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.

Geez, this is like a classic @CatParty A&H bait article... wait a minute
 
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.
No, like actual skeletons rising from the grave
 
If Deus Ex taught me anything, it's that there's more than enough ambrosia lying around for people like trump to cure the plague with

Bolsonaro and Bojo seem to have gotten over the coof. I think Trump's a lot older, and his diet is certainly in question, but the man's got energy to spare - so that plus the treatments, eh, who knows? But man, if he were to decide to taper back (as if) and the ticket became Pence/Cruz, like. There goes the entire platform of the democrats: "we aren't trump."
 
I’m getting burned by all the hot takes on twitter. InB4 he’s better in a few days and says “I’m fine it’s no big deal.”

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?

What if this was Biden then some retards on the right would not do the same shit?

Got to clutch those pearls right. This very forum would be hooting and holoring if Biden had it.
 
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.

And call it a hoax, never mind the fact that cdc hates Trump as a whole.
