I have no idea. I'm just going off what was reported. Who knows if it's true or not?

CNN was right. He looks on death’s door. 
Trump needs a new ad .... I can give an interview from the hospital with covid without a teleprompter telling me what to say. Biden can't give an interview in his basement without one.

Either way, it’s like they want to twist everything. One side says he fakes it and another is saying he’s critical. That’s all fear-mongering and wordplay. They said the next 48 are critical, not that he’s critical.
It was CBS evening news.
Lol, what's the difference?

Teflon Trump? Get well POTUS!
Even for you, this is pretty far out there.
How does getting sick, largely due to his own stubbornness and poor judgement, equate to securing his re-election? Most people will conclude that this is akin to running around with scissors in your hand or driving home drunk...not something that instills a lot of confidence.
I agree with you, but still, isn't it amazing how Trump manages to draw all the attention to himself no matter what? He blots out the sun. He's Jesus to some, he's the Devil himself to others. But no matter what happens, all the attention is on him.
The way I see it (and of course this is a product of my own opinion of the guy), it's as if he does one bad thing, and follows it with a worse thing in order to get the previous bad thing out of the news. Didn't pay any taxes? So he goes to the debate and acts like he's on meth and we all forget about the tax issue. Getting criticism for his debate performance? So he gets himself infected with Covid and all the attention goes to him being in the hospital.
He stumbles from one disaster after another, with each disaster taking the attention off the previous disaster. And all the attention is on him.

To be fair, it wasn't CNN who said it. It was Mark Meadows who said it. CNN, FOXNews, all the others who reported it were not claiming it was true. They were just reporting that someone in the White House told them that. Which is perfectly true.
Trump photo op fakery-

Trump appears to be signing a blank sheet of paper. Also, according to Newsweek, the data embedded in the photos indicate that the photos were taken 10 minutes apart. So he took one picture, put on a jacket, moved to a different room, took a different picture, and "Here I am [acting like I am] working for the American people."

I've also seen a 400 foot photoshopped whale bigger than a bridge.

I was alluding to my comments on how CNN was stating their conjecture as gospel and basically calling the doctor's statement lies. They were definitely attempting to paint a picture of an infirm President.
On another note, Chris Wallace is gunning for Trump on his Sunday show. I can't say I blame him.

Lol, meanwhile lots of other people who don't have TDS see his taxes, performance on the stage, and personal defeat of chinese lung aids as marks in the win column. You see disaster because that's what you want to see as you well know.
There is no denying Trump looks foolish for getting the 'rona. With an extraordinary bubble of preventative screening around him, he flouted protection protocols and heckled Joe Biden for frequently wearing a mask. Trump stepped on his crank, plain and simple.

And when he's fine and back to work on Monday it gives credence to his position that its not that serious and we should be back to normal now.

He definitely has time to make up any ground he may have lost.
I guess we have an answer on how well that malaria drug works.

And if he's not fine, you will find some other way to spin this as a win for Trump.

Well he doesn't have malaria, does he? Hmmmm?

Hate to burst y'alls safe space, but it looks like the pain in y'alls "rear" is fine..
I wonder if this will even get reported on. I doubt it..
