We can't believe any of this. All of this could totally be a plant job by the WH.
I see this being a situation where he fakes having it, recovers and talks about how it really is the just like the flu. Everything about him running for POTUS, getting elected, policies he's put in place, etc. has been all about him making money. So, him getting re-elected is the same. This is just another desperate ploy by him to try to win. He knows he's losing so he's trying anything possible to win.

Some pro-Biden movement overall and in the individual states. As someone noted, Pence to win shot up. Also, pretty big movement in "Will Trump finish his first term," which has been sort of a hybrid impeachment/illness/resign-if-he-loses market. |

It would be so fucked up if Trump really has it, gave it to Biden, Biden dies and Trump wins because of it.
That would be a 2020 fucked up thing to do.

Here's how insane this week has been: less than a week ago, POTUS made the most controversial Supreme Court nomination of our lifetime, and right now there is NO mention of the nominee on the front pages of CNN or MSNBC's web sites, and barely a mention on that of Fox News.

Thinking through governing, and it's a nightmare to have the President in quarantine. How is he briefed? What happens if there's a national security crisis? How are materials brought back and forth?
Even things like food and clothing should work differently.

Also, the media has generally given her a pass over the last few years because she almost looks cute, but Hope Hicks is a pretty horrible person, right?
If you spend a lot of your work hours maskless within 6 feet of the President of the United States, then maybe you should spend your non-work hours isolating and staying safe? We could end up in a nuclear war because she just had to go to some cocktail party or whatever. |

The President knows Hope Hicks tested positive, is feeling lethargic himself, and yet still goes to a fundraiser without a mask. *Pounds head on table*

And you just know that there was a non-zero chance, they would have planted the seeds for a "Biden gave Trump Corona" conspiracy theory had the Hope Hicks news been kept quiet (or she would have tested negative, false negatives being not that unlikely, thus no obvious candidate). Also, get mentally ready for a lot of Hydroxychloroquine Infomercials ...

Trump's camp didn't even reach out to the Biden camp to let them know about this.

The Lincoln project and Biden camps need to hammer home the fact that this disease has long term consequences we are still learning about and do we want to elect a leader for 4 more years not knowing how this could effect his health in the long run.

Basically saying Atlas is a political dope and that people should listen to Fauci and Birx. And that masks are really important. Of course, then they brought in some random doctor right after that to try to walk some of it and tell people not to panic. SI

Thing I am not looking forward to:
If the GOP loses this November, lots and lots of serious people writing serious articles about how the GOP only lost because Trump got the novel coronavirus and so it would be improper and norm-breaking for the Democrats to pass any laws or appoint any judges for the next two years. |

haha. sorry was typing from my phone. HE recounted how at the debates Bidens whole camp was wearing masks throughout and not only did the Trump camp not wear masks, they were offered them and waved them off. He also pointed out that was in violation of the rules set by the Cleveland clinic. They also played a clip of Trump mocking Biden for wearing a mask, but cut it off before the really incriminating part and Wallace immediately chimes in that he wished they played the whole clip. |

So this probably means the 2nd debate is canceled right (the Town Hall one). No way Trump is going to agree to a Zoom debate. If I was Biden, I'd push for it be rescheduled instead (it's Biden's best format, and even Trump realizes that interrupting when someone is trying to answer a question by a voter is even worse optics than arguing with a moderator).
Also thankfully it means no rallys with a bunch of unmasked, standing close together people for the next 2 weeks.

The White House is acknowledging that Trump is having 'mild symptoms'. I imagine they are probably underplaying it.

It is so hard to tell with his scrambled egg way of thinking and talking, but I think that he's saying something along of the lines of "Y'all know how sluts be, always fucking cops and soldiers, amirite?"

What he's saying is, you know, she's a pretty young girl, and of course all these strong military men and cops want to hug and kiss her. They can't keep their hands off of her! Of course she got sick.

Pence showed up in his place for a conference call at 12:15. Was the perfect chance for Trump to brag about how good he feels. Yeah, I’d bet he’s not feeling so hot.

According to the medical people on the news, we likely won't know how bad this might be for the President until middle-late next week.
