Donald Trump has tested positive for COVID-19

[muh_moobs]

All he said was that he was sick and he got COVID, not that he was deathly ill. It's literally the MSM saying he has the bubonic plague rn.

For blue voters, the only outcome that will make them happy is if Trump experiences severe complications and then put into an induced coma that his body can't tolerate, leading to him leaving Walter Reed Memorial in a hearse. And then the democrats impeach him again to deprive him of a state funeral. And a meteor crashes into the vehicle Melania and Barron are traveling.

Anything less than that "just isn't fair".

Or we’ve had almost an entire year to study the virus and develop treatment plans to heavily reduce the chances of death in otherwise healthy individuals, which has been the general consensus for about two months now.

Or both.

Market was open and reacted on Friday, this conspiracy does not play out

The White House stated they waited to make the announcement until the markets closed. The reaction that was observed Friday would have been much worse during the initial speculation. The goal wasn't to prevent the markets from reaction, but to delay the reaction until the outlook was known.

Ah yes, and needing brain surgery had nothing to do with that whatsoever

If Biden finally gets sent to the glue factory by corona, and correct me if I'm wrong; but that means Harris takes his place.... and she gets to pick her VP, or does the DNC have a say? Do they hand it to Bernie, or go to a full tits ticket with Tulsi, Warren, or Buttigieg?

If Biden dies and Harris takes over before the election, I think the DNC and Harris will make a pick together and my money's on Warren or Buttigieg of the ones you mentioned.

Tulsi is the one who sank Kamala the first time and the DNC has been giving her hell since and Bernie is just bad optics in general, plus he's older than Biden and only slightly less unhealthy

The howling about Trump risking infecting everyone else in the car because he had the window rolled up is something. Do none of these people think? Maybe just as a change of pace once in a while?

I think I'll give that a try for a bit on their behalf.

1.	Those windows are ~4-6" bullet-resistant... stuff. They don't move. They wouldn't work as well, and the armor in the door is in the way.
2.	If they could, The secret service probably wants them up anyways. They strongly prefer presidents that don't get shot.
3.	They prefer presidents that don't get shot strongly enough that they have acted as meat-shields to prevent it. This is not a big danger comparatively, And the former is an expected part of the job.
4.	Some of those guys likely already got it, and got over it themselves. Stocking the car with them is pretty low-risk.

It is just dumb. You have a person who is sick with the illness that is causing a worldwide pandemic. You don't let him leave the hospital room, even if the car ride was safe for people on the outside of the car, he has to get there and back, he is leaving both his care and potentially exposing himself and his illness to the rest of the hospital . It is an idiotic risk to take for a damn photo op. We have procedures to keep everyone safe you should follow the procedures. Trump and all those Republicans are sick mainly because they didn't follow the simple rules to keep themselves and other people safe.

I googled dexamethasone and every description I read made it sound like a pretty standard a anti inflammatory with standard side effects like upset stomach and trouble sleeping.

Am I missing something? Why do these people freak out over everything?

Sounds like a shitpost that was never supposed to be there. That or it's photoshopped. I tried finding it on Twitter but it got deleted.

Unless there's proof of this, I don't give a fuck. Yet more fake news.

 

[repentance]

Not to mention that dose, length of time for which it's given, and purpose for which it's given are all relevant.

There are plenty of conditions for which dexamethasone is prescribed and how people react to it varies considerably. It's amusing that no-one is blaming Trump eating plate after plate of food on the steroids, which is a really common reaction. They're too busy trying to insist that because he's taking steroids he must be gravely ill and/or incompetent.

Or, stay with me here, the media has been claiming you’re literally at death’s door when your symptom’s are mostly mild and you’re making a good enough recovery to be able to leave the hospital and continue your treatment back at the White House, and going out for a brief drive by appearance is proof that you’re not literally dying in a hospital bed.
And is it totally implausible that the hospital has a safe route to get him in and out without coming into contact with other patients? It’s not like it’s a military hospital in Washington DC, and it’s not like he’s the president of the United States or something. This was as safe as it gets for pretty much all parties involved

The doctors that said "don't wear masks" and later said "wear masks"?

