    While I'm not one to wish anything bad on anyone, I don't have any pity for him IF he actually has/had it. IF he actually got covid, he brought it on himself. He treated it like a joke, put himself and, more importantly, others at risk with his irresponsible and reckless behavior. If his bullshit finally caught up with him and bit him in the ass, it's no one's fault but his own.

    To be honest, I'm just not buying it without some actual proof. I'd have to see proof from a reliable source, and there's for damn sure nothing trustworthy about Trump, his White House minions, his so-called doctor, or Fox news/other questionable media sources. They all lie so much, the truth is beyond them. It's not hard to believe Trump would lie about having covid, because it definitely sounds like something he would do. He lies about every damn thing else.

    There are a lot of motives he could have for lying about it. It could be to make light of the dangers of covid in effort to take the heat off himself for refusing to handle his responsibilities, and for the blatant disregard for the lives of so many people who suffered so much avoidable loss and death. He could also be doing it for sympathy—even though he has no sympathy/empathy for anyone else, his narcissistic ass would no doubt expect everyone to feel sorry for him. Besides, if he's "suffering", folks should be willing to cut his incompetent ass some slack and not be so "mean" to him. It could also be a way to avoid any more "debates"—even though the debate was a pathetic excuse for one, the general consensus is that he lost, and everyone knows what a blow to his ego that had to be. lol Everything that fool does (no matter how ridiculous) is calculated and self-serving, and lying about having covid, regardless of the reason, is something I wouldn't put past his pathological-lying ass. It makes no sense to trust anything that comes out of his mouth or the mouths of anyone who speaks on his behalf. He's proven time and time again that he can't be trusted.

    This is exactly why I don't feel even remotely sorry for him. If he gets sick, he'll get the absolute best medical treatment that our tax dollars can buy, so for him to play it off as no big deal is exactly what pisses me off the most about him. And unlike the rest of us, he doesn't have to worry about being bankrupt from medical expenses because treatment is too expensive. Why some people either cannot or will not understand that the president of the United States gets special treatment is honestly lost on me.

    But his complete lack of empathy on this is damn near cartoonish. This might be the most "let them eat cake" type bullshit to come out of this administration so far.

    Agreed, and it's infuriating. I suppose it's our own fault for being a bunch of "virtual nobodies" who aren't as deserving as he is. smh

    Trump holding the stimulus hostage until (unless) he wins re-election is a real dick move and stupid on his part, especially since a lot of jobs of people who support him may be in jeopardy.

    Agreed! And of course the moron spewed the usual garbage about how the economy is so great and so on. If the economy was truly great (for everyone)... There would be no need for mention of a stimulus.

    Some people with Trump hypnotic syndrome don’t know that Regeneron is an experimental drug which has not even got emergency approval and is definitely not available to the common man.
    Oh yeah and tell me again, does he support health insurance for all?

    At this point, he's just writing Biden's campaign ads for him.

    Before reading the last several pages of this thread, I thought my hatred for the Clintons knew no bounds. I was so wrong. Even I wouldn't be saying the things you all are saying if Hillary was POTUS and contracted COVID.

    Regardless of WHO holds the position, any high ranking political figure is going to receive the best medical care available. Regardless of how you feel about the man, Trump is STILL the POTUS and will therefore be treated differently, because he is the "leader of the free world". Boris Johnson I'm sure was giving the best medical care his country could give him when he came down with it (and wouldn't you know, England has socialized medicine).

    The hatred you have for this man is unreal.

    Were you all on here complaining that RBG was given the best medical treatment for her condition?? Treatments us little folks can't get?? Because if you weren't, then you all are hypocrites.

    My two uncles passed away from pancreatic cancer. I know a friend from HS who is currently dying from pancreatic cancer. But, am I on here complaining that a Supreme Court Justice received way better medical care than anyone I know? Was I on here complaining that the tens of thousands of people who die from all sorts of cancers every year in the US didn't get the treatment RBG did?? NO. Of course she's going to receive better medical care. She was a Supreme Court Justice. Her job mattered, unlike our jobs.

    So, put aside your hate for the man for 30 seconds to a minute and be grown up about the fact that he IS the POTUS and he WILL be treated differently and better because he is a high-ranking official. I cannot stand my governor, but if he were to contract COVID, I wouldn't be complaining that he got better care than the "little people" of my state.

