Honest to god, I don't want to hear another word from a Trump supporter about any subject ever again. THIS my friends is rock bottom for the Republican Party. It simply cannot go any lower. Tomorrow we’ll be saying “hey drive by, hold my beer”

JFC. What responsible doctor would allow him to be around other people?!! Can ANYONE say no to this reckless piece of garbage?!
People with Covid are dying ALONE at hospitals because of the precautionary rules. It is INSANE that he's allowed to do such inconsiderate actions in public. Think of all the trump cultists who are now going to be prancing around being Covid Positive. I just can't anymore.

It would be against medical advice, and most likely he signed away liability, but a hospital can't hold you against your own will. They can say, you can't come back if you leave, but no one is going to do that to the POTUS due to the blowback it would cause.

Walter Reed is also a naval hospital, and that monster is the Commander in Chief... so.

What the actual hell, he’s leaving the hospital? In a damn campaign like motorcade? Has this horrible reality show we’ve been living the last 3 years become the movie Dave now? 😨😨 Is he actually leaving or is he being taken for a ride around the block to boost his ego? You got it!!!!!!!!

Sadly there is no bottom. It's hard to believe that I could be any more disgusted than I am right now, but I'm sure there will be a new outrage soon.

letting him drive in the vehicle by himself, against safety protocols? Might be a bloody good idea as things are at the moment for you all.

You are 100 percent correct. BTDT. Only full PPE entered my room, food service left paper bag on door handle contents on paper and plastic arrived cold. Medical staff brought in as available. Doctors and WH all lying!!

And MSM continues to speak about all-things-Trump. He makes sure of it (or does Mark Burnett???), even when he's supposedly in a hospital trying to beat Covid. He just risked people's lives, more, again! Sick fuck! My thoughts: With all of the West Wing people testing positive, I have to wonder if he has Covid or if he wanted to ditch the place until it's thoroughly sanitized. He took a few layers of his orange paint off and headed to WR Hospital. It's either that or that today's episode was another well-produced couple of minutes of him PRETENDING to be okay. Maybe the doctors amped him up on steroids and meds and let him go out? I'd love to have seen him get in/out of the car....... The pre-car video just sent me over the top! He made it seem like this was part of a freakin' reality show ("watch what I'm going to do!"). We're 4 weeks out and we should be focused on BOTH candidates right now, but he's still trying everything he could to garner the spotlight. We have to question his every move because he's getting more desperate. One more thing: MSM (mainstream media) is putting out Jason Miller now as the "Senior Advisor" to the campaign? Really? How DARE they even show him after what he did!!!!!!!!! He needs to hide in a hole forever. I'd be screaming out, "SMOOTHIE" if I were anywhere near him. How do his actions fall in line with this campaign's "right to life" idea??? Disgusting!

Trump seems perky and looks like he's doing well. But I think his appearance is misleading. He is taking dexamethasone, a steroid. I took this steroid when I was on chemo for breast cancer. I took it the day before my chemo infusion, the day of my infusion, and the day after my infusion. I felt really good on the day of my infusion and the day after. But two days after my infusion (when the drug wore off) I really felt the side effects of chemo. (This drug also makes some people appear flush.)
So Trumps upbeat appearance may be due to the dexamethasone and not because he's 'doing well'.

People with Covid are dying ALONE at hospitals because of the precautionary rules. It is INSANE that he's allowed to do such inconsiderate actions in public. My sweet, sweet MIL died in July. She went into the hospital in May with what they thought was coronavirus because she had been exposed to it. She didn't have it, but she went downhill. She had health problems already that just kept getting worse. Kidney failure. Congestive heart failure. She suffered for two months. And it that two months, the only two people here were allowed in to visit her were my husbands two sisters--one of them is a nurse who works in the same hospital system my MIL was in. The other is retired, came from out of state and quarantined in a hotel for two weeks so she could go see her mom in her final weeks. This sweet lovely woman who had 7 kids, so many grandkids, so many people who loved her, died alone without seeing any of her loved ones because of COVID. The hospital she was in is not far from Chicago, and things were bad there, so they wouldn't let anyone in because of the worry of bringing in COVID. Yet our f*ckhead president is allowed to get in a practically air sealed car with other people to drive around and have his ego stroked. I just can't anymore. I am so angry by this. He is turning this into a show of how C19 is not that bad, and his followers are going to lap it all up. UGH.

I’m circling back to this because I am so thoroughly disgusted. I know y’all say it can get worse, and unfortunately, you’re probably right. I think though that car ride is a turning point for me. I am over trump supporters, and I’m going to lump ANYONE who votes for him for ANY reason as a supporter.
Up until now I’ve tried to keep an open mind when I read political threads. It’s become increasingly difficult the last 2-3 months for all of us, myself included. Not any more.
If you’re not voting for Biden then you are not a good person.
Like I said upthread a bit, I’m not interested in hearing another word out of a trump supporter’s mouth. IRL or here. I have never put anyone on *ignore* for the content that they post (except obvious trolls). I’ve only ever used *ignore* for tone. Not anymore. I just went through and made every trump supporter i could think of invisible).
Give it a try. Let them spew their crazy amongst themselves. We’re not going to change their minds, so make them just POOF and disappear. Life’s too short for this kind of BS here. TG I know less than a handful like them IRL.

