| | Re: Trump and first lady test positive for coronavirus | Quote: | |  | | | I think he's creating his own Fake News.
He will steal all the headlines with his Covid diagnosis and avoid any more debates. He will emerge in a few weeks time, having beaten it, possibly not being slowed down at all. Steal the limelight, derail the process.. | | | | | I believe so too. It’s a very convenient distraction from his criminal tax fraud, his calls for moving the election and the whole voter fraud saga. He will exploit it for his “democratic hoax” story. And it will work.
And since he doesn’t seem to have any symptoms or at worst mild ones at this present time, despite being an overweight over-70 with a horrible diet who never exercises, there’s nothing for him to “pull through” or that would require any “best experts for his recovery”.

| | Re: Trump and first lady test positive for coronavirus | Quote: | |  | | | He required oxygen, that all. | | | | | Totally normal, every winter when I get the flu I end up in the ICU "just to be cautious" and being delivered oxygen with a mask. Don't know why people make a fuzz about it.

Whatever the outcome, I would not like to be in Hick´s shoes.
Perhaps we will hear that he got suicided one fine day.

...and the mandatory the stock market likes/dislikes: European markets lower as Trump tests positive for coronavirus https://www.cnbc.com/2020/10/02/euro...ronavirus.html
I know this kind of commentary is just as informative as the horoscope, but fun anyway.

| | Re: Trump and first lady test positive for coronavirus | Quote: | |  | | | He required oxygen, that all. | | | | | We all require Oxygen, not only country leaders. If he was not hospitalised he could have died. A clear sign that the lungs are not working.
Just think of the people that do not have access to medical care.
