    Biden says it's an "American moment".

    Whatever that means.

    It means that tonight we are all praying for the POTUS.

    Tonight we are all Republicans.

    Even sleeping Joe is a Republican tonight while he is saying his prayers

    Reminds me of Tom Crean's march across the Antarctic.

    Speak only for yourself.

    Watching Trump get on the helicopter, he was about the size of my thumb!

    Everything is fine. He's being treated with ultraviolet light and doused in bleach as we speak. #oompaloompa4eva

    Not so fast.

    Say he recovers from Covid (irrespective of how bad he actually gets).
    His team put out that his Dr's expected the worst but he pulled through to their amazement.
    They say he will take 3 weeks to recuperate and rest.
    He appears on the campaign trail a week later saying he couldn't abandon his country during such a time of great need.
    He says his experience has thought him exactly what needs to happen with Covid and he will formulate a new strategy which will protect the economy, help businesses and save lives. All he needs from you is his vote to return him to put his plan in to action.

    No more debates. No more hard questions. An easy excuse if he needs to disappear from a story for a day or 2.

    Say what you want about America, but it fcuking loves a real life hero, even if this guy is no real life hero.

    If I was Biden, I'd pull all negative ads but push Bidens message vigorously and have him appear and talk about how he hopes Trump recovers but that it is clear that his plan did not work, and cannot work. Get out ahead of the next Trump message.

    You give hope.

    Friday night ...
    Looking strong enough, walking upright & unaided from the Whitehouse to the helicopter, and then from the helicopter to his limo ....

    Curious why he's gone to hospital then :cool:

    3 white house journalists have tested positive now too. Must be rampant in there.

    I'm not surprised - at the beginning of this pandemic it was all Hazmat Suits etc - Trump is walking around touching the rail on the helicopter steps - people following him - sharing a closed space with him - either he has it and now half his aides have too or it's all madey uppy

    Most people are sceptical, and those with a bit of a brain will see this spectacle for what it is. Sympathy vote and recovery and we are Bigly there is no virus.

    Honestly.

    Don't wish anything bad but the whole thing stinks, timing dear boy.

    Leave it out - the man is ill.

    No we aren’t
    Brave to walk out don’t make me laugh.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,236 ✭✭✭mcmoustache


    But...hear me out...

    Is it conceivable that there was a 'plan B' in place if it looked liked Trump might lose the election? His ego simply would not tolerate that.

    He fakes an illness, Pence takes over and loses to Biden. Trump runs again for a second term in 2024.

    I just don't trust the man (and I may have watched too much House of Cards over the last few weeks...)

    Is it such an outlandish suggestion, given how many lies he consistently tells?


    The idea that he would think about it and discuss it isn't crazy. It's getting away with it that's the problem. I think it was Quin_Dub in another thread that there are too many moving parts for it to work and Overheal also pointed out that the WH leaks like a sieve.



    Since you mention a plan B, though, I'm sure that Trump understands the personal legal jeopardy that comes with not being POTUS anymore and that there should be a plan B. If he decides to go to Russia or Saudi Arabia for treatment with its new vaccine*, then I'll start to question his infection but for now, this all seems legit.

    I nearly vomited on to my laptop after reading that putrid nonsense.

    America won’t have to listen to trumps endless scutter for a couple of days. Maybe that’s what he means.

    Very cynical
    If Biden does win, there will always be an asterisk beside his name in the history books

    Biden should be ashamed of himself - calling a POTUS a clown

    Telling a POTUS to “shut up, man”

    He was being generous when he said that Trump is a clown.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,236 ✭✭✭mcmoustache


    If he's not winning this time around, he's never winning again. The people have woken up. They'll not slip again in the near future.


    Yes they will. Americans are very vulnerable to disinformation and conspiracy theories. Social media isn't going away. They might get a few years of sanity but such a poorly educated and misinformed (by european standards) population is open to falling for the same con again.

    should you not be resting ?

    He is the most powerful person in the world and his death in office would be a major event and economic disruption.

    It's not about him the man but about the President and that demands hyper vigilance. He may well have next to no reason to go but that tiny risk is enough.

    Start at that and go all the way up to he will be dead in the morning.
