It will be interesting to see if he stays in quarantine. He ignores the experts, craves the attention of big crowds and is freaked out he may lose the election, I think the urge to go awol will be strong, unless he actually feels bad.
I’m waiting for the conspiracy theories to start.

Considering it was the military doctor and not the crazy doctor that put out the statement, I'm less incline to believe it's a hoax. I wouldn't think he'd be in on it, so they would have had to give the guy false positive tests and such.

Could this be a false announcement, Trump really doesn't have COVID, thus will "conquer" it easily, and then claim how strong he is and continue to downplay the virus as nothing? Are there any reputable people that are verifying that Trump does indeed have COIVD? yeah - I couldn't help but think the same thing. Trump contracts covid - but surprise! Conquers it in 7 days and back out into the field, proving him 'right' all along... It is way too much poetic justice for him to really get it and feel any true illness and have an epiphany.... It could also be a way for him to switch the focus from his Proud Boy comments and tax issues. Then when he "beats" covid, anyone who says otherwise will be put down as horrible and nasty. But the downside is all the "serves you right" rhetoric that is flying around now, plus his base now has to accept covid is serious, and that they've been lied to, and future rallys (if any) will have smaller turnouts. Seems a real stupid risk to take, and no sane person would do it, but with Trump one never knows.

Staggering news with so many unknown possible outcomes - the most superficially benign being if he just has a mild version than any headway we were possibly making on masks and such has just been blown to shit.

Nobody is getting hurt. Isn't that, or something along those lines, what trump said a couple of days ago? Personally I hope his whole friggin clan gets it, none of them dies, and all of them become long timers - after he gets his ass whooped in November exactly this. he dies, he becomes a martyr and we get stuck with Pence. if he skates through, it validates all his hoax claims. he needs to have a serious enough case that it sinks in that this is not a fucking hoax....and then maybe some lingering effects as a nice 🖕 souvenir.

Also if he has a serious case it might make him be a little more proactive and actually get off his ass to organize some help when we get hit with the flu/Covid wave this fall. Of course he would also have to develop empathy at the same time. Unlikely.

Boris Johnson seems to have a different attitude after having a serious but not deadly case. Maybe, we the people, should demand a virtual debate. He will either still be a total stupid asshole, or he will be weak and weird, losing some fans.

The problem is he is now going to be saying "I've had it, it's nothing. Dems all scared of it, took Cuomo down, didn't do anything to me. I told you I'm the healthiest guy out there."

Trump and Melania test positive for COVID...Well, of course he tested positive, what with the alarmingly ignorant way he's been behaving! give him some hydroxychloroquine and shove a light bulb up his well-marbled ass. He'll be fine. What about all the other objects already there? 🧟♀️

Ha! I hope he feels bad. I don't want anyone to die or be hospitalized, but if you're not taking it seriously and then get it, I want you to feel horrible for a couple of weeks at least. Maybe then he'll change his tune a bit. Probably not. You are SO much nicer than me. I would not wish DEATH on anyone Some people here frighten me

The fact that there is a reasonable discussion as to whether this is a hoax on Trump's part shows how fucked up his handling of the pandemic has been.
I don't want the guy to die, but I hope he feels like shit for a bit.
I feel like I'm living in some bizarro world.

I'm thinking this is a specifically timed "hoax" announcement from trump. He has politicized any and every thing that he could since before he was elected. I can totally see him using having the COVID19 virus to his advantage.
It seems awfully convenient for him to have caught it. Wasn't everyone who was having contact with him being tested BEFORE they were in his presence?
How is this NOT staged and NOT true? trump and how ever many other WH officials who get and who will recover from it - I doubt any will die (they aren't really sick) make a powerful statement so close to the election.
God WANTS trump to live!!! God wants trump to get re-elected. Isn't that what Qanon is all about? How does this NOT fit that narrative?
I find it kind of weird that Melania has it too. She doesn't seem like she'd spend alot of time with trump OR be involved with his day to day dealings. I cringe when I think of the two of them kissing goodnight before getting into their beds at night.

While Boris Johnson is still an idiot I noticed he got a lot more humble about COVID after he was hospitalized for it. Some people just need to learn the hard way. Given how many comorbidities Trump has I would be shocked if he skates though this with a mild case. Melania might, but this is a man who brags about not exercising, endless fast food consumption and has already had several mysterious doctor visits in the last month.

I don't wish Trump would die but I would not shed any tears and be somewhat relieved that I don't have to worry about him being elected again. There are people out there in the world that I do not and will not miss when they are gone. I don't feel sorry for Herman Cain for example. I feel bad for his loved ones because he died thanks to his stupidity and stubborness but I shed no tears for him.
I will admit I hope karma catches up with him and even if it gives him a mild case now that he has to live with long term complications of it. He's a 70+ year old man with shit overall health so he's a prime candidate for complications. You want to brag it's not serious and nobody needs to wear a mask well nature came along to call your bluff.

Bankruptcies, divorces, death of loved ones (or people that should be loved ones). Stuff that would make most people reevaluate their life choices has no emotional effect on him. Is that the definition of a psychopathy? Anyway it's some kind of mental illness. And I would not call him a happy man. He is angry and hateful. To me that would be a living hell. He seems to thrive on it. Again, most of us consider that insanity, like the diagnosed by medical professionals kind of insanity.
