Well: Trump has a personal medical stuff that's monitoring him 24/7 and he takes a COVID-19 test every day. So his staff will have been able to start treating him the moment he got sick. For normal people, there is more time lost: first getting to the point where you feel you need a test, then waiting for test results (wait times vary wildly across regions), and then getting the required care. Yes, everything Trump got except for the experimental stuff is 'normal'; but US health care means not everyone can afford what they need. Plus, if people care less, more will get sick, more will go to hospitals, and hospital beds will become scarce. When that happens, all these things that Trump got pretty much the instant anything looked off in his health status won't be available to people even if their situation becomes critical. Also, Trump's medical staff is likely among the best in the US; that won't be everyone's experience either.
in short, Trump is really not an example of anything that might happen to normal people.
I'm surprised so many people accept his word and believe that he's better. That's exactly what he wants.
Good news is: if he was really faking it, he could still get it.
Anyone got their commemorative coin yet? Still waiting.
This is my thought.
Thanks for not letting me feel a little safer even for 15 min. I get your point, it just seems that we are better equipped to fight it compared to before and will prevent more deaths now. This does not mean I or my family will definitely survive if we get it, it just means we are more likely than before. Nothing beats a vaccine obviously.
I'm almost certain of it.
He is saying that he is getting discharged. If he doesn't leave the hospital it will definitely look worse. Why would he take the risk?
Literally the modern day Typhoid Mary.
He’ll be rushed back to WR within the next five days. That spectacle will look far worse.
If that happens that would actually lose him some votes, so I don't see any upside of Trump saying he is better when he is not.
Once again Trump as the MSM in the palm of his hands.
Oh he's 100% leaving the hospital. He's got a massive ego and obsessed with looking tough (or what he thinks tough is). He'll still be receiving treatment at the White House
If it helps you any, over a month ago I was talking to a friend who works in the upper management side of a private hospital chain (so not at all a doctor), and his overall message was that outcomes for covid patients were much better by then than in the initial surge. And the key point he said was the doctors had gotten much better exactly at timing the administration of steroids to patients. Not that there weren't still deaths from it, but it sounded like you were having fewer deaths of patients that you'd generally expect to make it through.
Isn't that dexa stuff pretty serious? Surprised he can be discharged on that.
One of the side effects is grandiose delusions. Not that we'd know the difference with Trump.
The entire world right now:
I doubt his doctors have had much say in the matter
A very closed loop of advisors is surrounding him right now. He’s not going to be getting good advice & he thinks that leaving the hospital is the right PR move.
Trump is the one deciding things, not the docs.
If he was fine they wouldn't be keeping quiet about that.
Arguably the most egregious thing about this. Biden should absolutely hammer him on the hypocrisy.
Hopefully they have been making attack ads every day since they initially pulled them. The material over the past few days has been too good not to capitalize on.
Wonder where Fauci is right now.
He's actually going to be interviewed on CNN tonight. With that said, he's primarily an NIH administrator so he wouldn't have any involvement in direct medical care of the president for what it's worth.
this storyline is like a "so bad, its good" film
When would your test actually be negative after treatment.
Secondly if Trump had a negative test, it would already be on twitter or under a golden shower.
They mean before the infection.
Disappointing that this comes from Dowd, but she’s spot on.
Makes sense. Forgot his exact position.
That's harsh of Hope Hicks.
Yeah, and fire away "how do you like that hot liberal bling bling on your face, Kayleigh?"
