Donald Trump has tested positive for COVID-19

[Bunny Tracks]

Meh, superstitious nonsense. Humans love to look for patterns and apply meaning when there is none.

That would make 9 years divisible by 20 since 1840 right? I don’t think 7 have died in office have they? Also how many presidents not ending in 5 have died in bad circumstances? Humans like finding patterns. Doesn’t mean they are correct.

Again, I don't believe either of them are a real thing. I just think they're both incredibly interesting, and worth bringing up.

Given his age and health, he could be at elevated risk.

The only people I know directly who've had confirmed Covid thought it was a bad cold and made a full recovery in a couple of weeks. Trump seems to have good luck and be very hearty, plus he has the best medical attention you can get, so I'm going to be surprisedpikachuface if he actually gets desperately ill or dies from this. He's probably most at risk by being under constant stress for four years, though.

Out of Clinton, Dubya, and Obama, Trump seems to be the most spry and least changed in terms of looks. He probably loves the job.

I'll take the under. The usual suspect political commentators on Twitter are already there. I think the articles will be up by noon today.

Interesting. I can't say I disagree with the reasoning.

I'm taking the over on the basis that I think for the media to really lay the case out they need to line up an "anonymous source" first which "might take some time".

I give it less than a day before we start seeing small fry journalists pumping out clickbait.

They are ALREADY pumping out the takes between "its a PR stunt" and "he fully deserves this because he personally choked the 200k americans to death", im ok with the rave crab party but trying to party and at the same time act like you got the moral high ground is fake and gay

Hey man, at least we waited until after Ginsburg expired to throw the crab rave. These people have no class, I swear.

Johnson had it, and whilst it was a bit touch and go he came through it in the end. However this plays out for Trump, he will either be dead or on his way to recovery by the time the elections kick off, so one way or another you lot will know if he is on the ticket or not. Watching the left cum over the thought of him dying is quite funny, really shows their compassion. Also love them saying the 200'000 odd deaths in America are all basically on him, like every other country on Earth hasn't also been ravaged by it as well to some degree (America doing pretty well all things considered).

Hope he gets better, the king of shit posters must never leave.

The feeling's kinda setting in for me bros.

I'm officially jaded of Clown World. It can't go any lower and it certainly can't go any higher. I'm still on the ride, but as I continue to go on the ride all I see is life fading before my eyes when it comes to the internet. Life has more beauties on the outside than it does inside the internet. On this site and the world at large, you see the very worst from the internet, but when you go outside when you walk around and see people driving to places, walking, just having a normal time, you realize that at the end of the day it's all a farce. Within all the outrage, within all of our giggling, within all of our tomfoolery, none of this really matters. At the end of the day, what really matters is the value of life and how you spend it and too long have I spent it here.

So all I can really say in terms of this affair is that with all due respect I hope the president of the United States heals from this and he probably will, but I'm probably going to stop engaging in these kinds of internet affairs. The celebration of death or the anticipation of a deadpool or whatnot and shit. Deep down I want it because I feed off of that negativity, but it's all so tiresome and really a useless endeavor.

I could care less if Trump dies, and seeing as he's fat and old that seems like a good possibility. I doubt he's going to win this election anyway after 4 years of smear jobs on a daily basis by the entire media establishment.

However for the love of God, Trump better last long enough to affirm the new Supreme Court Justice. I can deal with a Biden/Kamala Presidency as long as I know the Supreme Court is there to tard wrangle them from doing anything extremely stupid.

Oh Christ. Goodbye women's rights and hello segeration I suppose. In the name of Jesus.

I’m okay with stripping females of the right to vote, but reinstating the Chinese Exclusion Act is a little too far.

 

[wilderbeans]

And what, may I ask, is that?

Lurk more!!!!!!!!!!!!! or to quote Eric Cooke : nobody cares!!!!!!

Power leveling and tmi I think? I don’t know, I’m newer than you

Thanks not even trying to sympathy plea for the past few days or so, I've been shutting off using the more negative parts of internet because the ride just slows and tires, ya know. I go all out, but I come back with nothing.

Not meaning to be rude but this is literally what people mean by "go outside dude", the internet is a magnifying glass of the worse wretches that society has to offer from any and all sides, it twist your perception by making you think internet equals IRL, reality is most people don't give a shit and social media is a big waste of time for any work that doesn't require networking, if you couldn't see this you really need to stay away

 

[エボラちゃん]

Both the left and the right are over-reacting on this.
If anything, Trump's more likely to perish from an (")unfortunate(") medical error.

He's probably going to be fine.

I'm quite aware the internet ain't reality, I know that to be true.

It's just the fact of the matter of the continuation of using it. The world is beautiful, very much so, despite its many flaws, so why use the internet. I've already cut out shit like TV in my life, probably will slowly start to cut out parts of the interwebs too.
