I've also heard that he actually didn't test positive, but it was one of his aids and they are just taking precautions. No idea how true it is.

Trump's tweet said he and his wife tested positive.

All of the news outlets are saying both tested positive.

This is going to give the Dems some wicked ammunition.

I don't know. If he shrugs it off with little to no symptoms, it will just make him look stronger, and more sympathetic. Plus, he'll be able to claim his Orange Medicine Bad works.  =)

I'm talking about now. The next couple of days. If he shrugs it off yes, he'll come out OK. But the next few days are going to be rocky in the ability to get ahead of this politically.

I'll put myself on the line and say that like 99.95% of everyone that likely (given the large untested population) gets the virus, they will fully recover. If they do so asymptotically, perhaps it will finally reduce the overreaction and panic that have been happening since March.

It is disgustingly unsurprising to see the large outpouring of hate and hope for death. That should circle the wagons of the base. Perhaps it will even sway some undecided voters. Perhaps it will get some flyover democrats to raise an eyebrow.

I will likely put some cash into the stock market.

They are looking at doing the next debate on Zoom. Given the moderator, this will be very bad for Trump.

If Trump does become symptomatic to the point of not being able to hide it, Harris will likely win the election.

That's unfortunate.

It will be interesting to see how the hoaxers will fold this into their conspiracy theories.
In the moral, catatonic stupor America finds itself in today it is only disagreement we seek, and the more virulent that disagreement, the better.

This just in from my local conspiracy correspondent: Trump's going to take the vaccine, and be instantly "cured" from the disease he supposedly has. Cause this whole thing was invented by vax companies to sell us vax, man.

It's a respiratory virus.

Eventually most of the population is going to be exposed to it or one of its mutations.

For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

Saw that, of course.  I'm probably going to have to put some BookFace friends on mute for a while, to reduce the bile I see.

I wonder if this will turn into an excuse to delay the election.

Quote
Vice President Mike Pence and second lady Karen Pence tested negative for COVID-19, his spokesman said Friday morning.

“As has been routine for months, Vice President Pence is tested for COVID-19 every day,” Devin O’Malley, the vice president’s press secretary, said in a tweet. “This morning, Vice President Pence and the Second Lady tested negative for COVID-19. Vice President Pence remains in good health and wishes the Trumps well in their recovery.”
