Down but Never Out
Just hours ago the President was discharged from Walter Reed National Military Medical Center and returned to the White House. He looked defiant and ready to return to the campaign trail and the business of being President. Many in the media thought he would never make it back. Once again they were wrong.
Before leaving he tweeted: "I will be leaving the great Walter Reed Medical Center today at 6:30 P.M. Feeling really good! Don’t be afraid of Covid. Don’t let it dominate your life. We have developed, under the Trump Administration, some really great drugs & knowledge. I feel better than I did 20 years ago!"
From what we have been told by Trump's doctors, the president is currently taking the antiviral medication remdesivir, the steroid dexamethasone and an experimental antibody cocktail made by Regeneron. It has been 72 hours since his last fever. Anyone who has been wishing the President ill needs to look into their own soul, for it is they who are sick. For the rest of us we were happy to see the President walk out of the hospital.
The President will continue to receive his treatment at the White House.
In the meantime all eyes will be on his point man & VP Mike Pence on Wednesday night.

Question: After having this highly contagious disease are you then immune?
Couple of factors here.
1. If the body holds on to antibodies then yes to this specific strain.
2. If the strain mutates, it might compromise immunity.
COVID is an RNA virus, like the mumps, and rabies. They have a vaccine for these and the viruses didn't mutate enough to render the vaccine useless, so I am hopeful.
As am I
You thought Trump won the debate and it turned out Biden went up 6 pts in the next poll after the debate. You think Trump looks like he a hero now but he will go down more points because the people see him being a jerk. He took his mask off as soon as he got to White House. He's contagious.
We are witnessing the death knell of his political 'career'.
Where is the quote?
We are witnessing the death knell of his political 'career'.
If we are it isn't for any of the things you complain about. It will be because of what China unleashed.
If Joe wins, tell him not to upset the PRC or some Chinese Colonel somewhere might just "accidently" release a new deadly pathogen!
Question: You know that Trump is STILL infected with a highly contagious disease right?
Many people are. Are you upset that he survived?
And MANY MORE will because of Trump's actions and words.
Why are you using the past tense Vic? Trump is STILL infected and is at this moment sheading a deadly infectious disease in the WH and endangering every fucking person that works there because he's an narcissistic asshole.
Is this the new spin? Who started it? Mother Jones? Now all of you have to call him the "super spreader". Let's start the conference calls!
Why are you using the past tense Vic?
He beat it (not out of the woods yet), but he walked out of that hospital and the haters went nuts!
Isn't it amazing? We've been saddled with this curse since March and they still know so little.
There have been some stories about people being re-infected but it's not clear from what I have seen if they were truly re-infected or if it is a false positive test result or a continuation of the initial infection.
I haven't heard of any.
It may be years before we know everything about this virus.
Not even Dr Fauci?/S
According to the eminent, world-renowned physician Mark Meadows, Trump died Friday. Three days later he is risen.
We are witnessing the second coming of Trump.
That's funny! Poor Mark
Nerm, you are kidding, right?

sea tire
Even 1 out of 3 Republicans and Trump supporters don't trust him anymore. LOL.
Who are the three White House reporters who tested positive?
How are they doing?
When were they diagnosed?
What was their testing protocol?
Do we know how they got it and who they may have transmitted it to?
Why do you keep asking John that question Vic?
Everyone knows that the WH tests EVERY reporter that enters the WH or in the pool that travels with Trump.
Every reporter I have seen is wearing a mask. Not so much for the entire Trump Administration.
Why the curiosity about the IDENTITY of the reporters?
He spent most of the week chronicling people in the administration who contracted it, I was wondering if he knew those vile reporters in the press corps also had it.
Every reporter I have seen is wearing a mask.
Then why did three of them get it?
Why the curiosity about the IDENTITY of the reporters?
I asked a bit more than that. You & JR want everything from the President, but it comes to the radical liars in the media, you go silent. I only have one question for you and that's the one I posted first.
Hard to say since the White House is now doing NO contact tracing. Appalling.
The large font is for your benefit.
How is Trump going to win the election when only 12% of the public thinks he is telling the truth about covid? Give up.
Show us
If that's true, John, Biden will win and the dems won't have to cheat!
White House Is Not Contact Tracing ‘Super-Spreader’ Rose Garden Event
Why don't we hold it down to a roar
So we don't know if some infected liberal caused it all?
Got it
So you weren't replying to his comment here in this seed. Why not go to wherever he allegedly made those comments and address them THERE?
For the same reason health care workers get it Vic. Being exposed to people who are sheading the virus, day in and day out is dangerous. It seems that some people will just never get that...
The President is a public servant Vic. I've said here more than once, they could be as mum as they want about Trump's condition. Yet when the DO tell us information, it should be factual. PERIOD full stop.
WE don't employ journalists. It's no more our business about their medical status than it is for the essential worker bees at the WH who have tested positive.
BTW, what if one or more of those 'radical liars in the media' is from Fox or Breitbart or OAN?
Again, WHY are you using the past tense?
