I get what you’re saying but I think you’re wrong. Trump getting the virus is extremely embarrassing for him. Now it may well work in his favour but that doesn’t mean that it was in any way planned.

Half the thinking of this comes from “Shur he looks grand there on Twitter he’s not sick at all”... yeah, the virus affects everyone differently. He’s also got a team of medics watching him 24/7 and you can be damn sure he’s taken the right precautions before his diagnosis.

Trump tonight left the hospital in an SUV to greet well wishers, he then returned to the hospital. How much more moronic can he get!!

Tbf it wasn't just to greet well wishers. It was to show allies and more importantly adversaries that he was still alive and not that poorly.

This is hilarious. The liberal media are literally in meltdown cause he did something without telling the press. Stelter in particular :P

The idea that doing something is better than inaction is a pervasive myth in medicine, said Vinay Prasad, associate professor of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco. More than 90% of people recover from Covid-19 without doing anything

There are people who couldn't see their loved ones, who died alone in a hospital room with no other human contact. And Trump goes on a joyride for the craic while symptomatic with coronavirus.

Maybe this isn't just something "liberals" should be upset about.

Outlaw Pete

Oh please, if it was Obama leaving his hospital bed for the same reason there'd be gushing coverage from the boot licking media about how the President was heroically risking his own health to inspire a nation brought to its knees by a deadly pandemic.

Let's be honest, the leftists are just pissed off he wore a mask and so now they can't whine about how he doesn't believe in them for another week.

Anyone who thinks this guy is getting a sympathy vote from any undecided voters is deluded. Selfish *****

Do you think it matters? Do you think anyone believes anything anymore? The left has called wolf everyday for four years. Of course there were plenty of wolves but the impact of those has been lost by them all shouting over each other.

He may not win but calling people deluded as if you know how it's going to pan out; as if it's predictable, is plain stupid and an amusing throwback to 2016.

Trump catching covid is stopping him from campaigning in an election that he is losing. It is also embarrassing to him and his campaign due to the fact that he continuously down played the virus. This is a disaster for him. Biden has even more ammunition to use against him now.

It's funny, I think it very well could be the opposite.

If trump gets through the virus, and cracks on with things, he'll likely get both sympathy for being ridiculed and people hoping he might die... and also continued to be viewed by many as the alpha male persona he tries to portray!

That's why the dems took down the negative PR on him - they know the danger of fuelling an underdog come from behind narrative. But it may be too late, the vitriol and lack of class by many surrounding his diagnoses could have huge implications for how certain people vote in this election.

I don't think it'll change many minds, tbh. I'd say the election has been won, or lost, over the last three and a half years

The Irish government said it's ok to live with someone with the virus. There are actually very few countries that can legitimately mock Donald Trump being in a car with his security, and those are countries that actually quarantine infected people and keep them away from loved ones.

Relentless hypocrisy when it has anything to do with Trump.

How do you know the car doesn't have a divider between the president and the driver?

The Irish government has said that because what else are they supposed to do, send the infected to a quarantine facility? There is no choice when it comes to the household. There is choice in what Trump did and again he puts himself first.

Of course they could have done something. Quarantine hotels. Massively reduce clusters. It works in successful countries. I couldn't believe it when I realised it wasn't the norm in every country.

But my point is that making him out to be the devil incarnate when he's in a car with people who have sworn their lives to protect him is a bit much. He's the US president. A lot of people actually forget that part cause they only see a man they absolutely despise.

All week we've been told that had Trump just worn a mask he wouldn't have got the virus.

It was his own stupidity they said.

Now all of a sudden masks do diddly squat I guess.

Maybe. But it could lead to an even bigger victory margin.

You don't think some undecided voters, who might not be too bothered by the daily anti-trump bashings, might actually draw a moral line in the sand at people wishing death on the guy?

I think some people are basically unaffected by both the anti-trump propaganda and the occasional foibles or minor transgressions (as they see it) of their president. They don't take most of it seriously basically.

But kicking the guy while he's on the floor, whether you think he deserves it or not, might open a few people's eyes to the true nature of some people in society (imo).

You're creating a straw man here, it's not a real argument. Obama isn't President, nothing like this happened under his Presidency, it's entirely irrelevant.

Masks reduce the risk.

They don't elimnate it, particularly is used incorrectly. They are used to allow people continue to live, wirk, shop etc that may not have symptoms but might have the virus.

There is no one anywhere advocating the sick people ignore quarantine and just use the mask.

But one good thing to see is that Trump finally agrees the need for masks. I assume he will publicly admit he was wrong all this time and apologise for making fun of Biden, whi was right.

Now, who should we vote for in terms of POTUS during the continuing pandemic? The guy who only worked it months later or the guy that successful handled Ebola and called this one right?

That's not a strawman. It is a real argument.

I hope you tell people who say Obama would handle this better that they're creating strawmen and what they're saying is entirely irrelevant. I hope you say it for every hypothetical situation mentioned.

Another strawman. Nobody said wearing masks will always stop transmission. But wearing them and social distancing will reduce the chances. Trump has flouted these, while slagging off Biden who has taken more precautions and hasn't got it.
