Reed Rothchild | 9,637 Editorials Team · Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 He'll have a whole team on him 24/7. And I'm sure we've gotten a lot better at treatment since Boris Johnson nearly died. I'm sure this is also the liberals' fault somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is going to be getting the best treatment money can pay for and will come out of this fine. I say he gets mild to moderate symptoms at worst. I would have pretty high confidence that he at least survives the primary illness. But I wouldn't be surprised if the long-term effects give an obese senior citizen like him a stroke in the next couple of years. That is, I would be that it substantially increases the risk that he doesn't survive a 2nd term, or does so at a greatly diminished physical capacity (which for a guy at his weight and age is a downward spiral).

Strange | 1,705 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Sad that the president says he’s contracted COVID and he’s so untrustworthy that many are questioning it. Part of me immediately thought he’s lying in some stunt to say “It’s not so bad, open everything back up!” or to push his controversial drug cure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strange | 1,705 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 On another note: “Dear God, please protect President Trump from the Coronavirus, although I’m not sure if it’s real, and even if it is real, I’m not sure why I’m asking You for help because it’s not that bad.” - has got to be one of the weirder prayers God has received throughout His career and you know He’s hearing it all day today. If you think I’m being over the top then you haven’t spent as much time in evangelical churches as I did growing up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulpa | 3,569 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 He may have access to the best medical care, but treatment options at this time are still pretty limited, mostly easing the symptoms. Let's not forget this virus is surprisingly capricious in who it affects and to what extent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is about recognizing the threat of the situation where Trump is enabling and encouraging white supremacist groups. There is real danger here.

Just like white supremacists have the KKK, Proud Boys, etc. To be clear, the Proud Boys aren't a white supremacist group, even though they were framed as such to help "prove" that Trump supports white supremacists. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The press secretary went on an impressive quote train of him condemnation of such groups yesterday at the press conference as well. It just doesn't get coverage. Worse tho, is that people can pick and choose what statements he actually meant and further hold him accountable for what other infer from his statements. But there is no road to redemption. Not to say that I think Donnie wants to change his ways, but I do think that there needs to be an emphasis on redemption by the media. All road to redemption seems to be lost by anyone, right left of center, in today's political climate. It's a real shame to paint public figures as these static images.

Donald Trump's portrayal of himself is the complete antithesis of someone willing or able to ask for "redemption" of any kind, because the man will not accept blame for ANYTHING. He would have to be willing to admit that he was wrong at some point, which just isn't going to happen. I'm not holding out any hope that him catching Covid-19 will change his tune, either.

Like I said, I don't think he is the candidate since he literally plays up his irredeemable qualities but it is something that we need to allow public figures access to. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't speak highly of him. After listening to the press secretary spout off an impressive amount of condemnations, and I think even go on to say he has condemned white supremacy more than any president in history, for only the sheer quantity of instances, that I kind of understand why he got confused at the questions. In his mind he sees himself as this perfect person who is always saying the right thing. He's condemned white supremacy more than any other president. What else can he say? He goes on to ask exactly what they want him to say so he can say it. Fumbles over his words and gets a turn over at the one yard line. But if we're going by how many times a person condemns an organization as an indication of their stance on the issue, then a person has to believe his stance is at stark contrast of white supremacists.
