why is he going by helicopter and not by car? probably easier/faster than car esp. given the traffic in DC area and probably also safer (less chance of an accident or attack)

Is anyone else wondering if he’s going to come out to marine one in his jammies?

And why is he going to the hospital if his symptoms are mild? Precaution or so they say. Making MarineOne wait as usual.

Anybody else think it's weird his last tweet was 16 hours ago? He usually tweets at least 4-5 times a day...

Traffic has become a non-issue in these pandemic days. While I want life to go back to normal, I will be very sad when traffic here also returns to normal. The beltway has been positively speedy at all hours, unless there has been an accident.

Does anyone else wonder if we will be told the truth once Trump is at Walter Reed?
Because if he is in the ICU, wouldn't Pence then be acting President?
But if he is in the ICU and not doing well but we don't find this out, he is still President...

Re: Marine One to the hospital. Apparently (according to NBC) that’s the preferred way for the POTUS to travel from the WH to Walter Reed provided the weather is cooperative.

I'm not convinced that he's not actually in a car being driven there while everyone looks at Marine1 on the south lawn.

I think GWB was the last to transfer powers temporarily when he underwent a colonoscopy.

They insisted Boris Johnson was going to hospital just as a precaution but within a short time he was in intensive care. Yes exactly and he was a lot sicker then they let on, he named his child after one of the nurses that he said "saved his life" However Trump is such a coward he was probably begging the doctors to admit him to a hospital, I bet he's shit scared right now...and good, he ought to be.

I do NOT like Trump, at all. I do not like anything about him. And yes, I know that he has downplayed this virus up and down and all around for many months. I am not dancing around with joy that he has the virus. While I sort of feel bad for him, sort of, I would feel more bad if he hadn't spent so many months downplaying this virus. But I still do not wish for a bad outcome for him, other than to wish and hope that he will change his tune about the virus and how serious it is. I don't want anyone to be sick and suffering from this. I despise Trump, and I despise how he has handled this.
But I still do not like how the tv stations all day have been focusing on how he is obese. He clearly is, and he clearly has risk factors, probably the biggest factor is his age. But I still can't get behind all this talk of him being obese.
Right now, I am hoping that if he is really sick that his heart and thoughts will be changed in regard to this terrible virus.

Meh, I think they're just being pro-active. He is (unfortunately) the president after all. He gets the best medical attention.

That would only work if he actually HAD a heart, which he clearly does not.

I think he's an idiot for not wearing a mask given his age and any other risk factors. I think he's an idiot for not wearing one to at least set the example. I think he's an absolute moron for having made fun of Joe for wearing one.
And my eye is twitching just thinking about the stupidity of it. But I still wish him and everyone infected a safe and speedy recovery. Sadly, I think we'll be hearing about more.

And why is he going to the hospital if his symptoms are mild? Say it with me: “Out of an abundance of caution.”

Obesity has a medical definition. It’s not being said for personal attack. Same as listing any other comorbidity when talking about someone with Covid - age, asthma, etc.
It is what it is.

If he is indeed positive for COVID, and has few or minor symptoms, he will be back on the campaign trail with a vengence, telling everyone how he KNEW it was just like a cold.

I still have many skeptical and uncharitable thoughts about all of this. He's effectively captured the news cycle for as long as he wants to. Anything Biden does is going to get buried. Trump's own disastrous performance at the debate will quickly be forgotten as "Pray for the President" starts trending on conservative social media. He can hide out in Walter Reed and watch his sympathy numbers tick upward, and then emerge "victorious" at the time of his choosing.
Maybe he is really sick, IDK. But it's sad that this president has lied to his own advantage so often that we have to wonder.

If it were just that, I think that Melania would be going to Walter Reed too. There is something more, I think. Especially since they now have mentioned that he is now running a fever.

Unless he’s physically too ill too, nothing will stop that man from tweeting his stupid little cold heart out. I was very skeptical this morning and now I’m wondering if he’s way sicker than we think, and we’re being told a lie about that 🤔 The last photos of him on Thursday getting of MarineOne aren’t pretty. He looks rough as hell. Even for his lard, Orange ass.

For those not in front of a tv - he walked and was wearing suit and tie and mask.
