I was expecting the October surprise to be a skeleton war.

Dear Arrogant, Careless Idiot-In-Chief: Welcome To The Coronavirus Club
Looks like Donald Trump (and Melania "Give Me A Fucking Break" Trump) are going to get a little adventure in empathy. Whee!
Dear Trumps: if you're lucky enough to get the so-called "mild" version that doesn't require hospitalization, here's the first thing: The symptoms will keep changing.
Right now, Jonathan Lemire is on my teevee saying you had a "raspy throat" the other day. Ooops! This is the first thing: The sore throat, according to me and the other people I know who had it, feels like someone took a razor blade and slashed your throat, and it stays that way for a while. (Try the Vitamin C and zinc lozenges. They do help.)
It took several months before my sore throat finally went away. I hope yours doesn't last that long, I know how you love to yell.
You may or may not have a fever. (I didn't.) You may feel incredibly cold, like you were trapped in a walk-in freezer, yet still show a normal temperature. Whatever! Luckily for you, you have easy access to medical care and tests -- something you made almost impossible for the rest of us in the early stages of this pandemic. But bygones!
The chest tightness is scary as hell. It feels like a grand piano has fallen on your chest! If you're "lucky" like me, it will pass. If it doesn't, well, you have doctors watching you closely.
Maybe the scariest part is, the virus feels like it's knocking on the door of every organ and system in your body, looking for a way in.
After a few weeks, you feel better. If you're really lucky, it stays that way.
If you're not lucky, and you're one of the people like me who has what they call "long haul covid," you have several awful months ahead of you. You will keep relapsing, and during those relapses, you will suffer from enormous, crushing fatigue. Three-naps-a-day fatigue. (And no, Adderall won't help. In fact, if you have heart damage, you will have to stop tooting.)
If you can get past the terror, it's actually kind of interesting to observe your body reacting to this bug you and your administration inflicted on millions by so carelessly ignoring it. A couple of times, my face swelled up and hurt. One of the warning signs of another relapse for me was, my tongue swelled up, too. My hands hurt for quite a while. Neuropathy in my feet, too.
Oh, and the weird blood pressure spikes are scary, too. That time my BP went up to 265/154? Yeah, scared the crap out of me, especially since I normally have blood pressure on the low side.
From what I read, it can also cause severe anxiety symptoms, completely separate from the fact that you're already pretty anxious about being sick for months on end. (That doesn't help with the chest tightness.)
A couple of times, I felt like I couldn't quite catch my breath. Pretty frightening.
Anyway, good luck with that. I really wouldn't wish this on anyone, but I do get to be angry at the fact that your narcissism and willful ignorance made sure so many other people experienced this before you did, with over 200,000 dead.
And if you're looking for a face-saving measure out of your impending crushing defeat, well, you could always pull out of the race.
I thought that's what McConnell and Pelosi fighting over the nomination was. I just wish we had a Coliseum we could've thrown them in to fight to the death for American amusement. Seriously when are we going full Idiocracy with this shit, at least then we could laugh.I was expecting the October surprise to be a skeleton war.
Can't the right just counter that with their KEK magic or something? I want to see a "magic" Twitter battle.They're gonna curse him through Twitter. He better be careful, Twitter curses actually work and have effects on the real world, bigly.
No, like actual skeletons rising from the graveI thought that's what McConnell and Pelosi fighting over the nomination was. I just wish we had a Coliseum we could've thrown them in to fight to the death for American amusement. Seriously when are we going full Idiocracy with this shit, at least then we could laugh.
And the reaction from Liberals and Democrats is just sickening. I didn't like Obama and I don't like Biden, but I would never wish death on them or have them get infected with Corona-Chan.
I'm not too worried. From what we've seen in the last four years is that President Trump is one tough old buzzard. He and the first lady will pull through this. Though I can imagine that when the test came back positive for Trump he was saying, "Well that sucks."
So can we just put aside political differences and wish him and Melania well?
Ah yeah, I guess I am beingYeah he's so devastated and ravaged by it he didn't even know he had it until he took a test
Ah yeah, I guess I am beingabout our fatty in chief dying
I find it somewhat disconcerting that a politician getting the coof can so drastically increase their approval rating. What's the rationale behind that? "I think this guy's a fuckwit but now that he got sick we totally see eye to eye."
And call it a hoax, never mind the fact that cdc hates Trump as a whole.Crossposting from the A&N counterpart thread:
If (really when) Trump beats this, a lot of very strong narratives and presumptions about coronavirus will likely die out in the eyes of many people. Other people will probably just get really, really, really mad.
Or the great multilayered simulation we live in trolls everyone yet again and it's revealed that it was a false positive all along.
Holy shit. What if Trump and Biden both die before the election. What happens then?
