    Trump was sicker from Covid than the public was told at the time, report says
    This isn't surprising as he has always wanted to appear invincible. There were rumors that he wanted to wear a Superman shirt under his suit for when he was released from the hospital.

    What do you think? Do you think the American people had a right to know just how sick he really was? Or, do you think this a new spin to garner sympathy relative to his second impeachment?

    He kicked Covid's ass and the media were horrified at the time. They've since gotten over it and are back to business as usual.

    Remember when he lied and said everyone would get the treatment he did for free? Couple hundred thousand died since then.

    Nice having your own private hospital, while your publicly calling it a hoax. How anyone defends that man, or even thinks he’s not a sociopath is shameful.

    Pretty much everyone in Washington DC is a sociopath. It's kind of a requirement to be a politician.

    Exactly, a 74-Year-Old (with a history of morbid obesity) was a prime candidate for a severe case.

    I knew we were not getting the full story when he had his miraculous cure. No one knows for certain what the lasting impacts are of Covid, but we'll know soon enough.

    That’s the one requirement that Trump is actually over qualified for.

    Yes the We The People have a right to know, period.
    I am not sure that he is Not worried about getting found guilty by the Senate.
    Thete are too many Eunachs there so the impeachment managers as good as they are will never reach the 2/3 required to do the right thing.

    One lasting effect of Corvid is that the recipient of the virus will start liking terrorists more than usual and invite them to attempt an insurrection. There may be other long term effects

    Or you can do the exact opposite and enforce strict lock downs and mandates like Los Angeles. I don't defend men, but his position is still closer to the truth than that of the opposition.

    Oh not that tired old canard

    AP FACT CHECK: Biden distorts Trump's words on virus 'hoax'

    BIDEN VIDEO: “Trump in public: ‘Hoax.’ Trump in private: ‘Killer.’”

    BIDEN VIDEO, showing Trump saying at a Feb. 28 campaign rally in South Carolina: “The coronavirus — and this is their new hoax.”

    THE FACTS: The accusation and the selective video editing are misleading. At the rally featured in the video, Trump actually said the phrases “the coronavirus” and “this is their new hoax” at separate points. Although his meaning is difficult to discern, the broader context of his words shows he was railing against Democrats for their denunciations of his administration’s coronavirus response.

    “Now the Democrats are politicizing the coronavirus,” he said. “You know that, right? Coronavirus. They’re politicizing it.” He meandered briefly to the subject of the messy Democratic primary in Iowa, then the Russia investigation before returning to the pandemic. “They tried the impeachment hoax. ... And this is their new hoax.”

    Asked at a news conference the next day to clarify his remarks, Trump made clear he was not referring to the coronavirus itself as a hoax.

    “No, no, no.” he said. ”‘Hoax’ referring to the action that they take to try and pin this on somebody, because we’ve done such a good job. The hoax is on them, not -- I’m not talking about what’s happening here. I’m talking what they’re doing. That’s the hoax.”

    He continued: “Certainly not referring to this. How could anybody refer to this? This is very serious stuff.”

    saying it’s too bad he didn’t die, and that if he did he’d be going to hell, etc etc.

    Lol, sometimes you don’t need to actually say the words for the meaning to be there. I’m not a big fan of Trump myself, but damn, since he lost the election, people just want to destroy him and his supporters. So much for the unity joe was talking about.

    I know that Covid-19 can be very bad. Pneumonia in the lungs is basically fluid buildup in the lungs that gets in the way of oxygen getting into the bloodstream. People have died from Pneumonia.

    But, when I had pneumonia myself, years ago I didn't even notice it.

    Ah... crap! If (G*d forbid) sleepy Joe catches Chinese virus and be sick, will we know just how sick he is? Cos not, he’ll appear to be just fine on TV even if they have to attach strings to his vital parts to move him and make it appear he’s alive!

    Not that they do not do it already :nana:
