No one should believe it. This is from a picture taken yesterday on the balcony. He was on an IV drip of some kind before the newest covid spreading event on the WH lawn.

This taken by the BBC:

Notice the bandaids. Not just one but two. Here’s the article I saw related to the picture:

He says he’s off all meds. Bullshit. Me thinks he’s still on the steroids. Its generally a 10 day course of treatment and it definitely hasn’t been 10 days since he first began being prescribed those drugs. The stronger steroids are also given through an IV.

He is DO. Which means already a certified quack.

no longer considered a transmission risk to others

That’s nice.

I imagine he’ll want to give his son and wives and kids a big kiss.

That “subgenomic mRNA” thing sounded odd to me. Per NY Times reporting:

The subgenomic mRNA mentioned by Dr. Conley is a part of the virus that can be detected by laboratory techniques, and that suggests the presence of actively replicating virus, said Susan Butler-Wu, a clinical microbiologist at the University of Southern California. But “there are zero cleared tests that look at subgenomic mRNA” from the coronavirus, she added, which means the procedure is “experimental at this point.”

Honestly, if people are stupid enough to go to his Nazi rallies, then … they deserve whatever they get. I feel for the medical people who will have to treat the idiots, the WH staff, of course, and any Secret Service agents who haven’t already contracted it (probably very few at this point). Kvetching about his amoralism at this point is truly a joke.

And we’ve seen what happens when have gotten a test, are waiting for the results, and go out in public.

In his memo released Saturday, Conley wrote that Trump meets CDC criteria “for the safe discontinuation of isolation,” citing a COVID PCR sample that morning,

So TGrump (I kinda like this typo) got super fast results from his PCR test while the rest of country waits, a day, many days, or even is it still up to a week?

Typical, cant trust a soul who is involved with Trump. Everything he touches is corrupted, rotted, poisoned.

I don’t think our framers of the Constitution, nor previous lawmakers could have conceived of someone like Trump. Someone who is willing to break every social norm, and has no concept of honor.

Every traditional American value, starting with honor. Exactly right.

Yeah. So in addition to his constant misleading he’s cutting that corner here. Whatever board that handles certifications should be taking a good long look at this.

No one can say he is no longer contagious. If you read info on less lethal virus and how long they can be transmitted some of the CDC info on their blog say people can transmit a virus up to 28 days. Considering COVID is categorized to be more lethal why would that not apply. Considering COVID is showing to install long term health problem with people who have survived why would that not apply. (https://www.alternet.org/2020/09/here-are-8-reasons-covid-is-so-much-worse-than-the-skeptics-think/)
Plus Dr has cherry picked the information he is releasing to the public because he’s a military Dr and must follow tRumps orders who could care less about putting other people at risk. (https://www.rawstory.com/2020/10/trump-doctor-busted-on-cnn-for-cherry-picking-info-to-get-president-back-out-on-the-campaign-trail/)

Personally, I could care less abut tRump putting himself at risk but there are other people involved here and they do deserve some consideration. Well. maybe not the ones who have given their soul to the Con. They are on their own.

I do think Dr. Conley should have his license revoked when the con is gone.

Perhaps if he lived closer to the days of the framers he’d have challenged Joe Biden to a duel with pistols… of course with his penchant for cheating, there would be snipers to cover up for the shot he would undoubtedly miss.

Out of an abundance of caution, maybe overly cautious, one can never be too sure.

George Mason anticipated Trump. He wrote the EC provision to “protect the Republic from the pretense of populism”. Then, ironically, the EC left us with this monstrous “pretense”.

What are the odds that Petty PompousAss releases her emails? Or that they would have any info in them that we were told were in them?

According to the tapes released by ex-bff Stephanie Wolkoff, Malaria does appear to be somewhat sensitive to criticism. Perhaps that’s why?

(More likely that now she’s got it, they’re keeping her hairdresser, hail tech, makeup artist, etc away from her and she won’t come out without her war paint")

Remdesivir is a ten-day course administered intravenously when hospitalized, which was on reason that it was felt Trump would have been better off staying at WR. But he’s got a hospital at home, just like all Americans do now, right? So why not head back to the WH.

Remdesivir is also sometimes given intravenously first and then followed up with an oral course, and that’s possible. His hand could simply be bruised from having an IV in it for several days, ready for whatever they needed to shoot him up with while he was hospitalized. The bandaids in the photo may simply be to cover the bruising, which can be pretty ugly and lasting.
