    I’m sceptical

    Simple to convince us sceptics - live test on tv verified by a rep a dem and a neutral medic.

    Brave of you to be writing such given the surveillance you are under.

    If only the truth would out as you suggest.

    It's hard to know. I guess we will at least get a glimpse of him boarding Marine One.

    He may be very ill, he may not be. Regardless it's clear his campaign are going to really push for a sympathy vote. Journalists all gathered waiting to see him board Marine One. I'm listening to CNN's Wolf Blitzer at the moment saying that Trump is a "warrior" and a "fighter" - usually he is slating him at every opportunity. It's going to be wall to wall Trump for a week. Biden won't get a look in.

    Trump will have wanted Covid 19 to not be the big story for the fag end of the election campaign instead it's going to be the only story.

    So you believe this is all a scam. So is everyone who claims they have this around him also scamming us. What would it take for you to say yes he has it.

    But it confirms it's serious.

    He didn't reassure his supporters. It does not fit the tough guy image that he displays for them

    He walked out never spoke but this time he was wearing a mask.

    I was literally just saying this. Her death couldn't possibly have sparked a tinderbox with more efficacy.

    Her replacement is considered a given and her passing is already old news , no disrespect to her and her incredible achievements.

    If she had of wanted to advance her position, she would surely have chosen a different way to how it worked out.

    Why are the media so surprised he didn't stop for questions? Do they want a face to face with a COVID patient or what?

    Trump should be ashamed for calling him 'not smart' and denigrating his son.

    He should also be eternally ashamed for being so cavalier about a virus that has claimed over 200,000 of his citizens and has now caught up with him.

    Yes. I'd say he resisted going and insisted that he walked onto the chopper.

    Attention and sympathy vote. Dominate the news coverage. Drown out Biden.

    Let trump take a test live on tv and verify it with a rep a dem and a neutral medical professional - then will accept he has it


    Trump's a verified con artist and the people around him are scoundrels who aren't above any kind of scam but this line of thinking doesn't stand up to scrutiny. The Trump administration is a chaotic and poorly oiled machine that places rakes in front just so that it can step on them. Its competence at just about anything is non-existent. Its experts have been pushed out in favour of opportunistic sycophants. It leaks like a sieve (as has been pointed out by others). There is no way that there is enough intelligence or coordination or loyalty in this administration to pull such a scheme off successfully.

    He's not a god or a king or anything like that. If a man's a clown, you should be able to call him a clown. Fcuk your PC bullshít.

    They are not surprised. They are drawing attention to it because it's the opposite of what he normally does and goes against his image.

    You do know the test is just not instant it has to be tested. The person who verified is an independent doctor. He has been the doctor to other presidents

    Shows the 6 degrees of separation (6 handshakes away from everyone on the planet) in action. From the remote area outside Wuhan to the Potus.

    You are forgetting, if you take the ones from the blue states out, things aren't so bad! He's in a blue state which is kinda funny.. he'll not be counted if things get bad for him.