    Grow the fuck up, people. He's the leader of the country (whether you like it or not) and any leader from any country would be treated similarly.

    Oh my Lord you are the picture of cognitive dissonance.
    RBG was actually in favor of the ACA that gave people medical insurance even with pre existing conditions.
    Your president is against the ACA he has threatened to repeal and replace it since day one and has done absolutely nothing. Even with a majority in the courts house and Senate he did nothing. What he did do was pass a 2 trillion dollar tax cut that helped him and his buddies out and did nothing for people like you.
    RBG never lied to the American and told us Covid 19 would disappear by spring or summer. She never threatened to halt life saving stimulus just to prove a point. That woman did more for the American people in a single year than nearly anyone else in their whole careers. How dare you madam. RBG was a national treasure.
    And for the love of God get off HRC already she lost your guy won and the country has gone to utter shit. He had his shot and failed miserably.

    Well said, and spot-on sir! I refuse to engage the obvious selective outrage (and other BS), but props to you for putting out some very real, and relevant facts.

    Without even realizing, you ended up getting the actual point what most of us are saying about this, even if it was completely by mistake.

    As I said before, 99.99999% of people in this country who contract covid will NOT be flown to Walter Reed Hospital. They will NOT have a team of doctors monitoring their every move. They will NOT have the luxury of having any and all treatment that they need to have completely covered by taxpayers.

    The rest of us don't get the luxury of daily testing. The rest of have to worry about things like co-pays and hospital stays. The rest of us have to worry about missing work for days (if not weeks) if they have to go quarantine and possibly end up being evicted.

    The rest of us do not have the luxuries afforded to the president. So when the president tells people that it isn't that bad and that we shouldn't worry about it, even though it has killed thousands of people and destroyed the economy? It's tone deaf as fuck and like it or not we have the absolute right to not only speak on it, but to criticize Trump as much as possible. If that bothers you so much then there are plenty of pro-Trump internet forums you can probably become a member of.

    Trump telling the rest of us not to worry about a virus because he just so happens to have the kind of top-notch medical treatment that the rest of us will never get is the height of ridiculousness and it shows just how out of touch and delusional he is. Maybe instead of telling us to "grow the fuck up" you should get down off your high horse and pay attention to what most of us are actually saying instead of what you wish we said.

    She can't there is some part of the brain that is missing with Trump supporters. Literally no matter how bad he does that keep supporting him. I've never seen anything like this in all my life. Dude is threatening the safety of herself and her child yet she defends him and focuses on people who no longer hold office.

    So agree.

    Also misunderstanding the concept that the people are upset that he's assuming it would be nothing but a thing for us too because we would have the great care that he does.Therefore there's no worries with us getting covid too. That is f_ing ignorant.

    How many normal people said that they were turned away from emergency rooms when they presented with overt covid symptoms and were not even treated. Many people have said it took multiple visits to different ER's to even get looked at.

    So definitely we would not have as good a of care if we get even get looked at or as good of outcome possibly

    I see it with a ton of his supporters and more hardcore backers just pretend that it's the media who's the enemy. Yeah, Trump may be saying insane things on TV and Tweeting insane things on a daily basis uninterrupted and unedited, but somehow it's CNN's fault for actually showing it. That level of delusion is cult-like and when he loses, they won't need therapy. They'll need de-programming.

    They'll be violent very violent and as a result as sitting president at the time he'll be able to do some martial law because they are a clear and present nature. And since he won't need their support anymore he's going to brutalize the fuck out of them.

    For months down here in Georgia, you couldn't even go get a test even if you had symptoms. You had to call your PCP (if you had one) and basically get a referral to get tested. Even the urgent care didn't take walk-ins. Yet the president and all those closest to him were regularly getting tested while the rest of us had to basically wait in limbo.

    But since his entire life has been one of absurd privilege it pretty much plays into how he's treated this. He couldn't be more out of touch on this if he tried. He's the textbook example of someone who was born on third but thought he hit a triple.

    Your pic isn't showing, could you please repost it?

    BTW, You are slaying it with your facts and common sense. Excellent calling out the arrogant double standard that dems employ when it comes to their own behavior.
