For anyone looking for a keepsake to mark this momentous occasion in our nation's history, consider the "Trump Defeats COVID" commemorative coins that are now available for pre-order:
Is this real or some kind of joke?

It's true.

(BTW, this is not an official US Gov thing, just some "entrepreneurs".)

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

I had to take it down to make way for the Bill Clinton painting I picked up cheap from the Jeffrey Epstein liquidation sale.

Still, for me this is a new maximum of Trump cringe-worthiness. A comparison to the personality cult in, say, North Korea doesn't look completely absurd anymore.

If this interests you, there is also a commemorative coin to commemorate Trump's historic summit meeting with North Korea's leader Mr. Kim Jung Un, available from the same gift shop:

Trump’s physician, Dr. Sean Conley, said in a memo shared by White House officials that the president “as a precautionary measure” has “received a single 8 gram dose of Regeneron’s polyclonal antibody cocktail.”
“He completed the infusion without incident,” Conley wrote.
Regeneron’s experimental drug cocktail has yet to be approved for wider use. Results shared by the pharma giant just this week showed that some non-hospitalized Covid-19 patients who took the two-antibody treatment saw reduced viral levels and improved symptoms.
Regeneron confirmed in a statement to CNBC that it provided the dose to the president in response to a “compassionate use” request from Trump’s doctors. That term refers to a way patients can access experimental drugs outside of clinical trials.
Trump has also been taking zinc, vitamin D, melatonin, a daily aspirin and the histamine-blocker famotidine, Conley said in the memo.
“As of this afternoon the President remains fatigued but in good spirits. He’s being evaluated by a team of experts, and together we’ll be making recommendations to the President and First Lady in regards to next best steps,” the physician said.
Conley’s memo added that first lady Melania Trump, who also tested positive for Covid-19, “remains well with only a mild cough and headache.”

My favorite so far is ‘my thoughts and prayers are with the virus’.
But on to more serious topics, how do you think it effects the race?

Already, Trump says he will hold in-person campaign rally in Florida this Saturday:
That would be only 10 days from when Trump first tested positive for COVID-19. He seems very determined to spread it around.

So I guess the media reports that he was infected days before and hiding it were false?

Those media reports were based on very specific information passed on by the Walter Reed team.

Well it’s one or the other. He could still be infectious or he could be ready to debate next week. Which is it?
