics, anyway it's quite a shame to act like that.

No I honestly think a majority of Democrats don't just want Trump to lose they want him dead. I know it's a small sample size but just look at the comments. Not a decent person to be found.

Why would they use something untested/experimental if his condition was not serious?


To speed recovery, from what I gathered reading. He walked out to the helicopter for the ride, looked ok. They say mild symptoms .. cough and headache. Immediate access to care and constant monitoring does make sense, a lot more sense than Boris Johnson who waited until he was serious before doing anything about it.


Hmm, if Trump had to be hospitalized this soon after the debate, chances are that it was already contagious by the time the debate happened.

Pretty sure I've read that all participants, staff, etc for the debate were tested and negative. Can't remember where I saw that, but I can't imagine they would have even had it without same day testing. He isn't 'being hospitalized' because he needs to be, that was pretty obvious when he walked out on camera today. He also posted a short video on Twitter today and looks fine.

we'll have to see how this turns out, it took Herman Cain less than 2 weeks to go from fine to "Very Not Fine".

I would be curious to see the timeline if he did kick the bucket or otherwise get taken out of play at this juncture. As it stands it will probably be reasonably fun -- at his age and weight I can't imagine this will be a quick recovery and so much does depend upon how you look and your appearance of health (they have known that for about 60 years at this point https://constitutioncenter.org/blog/the-debate-that-changed-the-world-of-politics ). Probably got some good uppers, choice camera shots and whatnot though to fake it as and when, and posting silly one liners from a phone (or having someone else do it) is not too demanding. If this last run up to the big day is already looming and whatever feelings people have will be cemented during it then yeah.

If the democrats had such a hard time finding a suitable candidate (and arguably still failed) I can only imagine the last minute arrangements the other guys would have to pull here.
Rino takeover, neocons re establish, religious types return to the fore, did he truly change the party long term and thus someone else in his mould, libertarian?

Re: "untested"
In what regard? Such things have been a protocol for quite some time in a lot of different things, and have a pretty substantial basis behind them. Whether this particular concoction is that good (and I can only imagine the protocols in place here for treating el presidente, indeed I would be shocked if they did not have a nice recovered victim of otherwise matching whatever you need matching in these scenarios waiting in the wings as it were) I would say it has a basis in reality, unlike huffing or shooting bleach and random not even previously noted as being antiviral medicines.

Fine, I'll say it. I hope he joins the 200,000 he's responsible for.
The failure of your state and local government is not the failure of the federal government sweet cheeks. You could argue, oh state and local were not prepared and I can argue that being prepared has nothing to do with it. It is not a matter of being prepared, its a matter of doing your job as a leader and your political party failed at being leaders.

04:34 Trump's campaign manager Bill Stepien, has also tested positive for the coronavirus.

Campaign spokesman Tim Murtaugh confirmed the news on Saturday, which was first reported by Politico.

Politico said Stepien received his diagnosis Friday and is experiencing "mild flu-like symptoms."

Ronna McDaniel, the chairwoman of the Republican National Committee, also announced Friday that she had tested positive, joining Trump, the first lady, top aide Hope Hicks and numerous others.

Stepien, who joined Trump at Tuesday's first presidential debate, plans to quarantine until he recovers.

04:00 Alongside Remdesivir, Trump is being treated with an experimental drug
Drugs Trump is treated with:

Antibodies, Remdesivir;

The White House has stated that both the president and the first lady are showing mild symptoms. However, the virus may start showing worse effects during the second week, which is when patients usually deteriorate.

Not a surprise at all. China started the virus you ignorant piece of crap not Trump. No matter what you think there wouldn't have been 0 deaths no matter who the president was so your comment is so dumb. In fact the first estimation was 2.2 million deaths in America. That points to Trump doing an excellent job. But stay in your delusional safe space if it makes you happy.
:blink:
Who the fuck are you trying to convince?

Look... I don't know what kind of solitary fantasy world you live in and frankly I don't care, but in this world Trump publicly estimated the virus death toll always extremely low. Even at the sharpest peak in April, he estimated the death toll at most at 60'000.

So don't act as if Trump did anything he could because he did the exact opposite. And while you're entitled to your fantasy, at least understand that it's YOUR 'delusional safe space'. America is in a worse spot than it should have been because he sowed division and withheld information, and it's only normal that people are pissed at him for it. That's why so many aren't sorry for him. Again : you don't have to agree with them... Just show some goddamn sympathy, okay? The US lost more people than in most modern wars combined,so a little leadership shouldn't have been too much to ask for. :angry:
