Don’t get your hopes up. #MoscowMitch would simply replace them with two other Repuke Senators. There is nothing that would stop him from doing that.

Now, if both of them were completely incapacitated and couldn’t vote that could put Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski on the hot seat because then Mitch might not have enough votes to move ahead with the vote to confirm — if Collins and Murkowski keep their word. A very big IF.

My instinct is telling me that Trump's condition is not mild, but he's rapidly gone downhill with the "minor symptoms" and is probably scared shitless. Trump isn't the kind of man who would willingly agree to go to a hospital out of "an abundance of caution, just to be on the safe side." We all know he'd much rather be at home.

A doctor on CNN just said that Trump's infection timeline makes no sense judging by the symptoms he's showing. He's obviously known that he was sick for several days.

It's going to come out that he went to the debate knowing that he and the first lady were infected, which is why he intentionally showed up too late to be tested. He could have infected Biden and many others.

The thing about masks is that it's not just Trump supporters who ignore it. You do see tons of assholes of every race, religion, gender ignoring it. I really do hope NYC goes through with the threat of $1K fine for no mask.

How are Mike Pence and Mother?

by Anonymousreply 190October 3, 2020 5:57 AM

My dad was diabetic and obese. As a result, when he got an infection his organs failed and he died.

His doctor told me, heart, lungs and kidneys are all related. In the elderly, if one fails it’s too hard on the others and they can all fail at once.

Your heart has to have oxygen to work. So if it’s not getting enough, it’s working harder and harder, pumping to try to get more. That raises your blood pressure. If an elderly person who already has congestive heart failure (like Trump) gets COVID and then his lung capacity is damaged, his heart is working harder to try and compensate. He could have heart failure, which could also lead to kidney failure. COVID is not the same with elderly people with pre-existing conditions. It’s worse. It’s like the last nail in the coffin.

Just look at Trump. Probably high cholesterol, high blood pressure. Obese. Congestive heart failure. All of these contribute to what the COVID is doing and make it worse. How that guy can not be diabetic I don’t know. If he is, diabetics take longer to heal. Then he supposedly has had mini strokes. He must be on blood thinners, which help. But he must be at higher risk of stroke. And COVID is a vascular disease.

After watching what happened to my dad (which took two days), I’m wondering if Trump gets a bad case, could his organs just fail? My guess is he’s already being held together with duct tape and bailing wire. If you can’t get enough oxygen, every organ is slowly dying. He has no reserve. He’s been burning the candle at both ends forever.

Here’s what I’m thinking could happen. Let’s say Trump survives COVID but comes out with heart or lung damage. He’s fatigued. He’s lost lung capacity. How do you start four years more as POTUS when you’re hanging on by a thread, and the only chance you have to live is don’t strain your heart? A lot of times narcissists think the only two options are alive or dead. But there’s a third option, that he recovers as a visibly frail, weak invalid and doesn’t bounce back. Maybe he needs a pacemaker or kidney dialysis. What then? Will people vote for a frail invalid in a wheelchair, that looks like death warmed over? Will the RNC allow it when Pence is right there? Knowing he will likely have to resign or die in office after a short time?

Here is a perfect moment to have Pence pardon him and say he’s too frail to return. If he gets a bad case, people forget who old he is. A lot of times, seniors are going along okay, then they fall down or get in a car accident and they decline rapidly after that. They don’t bounce back. Then it turns out they had one foot in the grave all along and this is the other one.

Trump might not have corona at all. He might use it as a strategy to claim a speedy and complete recovery to show how "strong" he is / to show that corona is "just like the flu".

People are quick to mistrust whatever comes out of his mouth, or the White House. Why trust him now on this info coming out of his mouth?

Or, fearing a Biden win and subsequent prosecution, he might use corona to fake his death and flee.

And probably the best proof we have is all the other people who were at the ACB event on Saturday who have now come down with virus.

