Just like they were hoping he'd remain asymptotic. They're going to try to spin this shit show to their advantage. Which doesn't mean it's going to work. But, of course that's their evil plan as of now. Even if they have to "Weekend at Bernie's" Trump via these faux 'super healthy' videos, that's their plan at this moment.

Who ever thought otherwise? There's way better odds Trump walks out of there than he doesn't. The joke is, there's also damn good odds Trump is never fully well again. He's now potentially their tool instead of the other way around.

The power has deeply shifted here. The evil in the GOP (looking at you McConnel) now own Trump's ass, and everyone involved know this. Including Trump and his family.
