    Hope the anti-Trump people here don't catch the virus after letting their masks slip.

    I don't think they did shake hands but they both are on the same stage without masks indoors. Hopefully Joe is okay.

    If he pulls through this without any issue at all it will only serve to verify his downplaying of the virus and probably encourage anti maskers even further.

    In air was he's hardly the picture of health, if he shows up in a week or two without a bother ill be asking was it fake.

    Why? Even people in the highest risk groups are more likely to have mild illness and survive than not, at an individual level. So it wouldn't be that surprising

    Best post of the thread.

    Wish he an the wife recovers soon and then is hammered in November and we don't hear from him again.

    The man is a neanderthal, but doesn't sit well with me cheering him getting this knowing I have older relatives around same age would be vulnerable if they got it.

    What are you talking about?

    You're blaming him for 200k deaths, european leaders never killed anyone despite the fact that 40k of spain's population is dead with it, similar levels, if not higher than the US

    I can't help but feel like this is sabotage. He never looked at the moderator and camera, always spoke over at Joe and then three days later he announces he's positive. Hmm.

    I wish Joe a mild dose and a speedy recovery and the moderator as well. I'm only glad that nothing Trump has will ever be inside me :D

    It'll be very interesting, I hope he'll be OK. He hasn't started any wars yet he's OK with me.

    interesting. i don't buy that he is trying to avoid debates but there could be an advantage from fighting off the virus.

    Yeah but I doubt your relatives were actively responsible for letting other people get it..

    I wonder if this is an elaborate setup.
    If not, is Biden a close contact?
    Is he in quarantine?

    Pelosi met with Hope a few days ago, not her biggest fan but this is concerning she needs to get tested asap.

    Biden mantained social distancing thankfully and assume he is getting tested every day but would advise him to isolate for a while.

    Its pretty worrying as trump, hope and whoever else she passed the virus to has clearly interacted with a lot of very important people not just in the Trump inner circle.

    His clear inaction on masks, social distancing, a dem hoax, telling people it was a flu and will be gone next week. Floating ideas like injecting bleach or using light to cure it and basically telling everybody it was a hoax just to bring him down. Also being recognised as the leading source of disinformation globally would Kind of mean that he is responsible or am I off the mark here? I don't see any European leaders taking this line or I have been watching the wrong channels

    He's probably getting tested regularly no matter what, but yeah definitely could do worse than isolating. I was going to make a very original joke :rolleyes: about him been in the basement but probably not the worst place to be for him atm.

    He's probably the most disliked POTUS ever and has stoked a huge level of hate.

    It's no real surprise. He has had a massively negative impact on many people's lives.

    This isn't just some celebrity people don't like.

    Bad news, no doubt he'll recover and weaponise the fact he got it somehow. He's going to end up downplaying how ill it made him and thus the seriousness of the virus, that is guaranteed.

    I know it’s horrible to wish Covid on someone etc etc , but I’ve just heard the news and can’t help feeling that it’s ...... ( I cannot think of the word ? ) befitting that he has it

    "Massively negative impact on many peoples lives"

    the lives of Irish people on boards.ie?

    Some of the comments are a disgrace. Some posters need to take a look at themselves and the bile they are typing. It's not even 8am

    Maybe Irish people on boards have had relatives in the US die of covid because of his policies and their anger is justified?

    I don't wish him ill or dead, he doesn't affect my life enough to care either way, but he's a dangerous man. World would be better without him, he will go down as the very worst clown of a man to be president of USA.

    He might not even have it, could just be a strategy but who knows. The level of upset here from people to those that do wish him bad is laughable though, don't be so sensitive.