Conservatism is so warped that unless he dies and/or one of them is personally affected by it, all recovery will “prove” is that it’s not so bad to catch (in other words, another example of us (with the good genes &/or God) vs them (those *other* people who wore masks before getting it and still died). These people don’t internalize risk until it personally effects them in some serious way. Conservatism has some evolutionary value but I think it’s largely a dead end in terms of where we are now.

Unfortunately for those who hope for death as the outcome while older or at risk groups are still in danger of dying the doctors got better at treatment of this disease. Nobody is dying or getting the condition serious enough to incapacitated for long period.

Him surviving, but with visible weakness and long-term damage is the best possible outcome from a sane political point of view. His death before election day would win Pence sympathy votes, and keep Democratic voters home.

On the other hand, his emerging nearly unscathed would support his bullshit about how COVID isn't serious.

No, he needs to spend two weeks in the hospital, maybe being ventilated in one form or another, and come out in a wheelchair at the end of October.

You are probably correct r290. Hospitals are a totally different animal, once you walk in those doors you fallow THEIR rules. They dont take shit from people even powerful or rich ones. And according to my relatives nurses and doctors, the rich ones are the worst. They are used to demanding service "or else". Well "or else" means you can walk out the door for all they care. They are not begging for your sick ass, they are always overloaded with sick asses as it is, you are there for their help, so shut up and sit down and do what the doctor and nurses tell you.

To be honest, I think Trump will fall into line, he's really a pussy with other authority figures. But Don Jr. I could see bursting in there without a mask. They will put a stop to that. Trust me. The guards or police can have him removed. Wish I was a fly on the wall.

All Presidents go to that same hospital because it's close. Rich people might get a private room or something like that, but they are not getting better service in terms of medical care. President is a little different because it's such an important job. So all doors open for him but still there are limits.

I work in Beverly Hills, by boss is very wealthy older drama queen. I have taken her to various hospitals several times. Trust me when I tell you she's just another patient in line behind a homeless person. At one point during a flu outbreak she was having issues and it tool 12 hours in the waiting room to see a doctor. And she is no shy about demanding shit. There are just too many wealthy people to elevate them like that, they would be overwhelmed in an area like Beverly Hills or any affluent city.

I agree that some of the never-Trumpers would vote for Pence if Trump dies, but that others are also against Barr, Pompeo, etc. and want a clean sweep of the party. I'm really unsure how Pence would work out as presidential candidate. His political career was floundering in IN in 2016, but that was a different time and place, and he had a different position. I would never underestimate him as a smooth liar and manipulator (especially with the steel hand of Mother guiding things). On the other hand, he lacks charisma (for at least part of Trump's base)—could that be overcome by a halo of sanctity and martyrdom after Trump's demise or incapacity?

Many of the other Never Trumpers, as pointed out upthread, just don't like the quiet part being spoken out loud. The Country Club set find him too crass and fear he will give away the game.

[quote] Law enforcement agencies across the country have struggled with protecting their officers, who by the nature of their work, come in direct contact with people. That task has been even more challenging for the Secret Service, an agency long understaffed with agents and officers who have been forced to continue traveling during the presidential campaign.

Most of the Never Trumpers that I know are still Republican, but are just so disgusted by Donald Trump that they had no other choice but stop supporting the party as it is now. I have every reason to believe that Never Trumpers will return to their party once and/or if the party gets its act together again. Hell, they may have even returned if Trump had become a "normal' president.

As for Republicans like Mitch McConnell, there is no doubt in my mind that McConnell and the Senatrix can't stand Donald Trump either and think he's an idiot. McConnell clearly realizes that as long as Donald Trump is in office he (Turtle) can stack the courts with his people and get a lot of his crazy agenda through.

The Senatrix sees Trump's approval ratings among Republicans and made the decision to go all in because he didn't want to be primaried. I know the conspiracy theories want to paint a picture of Linds being blackmailed by either Trump or Russia, but it's clearly a numbers game. Ted Cruz, Little Marco and others -- the same thing.

