And unless the relative of the elderly Latinx or black staff member who has served generations of presidents comes forward to disclose it - we'll never know.

It would just undercut his message that “COVID is nothing to be afraid of.”

Seniors and women have abandoned him. He is even losing non-college White men. Americans are exhausted from living in the middle of a three ring circus.

He can pound his chest all he wants.

He definitely got it bad. And COVID is known to get better and then crash hard. He is not out of the woods yet. Even though he has the best medical team behind him. Also, he might be looking at some serious long term issues (lung, blood clots, etc) even if he recovers.

I'm often wrong, but I have a feeling.

He's got enough drugs in him to turn a mule into the winner of the Belmont.

Neither have I. Isn't going to happen. Please, take a deep breath; this too will pass, and tRump's virus symptoms will come. Be patient grasshopper.

The whole leaving the hospital bit was done early because he could still walk. He could pretend the whole thing was over, much like the pandemic for the rest of us. He will attempt to go back to his routine drugged out of what is left of his mind until the symptoms shut him down. Tick tock...

I’ve had 4 people that I know die of this virus. So, I have little sympathy for these people at the White House.
