Trump is at the White House but under lock and key. The WH staff was directed by Pence to stay home. Trump's people have directed staff to wear a mask, wash your hands, socially distance, and report any illness. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/04/us/politics/trump-virus-meadows.html

Trump's doctor says he might be discharged from the hospital as early as Monday.
Anyone want to take bets (for fun only, no money or thing of value) on that?
I say NO.

Trumpism could be thrown on the scrap heap in just a few weeks.
Note that Mitch has been nowhere near trump or trumpists these weeks. I don't think he was at the ACB spreader event. Mitch can read the winds. Just in case the R majority survives in the senate he's going to be on the non-trump faction. Or at least try to be. If the senate flips, EVERYONE is going to be on the non-trump faction. Except that moran kennedy from LA.
That's good to read, I was feeling so good before Trump's covid. He bombed the debate and Biden went up to 14% over Trump and raised a record amount of cash, people saw Trump unhinged, Republicans and former employees were turning on him, the tax expose exposed him for the fraud and cheat and the poor businessman that he is, initially the covid 19 diagnosis exposed him as a reckless idiot it was all good. But now I am worried.
This is the October surprise. I don't feel good about this. The whole conversation has changed and no one is talking about taxes, his being unhinged, or anger toward Trump. I am afraid he will come out of this as a hero, to a tremendous celebration from his base, and him saying he was right all along and we need to open everything up. Presidents always get a huge popularity boost after illness. I fear this might be a game changer.
I need more posts like this one from Agip to talk me down.
Does anyone else think there are more people around Trump that are positive, that we just don't know about?

Of course not! He can't go to jail if he is dead. I just hope his restlessness doesn't help him out in the election.
Yeah, I want to see him go to prison or at leas be hounded legally for years after he is out of office. That's not the only reason though. I never wish for anyone to die. Just not in my nature. I am 100% ethical at all times, unlike the a$$hole Trumpers. Will I shed a tear if he dies? No. I won't even feel sorry for him like I do when most famous people I've not met die. He was an idiot. He brought this on himself. He showed what an a$$hole he is by having those Secret Service people drive him around in a car that not only is bullet proof, but uses circulated air so that it is not vulnerable to a chemical attack. Now these agents have to quarantine for 14 days, and there is a chance they caught this from him. Nice.

No one who is not a Trump supporter is feeling sympathy for the boob. In fact, virtually everyone I know including some who typically back him think he's an idiot for exposing himself and others in this matter. May not change their vote but the reaction has been anything but sympathetic.

We'd better clarify this before the election. How many electoral votes is considered a landslide?

Gotta love how BOB comes back on like nothing happened since Friday. And of course instead of addressing this massive twist of fate and gross negligence by Trump and the whole WH admin, including the fake pics of trump “working” from WR, Biff comes on to post the last thing or two supporting his prediction. Biff will not be a man of his word on Election Day. He will sprint the fk out of here the moment he smells defeat. He’ll find himself in California again.
At this point it is very accurate to call trump a bio terrorist.

Of course the COVID hospitalization served as a giant distraction for trump who probably had one his worst weeks ever. In this case I am ok with it, hammer him on COVID thoroughly. It is one of his biggest blunders.
Btw, did anyone see him be moved into the WH?
Fodder for the next debate
