Well, color me shocked. Based.
The doctors speak: Trump had two blood oxygen drops, was given extra medicine. Had high fever Friday morning and low blood O2 and got oxygen. They are proud to be who they are. President improving. Heart, liver, kidneys all okay. No side effects from trick medicine. Maybe discharge tomorrow.
Huh. So he did need that O2. Good on whichever commenter picked up on that fancy wording.

Doesn't corona do that thing where it gets better and then they suddenly decompensate? Seems potentially dubious to discharge him this early.

Or the de-compensation is what caused the need for oxygen? For all we know Trump has been positive for a while, and he may have had some fatigued days that he just brushed off as being tired from all of the actual work he's doing.
 
Looks like Trump will continue to receive treatment even after he leaves the White House. If he is leaving the hospital tomorrow or the day after, I'm curious about how he will communicate with the public and how they will continue to monitor his condition. Just because he might be feeling well now doesn't mean he does not have the virus.

Not fond of how he contradicted himself regarding Trump not having oxygen and then saying yes, he did receive supplemental oxygens twice.
 
The absolute state of The USA Today:

The most powerful individual on the planet is getting too much medical attention. Right.
 
There's satirical potential from both sides, but alas we can only see the stuff pointed at the right, and rather than good-natured parody, it's always malicious. Especially SNL has decided that instead of making it about jokes, it's about convincing people what to think, like they're dealing with children. Thus, the left can never be amusingly crazy or inept or over the top angry, only strong and bold straightmen to bounce the crazy right wingers off of. They've gotten so malicious about it, though, that they fail to be funny except accidentally - such as the early 2016 skits about Sean Spicer being a bundle of rage that beat up white house reporters with the podium. It was only accidentally funny because everyone finds journalists annoying enough to enjoy such a display. SNL was never fair and balanced, but at least they used to grab the low hanging fruit to pretend to be fair back in the early-Obama years. Most every other political humor outlet has been worse than SNL earlier than SNL.
Like I said somewhere else, it's like a person screaming a knock knock joke in your face with bloodshot rage in their eyes then shouting, "Isn't that funny? Say it's funny, fucker!"
The left doesn't have a shred of humor because the arguments aren't on their side.
It's just manipulation and hate.
 
Wasn't JFK also being given methamphetamine or morphine or something? I seem to recall a tale in which he went to a meeting with Krushchev and couldn't finish due to being too tweaked out.

In regards to Wilson and FDR: those were in the middle of world wars. An ailing president would make excellent propaganda for the enemy, so it makes sense they'd keep that under wraps.
He was on heavy steroids because of the Addison's. And those will fuck you up. Like hormonal treatments do. In Kennedy's case, he had practically no adrenal glands. I don't know the Khrushchev story.
 
Honestly, I wonder if Biden can even survive the coof. But then again, Biden isn't overweight like Trump is, and like the Prez, probably has Lazarus Pits doctors on standby. He does have a history of stroke. Who knows what other co-morbidities might be lurking?

Covid would be a mercy for him. I doubt he'll get it since whatever higher power there is decided Biden needed to run a presidential campaign as his mental facilities collapse.

"Yes, we've been giving Barron horse steroids. It's to protect him from the very awful, and very unforgiving Coronavirus. The China Plague. Unfortunately, they have the side effect of making him tremendously swole. The doctors expect him to be the size of a Clydesdale by the time he's 18." -Trump, probably.
The nigga grew 2 feet in a little under 4 years. Trump isn't a small guy either, last I checked he was a little over 6 feet, and Barron is towering over him.

If he sails through it will be great for Trump because now he can point out he's beat Corona but Biden hasn't even had it yet. Do you really want to elect a frail old man who might still get the Coof?
If Biden catches the coof now, Dems will try another impeachment, regardless of the election outcome. "BlumPf TrIeD tO MuRdEr bIdEN!"

Remind me which world war was underway in October 1919, when Woodrow Wilson suffered his stroke, and which one was being fought in 1921, when FDR came down with infantile paralysis.

So I was wrong, Trump did get supplemental oxygen for about an hour late Friday morning. Wasn't this before he left for the Walter Reed Military Medical Center? That said, it's good to hear he is improving as he should be.

My question is, what will happen after Trump gets discharged from the virus? How do they intend to quarantine him in the White House since he will not want to be locked down in his bedroom and how much treatment will he continue to receive until the virus is gone?

My guess is his doctors will monitor him in more or less the same way as in the hospital, the specifics on quarantining really depends on the layout of the White House, he needs a room to live in, a room to work in, and something that works for campaigning.

The Regeneron treatment would have severely stunted his infection, it could be 10% to a maximum of 50% of what it used to be from that alone, the effect lasts at least 7 days before dropping off, he should be mostly covered until he naturally develops antibodies in the second week and the virus dies out.

He's on a five day course of Remdesivir, so he'll keep taking that, they'll keep checking his liver for inflammation, and his infection will be even weaker from it.
 
It is worth remembering: History shows us three times the health of a president was hidden from press and peeps. The first was Woodrow Wilson, who was a vegetable and his wife ran the country. The second was Franklin D. Roosevelt, who was a cripple and later a dying cripple and the press kept that hidden. The third was John F. Kennedy, who had Addison's disease. (And it was due only to a criminal investigation that the country learned that Bill Clinton has a curly dick.) All were Democrats.
Reagan's condition was definitely obscured after his assassination attempt. I don't think misinformation was released, but the White House only released info that painted his condition in a positive or reassuring light.

Reagan's brain turned into oatmeal during his second term due to Alzheimer's
