Not if his doctors all go conservative and follow FDA recommendations. He's going to have to do everything via Zoom for 14 days. What I want to know, is how many White House staff , cabinet members, Republican congressmen, and governors has this cluster infected. The Senate could end up without enough votes to confirm Trump's SC nominee. They only have one or two votes to spare.

So far, two Rs on the Judicial Committee have tested positive. Hmm

He will then be able to claim that he is immune and you will be too if you catch it.

Mild symptoms only. Five days. He'll come out of this stronger than before.

Yall just like to let your imaginations run wild when it comes to Trump.

Apparently the Republican Senate is no longer sure they have the votes to approve the new judge. Republican senators are now starting to report infections and have been duly appearing at face mask free meetings, parties, etc. and some are now going into quarantine. I have full confidence that others re 'toughing' it out and hoping its just gonna go away just like their dear leader said.

By the time this is all over they will have proven that just about everything that Trump has said about Covid-19 was, just as the Dems have said, just more damned Trump lies. The first thing that comes to mind that, perhaps, some true believers might change their view but, on reflection, not likely!

You know who is going to change their minds? The 40% in polls who said Trump is better able to handle the pandemic. They might like him for other reasons, but I doubt all but the batshiz-crazy can still give him this point. There are a lot of old folks in that 40% who are scared shirtless about this virus coming for them, and their guy just proved all his pandemic ideas are poop.

That's the problem with living in a fantasy world: Sometimes reality comes along and knocks the crap out of it.

If it did anything it hardened their support and belief Democrats poisoned him.

Jeez, you're right...by the sheer numbers he has officially bamboozled more people than anyone besides Jesus Christ himself.

You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete.
