Trump hospitalized with Covid symptoms

Unless this fucker dies, I wont believe he actually have Covid.

This asshole is capable of setting up this charade to boost his poles.

Intubation requires anesthesia mostly because conscious people react negatively to tubes being shoved down their throats. It’s almost impossible to intubate a lucid patient.

No. He really isn’t.

He couldn’t keep his taxes or his trysts with porn stars or a thousand other embarrassing revelations secret, and the only other people who were privy to that information were a handful of people he personally entrusted with it.

Nothing in Trump’s history or demeanor suggests he is competent enough to orchestrate a conspiracy that would involve not just dozens of people within his own family and administration, but also dozens of non-partisan professionals from Walter Reed Medical Center and other places. His administration sucks at keeping secrets even when those secrets are known to only a handful of people. Trump & team couldn’t pull off a conspiracy of this scale to save their lives.

Ever see a pic of him golfing?
No way is he less than 300 pounds; and I doubt he is much over 6’ tall.

Honestly, if I were a hospital administrator, I’d tell him that his room is the Presidential Suite also.
Balance the hospital budget in one fell swoop.

All nine(?) of them. And a dog.

Yet they still parked the chopper so that it blocked the view of the door he came out of to get onto it, and I haven’t seen any photos of him doing so. Not that I’m saying they’re lying about taking him to the hospital, but they definitely didn’t want anyone to see him on his way there. If he’s just dandy, they’d have let him showboat like he always does.

Nice! Nice combo of a pun with an ol’ timey reference!

The best theory I’ve heard (and by best, I mean the most amusing) is that it’s all an elaborate scheme to fake his death so he can escape both his debts and the Russian hit squad that’ll be coming after him.

With the virus showing up in fecal matter, there must be a ton of worried Trump ass kissers.

Well, looking at the Herman Cain precedent, they’d probably just keep Trump’s mummified corpse as the candidate.

I think I was first to quote Carole Cadwalladr’s tweet here so I feel guilty. I’ll add this difference: in the early days of the pandemic most government’s saw a big bounce in popularity due to national solidarity and a feeling of all being in it together. Trump and his white supremacist party have squandered that national unity probably more spectacularly than any other government. They really did double down on division without even paying lip service to unity. For example the English Tories performative unity by clapping at the NHS they underfund and seek to privatise. It made you get sick a bit in your mouth to see Tory scum out on the streets clapping for the cameras, I mean the NHS. But some Rubes ate up that shit.

Some people tried that shit here. Rich tossers without a shred of introspection.

They could have landed the chopper in front of St. John’s Episcopal Church, and made a real photo op out of it.

Will he do his National Service then?

Pffff, as if. We all know “wfh” means sit on the couch and watch Netflix all day.

I am absolutely certain that was not the case. It is how it was portrayed by the media, but they don’t exactly have a reputation for truthfullness…

Given Boris’ extreme laziness, history of lying comparable to Trump’s plus the fact he apparently went from ‘near death’ to fine with no longterm symptoms in a staggeringly short time leads me to believe one of two things happened:

  1. He faked the entire thing as an excuse to evade his responsibilities/the public. (this fits exactly with his character and history)
  2. he had a mild case and milked it for all it was worth.

I don’t for a second believe he had a severe case…

Now with trump, and people mentioning he hates to look weak, i agree #1 is less likely here.

But at the end of the day only one thing is absolutely certain with Boris/Trump and their parties: Whatever is happening they WILL be lying about it in some way.
