So, it's been half an hour since this presser was to have started.  A doctor simply coming out and updating, answering some questions, etc.

Maybe it's nothing.

 

He’s got to get his lies straight. I mean this is the same guy that said Trump could live 100 years or something, right?

[Francisco 2.0 32,392]

Chris Christie, come on down!

 

Edit:  I'm slow today.

Brainworms. 

[Anastasis 23,469]

Presser on now.

[Anastasis 23,469]

Not on O2. 

[Anastasis 23,469]

This doc seems like maybe he needs some though. 

[Francisco 2.0 32,392]

He received the experimental drug 48 hours ago?

Thursday morning?

Either that doc misspoke, or there needs to be a lot of explaining.

[Aqua Buddha 14,596]

Since Chris Christie weighs like 800 pounds, this might end badly.

I don't see this at all. He's president and in couple at-risk categories. You take every precaution. And "experimental drug" almost certainly isn't as crazy as it sounds. That label covers tons of new tweaks or cocktails of existing compounds that are based on plenty of solid data but which just haven't gone through every regulatory process in the new form/ mix because those things take time. 

I think they sent him so they could give him the regeneron. I would imagine there is a small risk of anaphylaxis giving antibodies and you would want to be ready for that. 

[Anastasis 23,469]

Regeneron cocktail and Remdesivir. Kinda aggressive imo if there is nothing else going on.  Says that his sats are currently 96, no 02 today, deflects that he has probably received 02 last night.

What do you think about ab cocktail + remdesivir?

[MC Fresh Breath 4,074]

Come on down!

gottdammit. fucking fox. normally i wouldn't give a shit, but stomping on cockroaches is much more important than pr stunts.

[Francisco 2.0 32,392]

Doc not giving the last negative test date is telling.  Wouldn't surprise me if he hadn't been tested for some time now.

 

 

[Francisco 2.0 32,392]

Doc not answering the oxygen question outright.

 

 

[burntorangebongos 10,710]

Chris Christie

[thepop 4,409]

So he's definitely been on supplemental oxygen

He’s REALLY deflecting on the O2 question. Not on O2 Friday or Saturday. But they’ve let a couple of things slip indicating they knew about this Thursday. 

[Anastasis 23,469]

Doc won't answer on oxygen.  Triplehorn cocktail was discussed, but he is not taking it.

Yeah, he started showing symptoms Thursday. 

[Aqua Buddha 14,596]

I find it telling they waited until the markets closed on a Friday before revealing what was going on and flying him to WR.

[Dahobbs 17,534]

Pretty clear from this that he was on oxygen yesterday or Thursday

It’s very weird and not trying to be all conspiracy theorist but he definitely is deflecting that question over and over again like a politician would.

[Francisco 2.0 32,392]

Doc doing the best he can, but given how much lying, misdirection and outright coverups this admin does, he doesn't have many friends among the assembled media.

[thepop 4,409]

"slightly overweight"

[Dahobbs 17,534]

"slightly overweight" in the same way that the sun is "slightly hot." 

[troph 24,798]

It's possible that they took him to the hospital yesterday because he could still walk to the helicopter, before a time when maybe he can't.
Imagine the optics if they would have waited a week in the White House to see if his case stayed mild, then had to take him to the hospital.  What if they would have had to wheel him out to Marine One on a stretcher with oxygen and nurses wearing hazmat suits, three weeks before an election?  Not a good look.
Whatever happens to Trump now will be out of sight.

I think this is most likely it.

There was nothing to suggest he might be lying at 1am when he confessed. Now they can manage the message with him in the hospital, HIPAA and no public spaces, easier to control the leaks without the entire WH staff running around. Now we don’t know if it’s mild, moderate or deadly.

[Francisco 2.0 32,392]

The decision to transfer him to the hospital was simply that he is the President.

Right.

Glad to see people aren’t caught up in conspiracy theories. It’s sad whenever anyone or any group gets caught up in debilitating fear and mental illness— whether it be the alt-right with their Q insanity or those who the last 4 years of Trump have broke their brains.

Anonymous sourced conspiracy theories involving lizard people and zombie JFK Jr and investigations that crank out dozens of indictments, convictions, guilty pleas, prison sentences, a dozen more federal cases, and an impeachment seem about the same.

[Radical Larry 28,615]

Thanks for the update, Dr Deflection.

[BrickHorn 18,234]

He was on O2 at some point yesterday. That’s clear. Maybe for panic attacks, imo. 

[Francisco 2.0 32,392]

And it's over on the steroid question.

 

 

[Anastasis 23,469]

Did that dumbfuck just walk over to teh doc and pat him on the back.  You fucking stupid motherfucker. 

[BrickHorn 18,234]

Sanjay Gupta pointing out that doc said the diagnosis was 72 hours ago. That’s Wednesday morning. Holy shit. Biden test results are going to have me on edge all week.

[thepop 4,409]

 

lies lies lies

[Francisco 2.0 32,392]

72 hours since his diagnosis.  That was Wednesday.

 

So, he tested positive on Wednesday and did his things on Thursday?

 

And took the experimental drug (according to other doc) 48 hours ago?

 

 

[burntorangebongos 10,710]

We haven't heard from Barr, and John Roberts, who were near KellyAnne at the event. Also, no word from Mitch.  Pelosi I hope was careful around the dicks from the WH that she was negotiating with. This sucks that Covid is running our country more than our leaders. 

The WH is a petrie dish that they better be deep cleaning right now. Fumigate it so the sake of everyone that has to work there for fuck's sake.

Watch his mannerisms as he walks from teh WH to M1.  He does a little hand tap thing on his leg as he gets close to the chopper, and does a double tap on the hand rails as he boards.  There does seem to be an anxiety thing going on there.  Can't really blame him. I would be kinda nervous boarding the starflight to the hospital with COVID as well.

I'm starting to rethink this whole atheism thing

No. Because he could walk. Not because they knew it was mild. I actually expect it’s serious. But now they can manage it. Most cases of CV could be handled in the WH but if he went down and was carted off that would not look good for him. Get him out on the initial slide down while he can walk. That’s what I think happened.

[Red Five 40,858]

Wait, he was diagnosed Wednesday morning and then went to a rally? As shitty and stupid as these people are, that would be excessively shitty and stupid. 

[Anastasis 23,469]

Game time bitches. 

[henrygandorf 29,191]

i personally thought it was weird that the doctor brought up hunter biden.

Excessively shitty and stupid is something I usually hope for these days. That's the high bar. I try to hope for "not insanely evil and depraved."

[used2b 249]

So....he got a positive on Wednesday?

[Gourmand 7,774]

Fuck Trump! He brought back NFL football and now he ruined it as well.

Pats/Chiefs tomorrow called off.
