Putting myself in the shoes of a committed leftist - I don't think it does them any good to have Trump die.
You don't defeat his ideas and philosophy by physically defeating the man - they'd need to defeat him at the ballot box for that.
Him dying immortalizes his points-of-view in a certain way.

I'm a liberal, but when I read what some human beings write about other human beings, I lean towards despair.
I wonder, were people always quietly like this, or is it another by-product of the internets?

Committed leftists don’t approach anything rationally.
As a committed centrist, my preferred outcome for Trump is humiliation at the polls. Second best is a loss. Third best is a natural death. Second to last is victory at the polls. Last is assassination.

Nothin, I just decided to start counting from the other side. Those can be thought of as numbered 1-5.

Image if you’re in bed with fever and chills and they tell you to get up and put a suit and tie on. Seriously fuck that.

I was thinking the same thing. However, it would have looked a lot worse if he didn't appear "presidential." Can you imagine him in "POTUS Jammies?"
Probably worse than not being seen at all, but...
Perception is reality, right?

By the way, he is getting a Regeneron polyclonal antibody cocktail. Regeneron is headquartered about 4mi from my house. The founder’s son just lost the primary to replace my Congress critter, and the chair of the house appropriations committee, Nita Lowy. I voted for him.

I don’t want to be too snarky but I seriously doubt that any HCQ is in consideration.
But maybe I’m wrong.

Just saw Trump Jr. on Tucker. He said his dad was tired, but he had been working the phones with the Senate. All day.
He also said he and Jared had tested negative today.

I suspect he'd have access to this therapy as well.
Nah.
He'd never consent to that. He's an anti-Semite, dontcha know?

In other news, Trump signed an emergency declaration for New York this afternoon...

Clearly, the next debate should be held via Zoom, with both candidates and moderator forced to use a crappy laptop and bluetooth headphones whose batteries run out at the most inconvenient point.
They could further enliven the debates by allowing them to choose amusing backdrops of their choice.

Other advantages:
- Moderator (or anyone else) can hit the "mute" button.
- You can criticize the candidate for not wearing a mask.

I saw that this morning and heard that is was experimental and not even approve yet by the FDA. I am surprised that they would give an "experimental" treatment to the President.
But, I am sure that they looked that the possible down parts also and figured that it was almost nothing.