White House rebuffed CDC offer to lead contact tracing investigation of Trump outbreak
Why is it that only one person here responded to my key question in post 1 ?
For the same reason health care workers get it Vic.
Right! And that goes for the administration as well.
The President is a public servant Vic.
He hasn't given up the rights everyone else has. Under HIPAA :.45 CFR §164.508 stipulates that all uses and disclosures of protected health information (PHI) require an authorization to be obtained from a patient before information prior to any disclosure. A patient can be selective in PHI disclosures. The conduct of that hate filled press corps has been outrageous!
WE don't employ journalists.
WE do depend on them for truthful reporting and they have failed miserably.
BTW, what if one or more of those 'radical liars in the media' is from Fox or Breitbart or OAN?
Actually they were right on most of the stories regarding this President. Who told us he was a Russian agent 24/7 for 3 years?
Again, WHY are you using the past tense?
Don't like the question?
Don't like to see the President recover?
Don't like the idea he might be immune from the China virus?
We won't know shit, Vic.
We know one thing, right Pat?
The Trump outbreak!
That's funny...I love it!
I thought it was great, happy that you love it.
of course, the point of the article is that the WH refused CDC help with contact tracing.
I suppose that they don't need the CDC because they have done such a great job to date.../s
They have certainly done better than the CDC.
"In this piece, the WSJ reported on three distinct failures made by the agency (helped by the FDA).
“CDC officials botched an initial test kit developed in an agency lab, retracting many tests. They resisted calls from state officials and medical providers to broaden testing, and health officials failed to coordinate with outside companies to ensure needed test-kit supplies, such as nasal swabs and chemical reagents, would be available, according to suppliers and health officials…
“This was kind of a perfect storm of three separate failures,” said Tom Frieden, who directed the CDC from 2009 to 2017, citing the botched test, overstrict FDA rules and sidelined private labs.”
By now, every major newspaper has reported on the incredible failure of the CDC during this crisis. Here is the tidbit from the Washington Post :
“The most consequential failure involved a breakdown in efforts to develop a diagnostic test that could be mass produced and distributed across the United States, enabling agencies to map early outbreaks of the disease, and impose quarantine measures to contain them.”
And as if this weren’t enough failure for one agency, the CDC continues to give the public bad advice and get in the way of our ability to protect ourselves with masks and other needed medical supplies.
Messing up is not a new thing for the CDC . However, unlike what its employees and political allies like to claim, the agency’s poor record and its lack of preparedness has nothing to do with a lack of funding. From 2004 to 2018, total CDC spending grew by over 30 percent, from $8.3 billion to $11.1 billion. Unfortunately, the vast majority of this growth in spending—shock!—did not go to pandemic prevention and protection from COVID-19.
For instance, funding for its National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases—which aims to prevent diseases like Ebola—received only $514 million in 2018, a tiny sliver (less than 5%) of total CDC funding. And less than half of that $514 million went to emerging diseases like COVID-19. The rest of that budget is spent on stuff like chronic fatigue.
Meanwhile, funding for the CDC’s chronic-disease programs—which aim to prevent smoking, alcohol consumption, and poor diets—received nearly $1 billion over that same time, almost double the funding for infectious-disease prevention. As Michelle Minton at the Competitive Enterprise Institute notes in a must-read piece , more money goes to efforts like “environmental health ($180 million), injury prevention ($270 million), and occupational safety ($330 million).” All these projects are also funded by other agencies.
And, of course, let’s not forget the large amount of time the CDC (along with its companion in failure, the FDA) spends on alarming everyone about youth vaping. It is not an epidemic, it’s not contagious but it’s certainly got plenty of attention from the CDC, and the FDA . Isn’t it obvious now that these busybody government bureaucrats should have focused their efforts instead on fighting and preventing actual, real-world epidemics—you know, of the contagious type.
Being a policy analyst following the action of various government agencies and trying to hold them accountable feels like being a broken record. An emergency happens, we write about the incompetence of various government agencies in their response, and then nothing changes. And indeed, many of us wrote about the CDC’s failures during the last Ebola outbreak and the many others before that. But here we are again.
This time, however, these government failures have resulted in millions of Americans being all stuck in their homes, schools being closed, the economy in a recession, and 18,000 people having died so far."

Trump couldn't get out of WR fast enough.... No tanning beds.
Biden was well and he struggled to get out of his basement. Trump beat the virus!
Biden just did a Townhall that made Trump's look like a joke.
First of all, Trump just had a couple hundred thousand dollars worth of medical treatment Vic. It's not like he arm wrestled the virus.
Secondly, you better knock on wood. The moron won't behave and based on his removing his mask and walking into the WH, he intends on continuing to spread Covid 19 to the essential workers who work for US.
What are you talking about Vic? He just did a townhall and seemed very much out of the basement.
I think a lot more people would beat the virus if they got the kind of care that Trump got, no?
Did you see the video of Trump posing outside the White House tonight? He looked like he could hardly breath. He was gasping for breathe like a fish out of water. Trump hasn't beaten anything.
That's your opinion.
