Doctors And Media Torch Second Evasive Briefing On Trump’s COVID Condition | Talking Points Memo

What I make of his being an OD is that Donnie searched and searched until he found someone he could call “Doctor” who is willing to say anything that the lying Orange Menace dictates.
I think I understand better why he was moved to Walter Reed. Only wanted someone else to take the fall if Donnie snuffed it.

I’m going to assume that Trump has a say in who becomes the WH doctor, and since we know Trump, and have seen/heard him express this himself, he casts someone who looks like a doctor. Never mind the type or quality of the person.

I don’t quite understand. Doesn’t the Secret Service have a right to say “no” to a President if they think what he’s asking for is an untenable risk to his safety? For example, asking to walk in an unsecured public square in a foreign city.

Does this not count because it’s their lives at risk and not his? I just can’t even begin to understand this level of contempt for others, though I certainly should by now, because that’s how Trump and DC Republicans became the biggest Covid manufacturers in the world today.

I never expected to see the term Kremlinology again, but it has come up this weekend because of all the unanswered questions surrounding Trump’s sudden hospitalization.

Unfortunately, the biological attack is coming from inside the limo. I guess the limo designers never figured on a President this stupid and this reckless.

This doctor is the worst liar ever. If Trump had not been on O2 they would have said so. Therefore he was on Oxygen. This just devalues the public’s trust in the medical/scientific community when we really need it. Trump is running the media response and of, course, he is fucking it up.

He’s been working with Kellyanne on the messaging side.

Call me Skeptical (pls- call me) but I now do not believe a g-damn thing coming out of the mouths of anyone: Every physician at Walter Reed is silent (good for them):
The mutha-fruker is JOY riding around for the idiots gathered outside of the facility (mini-rally?). But…he’s Oh-so-sick he gets the bestest care that $750 (+10 zeros behind it) can afford; experimental drugs and the mother-fruker’s administration is siding with a G-DAMN Tex-ass judge to render the ACA unconstitutional.
As someone said on twitter: In the far-far future, his descendants will change the surname (just like Gramps- Dump(f ) did when he came from Germany):

I really dispise this foul, vulgar piece of humanity.

No way Trump is going home any time soon.

Recall that the course of this disease is that people begin to feel better, but can then rapidly deteriorate. They’ll keep him in the hospital until after that period, which may well keep him there another week or more.

So he decided to put more people’s lives at risk. No one will say no to him. Stupid cowards, who wants to give his life for this ass. Rhetorical.

I understand medical personnel cannot provide some of the info media is clamoring for; there is- after-all patient confidentiality issues at work. And…a credible hospital spokesperson would readily state such…
.but this mouth-piece-playing a doctor, just needs to shut the hell up and allow a treating physician to speak and state only what does not breech patient/physician confidentiality.

Interesting. Conley is a DO, not an MD.

When you know everything, you don’t really need a doctor.

Between the drive-by, telegraphing that he “might” be released on Monday, claiming that he’s doing much better, they appear to be going out of their way to convince the public that he’s not that sick. Which to me means that he’s a lot sicker than they’re letting on. Steroids and O2 levels dropping is not good. IANAD and I’m motivated to see this in the worst light, but this doesn’t feel right.

I don’t wish this on anyone, but damn, it’s like he ran 20 red lights and half a dozen train crossing gates doing 150mph in a massive downpour at night, so what did he think was going to happen?