Mitch McConnell... everything... everything feels out of control, basic decency is dead, normal doesn't exist, lying is OK, running your freak in public is fine... everything feels out of control to me.

ABC News' John Santucci:

President Trump rested well through the night as doctors continue to monitor and evaluate him through the weekend to determine when he can return to the WH, sources familiar with the matter tell ABC. As of this am, POTUS still feeling fatigued but is doing work.

While Trump had experienced a shortness of breath after testing positive for the virus, sources tell ABC this morning he is not having difficulty breathing and described his breathing as normal.

The President is still not considering any transition of power to Vice President Mike Pence. However the president is worried, as coming down with the virus has spooked him and top aides.

The two problems are, 1) the Abbott quick test has a problem with false negatives, not positives and 2) while PCR is needed for confirmation, a positive quick test is ALWAYS treated as a positive.

The cranky old codgers at the WSJ Editorial Board are literally urging Trump to hold FDR-like Fireside Chats from his hospital bed room and to display Reagan's sense of humor because "his strategy of attacking Mr. Biden and son Hunter personally isn’t working."

[quote] Mr. Trump will no doubt be frustrated that his campaign is confined to his personal residence or his office at Walter Reed hospital, but that may be an opportunity. Americans will be empathetic, and Mr. Trump can respond in kind. Ronald Reagan’s popularity soared after he was shot because he showed grace and cool under strain—“honey, I forgot to duck.” Rather than lash out at his critics, Mr. Trump can show optimism and fortitude and maybe even good humor in coping.

[quote] He could also use the time, and his virtual media appearances, to make a positive case for a second term. His strategy of attacking Mr. Biden and son Hunter personally isn’t working, so why not use fireside chats to frame the policy differences? He was headed for probable defeat before his new diagnosis, so he has little to lose by trying.

BBC are running with the confused messaging as a lead item:

White House has some explaining to do

Anthony Zurcher BBC North America reporter One would imagine the purpose of the White House medical team’s Saturday morning press conference was to reassure the public that the president is doing well and that the nation’s top medical experts are on top of the situation.

Instead, they created more confusion.

Sean Conley, the president’s physician, said Trump was diagnosed “72 hours ago” – which would be Wednesday morning. That’s before the president travelled to Minnesota for a campaign rally that night, before he flew to New Jersey for a fund-raiser on Thursday and more than 36 hours before the president revealed his coronavirus diagnosis to the world in a late-night tweet.

The timeline is further muddied by the revelation that the president was given an antiviral treatment sometime on Thursday – also before his announcement.

Conley tried to paint a positive picture of the president’s current medical condition, although he was evasive about whether Trump had ever been given oxygen to assist his breathing.

And then, just minutes after the press conference concluded, an official struck a very different tone, telling the gathered press “the president’s vitals over the last 24 hours were very concerning and the next 48 hours will be critical in terms of his care”.

The White House and the president’s medical team have some explaining to do. They have since said the physicians misspoke, but that is unlikely to put concerns to rest that the president may have knowingly put more people at risk by travelling when he knew he might have Covid-19.

In situations like this, trust is an invaluable commodity – and with every misstep or misdirection, it can be squandered.

Mark Meadows said it. He asked to be off the record. But he knew the quote would go out. He's just trying to keep everybody concerned and sympathetic. Not scrutinizing all the crap Trump has been doing. He will make Trump and COVID the story as long as he can.

I actually think the doctor was mostly telling the truth. (He was cult like though.) Trump is probably up and watching college football. They probably took his phone away from him. I think the antibody treatment really helped him.

Melania is using her Coronacation time to plan the highly anticipated White House Hall of Christmas Trees.

This year's theme " I Should Listened " will feature wilted and dying Christmas Trees decorated with assorted colorful face masks, surgical gloves, and Pocket-Bac hand sanitizers from Bath & Body Works. Melania will christen the hallway the John and Jacqueline Kennedy Tree of Life Memorial Walkway.

Melania's sole purpose will be a most sincere effort to make reparations to the surviving members of the Kennedy and Bouvier Families.
