DONALD TRUMP HAS COVID19!!

"I have no fear, for fear is the little death that kills me over and over.  Without fear, I die but once." — same dude

"We have nothing to fear but ... fear itself."  — and if you have to ask who said this, please surrender your citizenship papers as you leave.

“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”

Looking forward to the new adaptation?

He had pretty good doctors who brought him past the cancer. But they couldn't help him defeat COVID. You seem to be using this sequence of events as some sort of argument that COVID ain't that bad, Jarl: your logic escapes me.

It is actually quite simple: for a 74 year old with cancer, damn near anything (including a bad cold) can be fatal.

Trump:"Doc, doc, tell me - after the virus has disappeared from my system, will I be able to run the country competently, efficiently, effectively and without drama?"

(You can tell that this is going to be a joke because there are at least three words in that sentence that he has never used let alone understood.)

Doctor Conley: "What's your date of birth? OK, yes, Mr. . . . " (consults clipboard and wristband) ". . . Trump, you'll be fine."

Trump: "Oh good, I've always wanted to run the country competently, efficiently, effectively and without drama."

You know, let's just say that Trump did have the coronavirus.  And let's just further say that he managed to get himself released from the hospital prematurely, and that he still has it.  Let's even go one step further than that and say that he actually develops a full-blown case of COVID, which — at his present age and condition — could easily turn out to be fatal.

So here's the leader of the Free World, the smartest man in the world, a true stable genius, et cetera, et cetera, lying on his back on a marble slab about to become worm food.

I just wonder what sort of noble, meaningless bullshit the Repugnicunts will churn out to explain his untimely demise — without ever once mentioning the words 'COVID', 'coronavirus', or 'pandemic'.  A 'black ops' hit arranged by the liberals?  The Antifa?  A chance encounter with a vampire?  Or maybe just "God's Will" (which will play well to his fundy/evangelical base).

The White House doctor says Donald Trump is no longer at risk of transmitting the coronavirus, but has not said whether the US president has tested negative for it.

In a memo released by the White House, Dr Sean Conley said Trump met the Center for Disease Control and Prevention criteria for safely discontinuing isolation and that by “currently recognised standards” he was no longer considered a transmission risk.

The memo did not say whether Trump had tested negative, but stated that a test on Saturday had showed the president was no longer a “transmission risk to others”, and there was no longer evidence “of actively replicating virus”.


Sensitive lab tests — like the PCR test — detect virus in swab samples taken from the nose and throat. Dr William Morice, who oversees laboratories at the Mayo Clinic, said earlier this week that using the PCR tests, the president’s medical team could hypothetically measure and track the amount of virus in samples over time and watch the viral load go down.

The news came as cases continued to spike in midwestern US states and the health ministry in India, the second-worst hit country after the US, issued figures showing its total infections had climbed over 7 million.

Some medical experts had been skeptical that Trump could be declared free of the risk of transmitting the virus so early in the course of his illness. Just 10 days since an initial diagnosis of infection, there was no way to know for certain that someone was no longer contagious, they said.

Melania issued a statement after it was announced that Barron also tested positive. Among other things she said:

I encourage everyone to continue to live the healthiest life they can. A balanced diet, fresh air, and vitamins really are vital to keep our bodies healthy. For your complete well-being, compassion and humility are just as important in keeping our minds strong.

Americans famously don't get irony. Maybe they will start.