The doctors who said that Coronavirus was going to kill three times as many people as H1N1 did in 1918?

The doctors who said closing the border and restricting travel from asia was unnecessary and racist but then later said Trump failed America by not restricting travel sooner?

The doctors who said everyone could go back outside in 15 days but are now demanding that humanity as a whole just stay home until a vaccine is made?

If you can't name six people you know personally who have been ill with Coronavirus, then there was no reason for Trump not to hold rallies.

You're confusing "doctors" with randos in the media. The medical community also isn't a hivemind-- they disagree on things all the time, particularly when it pertains to a brand-new disease. The president's own medical advisor has been adamant about mask-wearing and social distancing, so if you're gonna take anyone's word, take his.

One of my coworkers died from this thing. A huge chunk of my extended family tested positive. Something not affecting you personally doesn't mean it's not a problem.

Put it this way, Drumpf has been subjected to 24/7 slander by the establishment media for the past four year.

Forget liberal countries, even in third world countries, his name is probably stained because local media simply copy-paste what they get from Reuters/AP and call it a day. And Reuters/AP only gets their marching orders news from the US mainstream media.

I knew I would regret posting in Happenings. It's amazing to me that you guys are more willing to believe a planet-wide media conspiracy than the idea that maybe this guy is an incompetent president. Is it slander if half the time all they're doing is just posting clips of the words that come out of the guy's own face?

Partisanship has completely annihilated peoples' ability to see things objectively, Christ. Stop agreeing/disagreeing with people just because of whichever retarded political party they belong to and start thinking for yourselves.

There’s also the fact that science rapidly changes, especially when damn near every medical scientist on earth is studying the same virus trying to find the vaccine first

 

[diroama]

I was about 10 feet from Trump. Beaming smile, big thumbs up from within the windows. Either he was on Coke or the Covid isn't doing much to him. Something about the way he looked in the low sun made him look like Donkey Kong.

In the video I've see he was wearing a face mask - did he remove it as he drove past you?

 

[Local Fed]

Why do these people freak out over everything?

Because it involves Orange Man. They'll freak out if he drinks water because it contains two hydrogen atoms in a molecule.

Fauci flip flopped several times over COVID, and doesn't have a good track record when you consider other things he's been trusted to manage.

And it was Fauci, the CDC, and the WHO saying making those statements I identified. Given how actively these same entities have shilled to protect the PRC from the ramifications of their actions, it's clear they were all in lock-and-step working to undermine the economy in order to engineer the ouster of Trump. Where they not, why is it that the longer this goes on, the CDC continues to have to admit that they over-reacted?

This week, the CDC has finally admitted that the survivability rates that got people banned from social media in previous months were correct and that they cooked the books on death numbers. Unless you're over 60 and in poor health you have a 99.95% chance of surviving IF YOU EVEN GET INFECTED, and only 6% of deaths attributed to COVID were due to COVID.

The doctors were wrong, but the problem is that they were intentionally wrong for political reasons rather than a lack of knowledge.

Edit: P.S. - Sars isn't new. This is just a new strain.

You should regret posting at all if, even after I replied to you yesterday, you still can't comprehend that there's a difference between talking about his competency versus people talking about how the media has often being acting as if the guy is the Antichrist, hellbent on becoming Voldemort while making The Handmaid's Tale a reality and [some other pop culture reference which personifies evil].

Yes, the media is definitely telling the truth, Trump is just incompetent. Never mind that they consistently downplayed or simply ignored all of the Obama administration's scandals, and never held anyone in his admin accountable for the many fuckups they made. All of the "anonymous sources familiar with the situation" stories are 100% true even when they were later proven to be false or even deliberate leaks.

Let me guess, you're one of the ones who think that when Trump said there were "good people on both sides" of the Charlottesville protests, he was talking about Nazis and white supremacists, right?

It's not April anymore. You don't have to hyperventilate about COVID as if it's the neo omega AIDS. It literally is just a slightly more belaboring version of the flu and we know it by now.

Even in April it was just a bad cough.