From the article sunnycamom posted: Some Trump allies are entertaining conspiracy theories that the White House outbreak was caused by someone with political motives. “It’s weird that all these Republicans are getting it,” a prominent Republican told me. “I don’t know what the fuck is going on. But one thing I’ve learned is: when something major happens thirty days before an election, it usually has to do with the election.” Good Lord. Are they really that obtuse??? They have all been not wearing masks, making fun of people who do wear masks, ranting about opening things back up, gathering in large groups and rallies...but the reason so many Republicans have it is because it was caused by someone with political motives? I've been expecting this. I figured Trump himself would come out and say that Biden had someone with the virus cough all over something that he then slipped onto Trump's desk. And now when he loses the election, he can blame it on the fact that someone did this to him on purpose. He's a victim! The people all love him! He would have won had he not been sabotaged! It couldn't possibly be the fact that he doesn't take any precautions and makes fun of those that do. I can see him demanding a do over. My first though in watching the video is that he looks really pale but then I realized that he must not have had time to pack his orange stuff before going to the hospital. I am so tired of this man.

And the twisted thing is that he would LOVE it if he knew people were questioning his every move and his motives. He loves all of this attention. And it is getting me so f**king angry that the MSM continues to help him. They are falling into his trap of keeping everyone captivated on his health instead of still talking about his tax fraud and Melania spewing anger and hatred. Liberal media my ass. They aren't helping any!!

Who would this be? I think that the White House keeps the physicians (and test administrators) who work there/with them very tightly under control. HIPAA allows that. Per HIPAA, they (medical personnel) legally cannot disclose any medical information (including test results) to anyone without the permission of the individual. I, personally, find it telling that Barr travelled to the White House today and yesterday to take COVID tests. Why go there to take COVID tests unless you knew that the results would not be told to anyone else (or leaked)? There have to be other more convenient places to take a COVID test. Security to get into the White House is a bitch. You would think that Barr would have a variety of places to get tested. www.cnn.com/2020/10/03/politics/william-barr-coronavirus-quarantine/index.htmlWho would the medical supervisors be? Dunno. I assumed a fed employer screening program would have to be supervised by a skilled fed agency. Can they just buy a bunch of tests, hire a tech and contract with a lab? The results go directly to each employee, who can then choose to just keep working? Who tells a positive guest they can’t enter? I would hope they’re following the requirement to notify the health department who tested positive. That involves name, age, sex, test date and contact information. If the District has contact tracing, imagine the poor schlub who has to contact “Trump, Donald.” Lordy. Long way of still saying “Dunno.” LOL. I understand the concept of medical privacy. I guess I’m confused by how this vaunted “Safest place in the country” testing works amid the interplay of privacy and public health. Also wondering at what point medical staff could (ethically? pragmatically?) force a president’s hand by refusing to provide continued demanded residential treatment (instead of hospitalization). And, of course, imagining the tantrums. I’ll submit my movie script when it’s ready. My people have reached out to Harrison Ford to play the grizzled, conflicted doc. I am fairly close to certain that the testing program at the White House bears little-to-no resemblance to run-of-the-mill federal employee testing programs available/in place at other federal agencies, like the Department or Education, for example. I am willing to bet that there is a physician - not a tech - that is under the control of the White House, who is running the White House program. And no, I would be willing to bet that they manage to circumvent notifying the Health Department, leaving it up to the individuals tested and their handlers to decide how/if to share the news if they test positive. I will guess that they could make the case that the test results of important politicians are related to national security and therefore could be classified and not subject to normal reporting protocols. Walter Reed is a joint military facility (Walter Reed, at its old location was Army, and then it moved into the existing naval hospital at Bethesda, which then became renamed “Walter Reed National Military Medical Center - WRNMMC), and as Commander in Chief, the President can order the military physicians about. The interesting thing about Walter Reed, as it exists now, is that not all physicians employed there are military. My oncologist, for example, is a civilian doc who spends half his time at WRNMMC and half across the street at NIH. He wouldn’t be under the same constraints regarding following Commander in Chief orders, but I’ll guess that the President’s team is mostly/all military.

My husband and I were just talking about how awful it would be to be around Trump all hyped up on steroids. I wasn’t great to be around when I was on steroids for my thyroid eye disease and then for my chemo, and I’d like to think that I am generally more pleasant to be around/considerate of those around me than Trump.

I heard that Joe Biden’s rating have improved since the so called debate so I imagine he’s panicking. He may feel ok today but he’s not out of the woods yet - Boris Johnson didn’t feel that bad until about day 8 or something? We don’t even really know what day we’re on right now, but you’re right, he’s still got crucial days ahead with this disease.

It just keeps on keeping on spreading. CNN just reported that he's had 4 negative tests since president's announcement including one today, he's self quarantining for now but is expected to be back at work next week.
