Poor devil if he truly does have the virus, especially his wife ...... hasn't she suffered enough already???
But I see a ploy to get a sympathy vote when the voters go to the polls November 3rd. For all the distain he has had for anyone with the virus, cutting funding to the WHO, "We're not testing so we don't have the virus", etc; it's awfully coincidental that he should contract the virus a month before he either gets re-elected or voted out. Makes for a great story afterwards..... "I would've been President for the second term if it wasn't for Covid; I couldn't get out and rally the supporters because of covid; People couldn't vote for me because they thought I was going to die anyway because of covid......"
But that would only happen if he were psycho enough to use it............. Get well soon, POTUS.... If you are going to lose, I'd like to see you lose fairly so none can question the validity of the polls.
Some are punting the idea that he's faking it. To avoid another train-wreck debate with Biden? To generate a support movement of sympathy to boost rating? The conspiracy theories proliferate......
ElysianFields: Imagine both presidential contenders down with Covid and incapacitated by November 3rd?
I imagine Biden should be quarantining given his close proximity to Trump at the debate, along with everyone else until they get a negative test result.
Maybe it is just a ploy to put a spanner in the works, except testing positive makes Trump look like an idiot for being so resistant to safety protocols.
Maybe Trump is trying to get his election delay.
One thing's for sure, there is no limit to Trump's untrustworthiness, nor any tactic too low to get what he wants. We know that which is why we raise every possibility we can think of.