First of all, Trump just had a couple hundred thousand dollars worth of medical treatment Vic. It's not like he arm wrestled the virus.
He beat it!
He just did......But before Labor Day he never came out of that basement.
LOL
I bet that everyone President Super Spreader (S.S.) infected is laughing out loud, too. We know what his security detail thinks.
Yup that's the word. They'll all repeat it like trained pigs on CNN, MSNBC, The Times, The Post, ABC, NBC and CBS.
Don't liberals ever do anything without a grand plan?
Yes, just as your comment was YOUR opinion. That's how this shit works Vic.
You keep chanting that Vic, someday it may be true.
Don't Trump and his trained rat sycophants ever do anything that isn't part of Putin's plan?
And you hate hearing that! You see, I've learned that I can do that.
They got caught on that....the media and the FBI!
everyone plays the waiting game....
It's called group think and it's ingrained in the young by leftist teachers.
Haven't you heard? He infected everyone who has it! Yup he did it!
Yes Vic, the HORROR. All of those 'trained pigs' using a technical epidemiological term.
What's the term conservatives use?
It beats the conservative plan of waiting to see on which chicken bone the last drop of Trump's piss lands.
actually, "no child left behind" is our fault.
without that law?
those leftists teachers would have been left behind in grade school
You know you can't actually make me HEAR anything right Vic?
cnn is the democrat's mouthpiece.
They are trained pigs. Didn't I do an article of progressive newspeak? Remember? White Privilege, transgender and systemic racism!
What's the term conservatives use?
The words in common usage.
It beats the conservative plan of waiting to see on which chicken bone the last drop of Trump's piss lands.
I can tell ....you're enraged
There are other people reading this besides you.
Yet it seems that not even one of those leftist teacher could get the concept of capitalization across to everyone.
Thanks for the revelation. /s
Anytime. /s
Vic, the last image the American people now have of Trump is of him entering the White House without a mask on even though he is contagious and can spread the disease.
How do you think he can win the election when he behaves like that? Does he have a political death wish?
I told you weeks ago to read "The Road to Unfreedom" by Timothy Snyder. You had a flippant response. There are several well researched, well written articles and books on the subject. I have read several of them. If you don't know by now what Putin is all about, and what Putin's plans are, then you are allowing yourself to remain badly uninformed. Why don't you try to study the subject and avoid the typical flippant response.
In fact, your total disregard for this very serious topic is the reason I wrote you off at that time. Take it for what you will.
This is not taunting, not bullying and not a personal insult. I am attempting to engage on a very serious subject right now. Can you do that?
Why Tex?
If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?
The video i saw of him getting out of the helicopter and walking into the white house, he had a mask on. He took it off on the balcony when he saluted the marines in marine one.
Technically trained pigs.
Yes I distinctly remember that ridiculously hilarious seed Vic.
Oh, like super spreader?
I have to thank you for that much needed belly laugh Vic. You really are funny when you try to be.
I take my mask off when I get home...Don't you?
I dont have maids and gofers and body servants.
I'm not contagious with covid either.
A pig is a pig.
Yes I distinctly remember that ridiculously hilarious seed Vic.
And you were a big part of it!
Oh, like super spreader?
No, like our President.
I have to thank you for that much needed belly laugh Vic.
Doesn't that feel better?
.
I have a feeling it was only him and Melania.
I'm not contagious with covid either.
I don't know about you John, but the President is about to be done with it AND he will likely be immune from it. I don't think either of us can say that.
What do you have against pigs?
Yes, I was one of the members that proved just how ridiculously hilarious your seed really was.
So the term conservatives use for super spreader is 'our President'. Got ya.
Yes, I usually have to wait a couple more hours till the wife gets home for a good belly laugh but I'm laughing WITH her...
“I dont have maids and gofers and body servants”
and you know he was in close proximity to others with his mask off, how? Truth is, you don’t.
“I'm not contagious with covid either.”
and you somehow know he is? Again, truth is, you don’t.
why do you claim things you know nothing about?
Actually, you failed miserably, but you did help me prove my point - namely that it was the type of propaganda that Orwell warned us about.
So the term conservatives use for super spreader is 'our President'. Got ya.
Super Spreader refers to Hillary's diaper.
Yes, I usually have to wait a couple more hours till the wife gets home for a good belly laugh but I'm laughing WITH her...
That is always a good sign. It didn't work out that way for Tammy.
I do that on purpose... LOL
it helps me spot the anal retentives online.
works like a charm
Wow, Vic, your 'Orwell' seed was ridiculously hilarious but that comment is running a close second.
We have the winner for school yard taunts ladies and gentlemen!
Don't know Tammy but I already feel sorry for her...
Yet you capitalize 'I' whenever you use it. Very Freudian.
Is the great hope of the republic party that Trump stops gasping for breathe like a beached whale? Are we sick of winning yet?
I had a good teacher!
Don't know Tammy but I already feel sorry for her...
You don't know Tammy Bruce and what happened with her wife?
I'd like to tell that story but unfortunately we have some reading to do and that means good night!
