Did this really happen or have I fallen down the rabbit hole?

He an idiot.

Your post made me laugh Maw!

Stupid man - my compassion is stretched to the limit. I do not want anyone to get this virus; but Turdman Plod's infection is pushing the boundaries of my principles. The fact that he is milking it for all it's worth is utterly sickening. Many people have died because of his stupidity.

I hear what you say suziewoozie - it beggars belief that he even got voted in; but that people are still willing to vote for him...........what can I say?

I wondered what his doctors really thought about him as a person, as the POTUS and as a patient. Now we know that at least one was able to speak up and use the term 'stunt' about his motorcade. There is talk of his return - maybe as soon as today - to the White House which would doubtless involve the exposure to infection of many staff. His behaviour is typical of what the Greeks called 'hubris' - overweening belief in his own invulnerability. In their dramas, the protagonist was brought down by the gods. I wish....

suziewoozie, I often feel, lately, that we must be in an alternative reality, some twisted comedy show!

A remake of The Truman Sow ?

No problem Lucca I am trying to do multiple tasks, and failing dreadfully this morning ??

LauraNorder Mon 05-Oct-20 09:30:53

No cure for stoopid

Lucca Mon 05-Oct-20 09:23:51

Crossed post sorry

Lucca Mon 05-Oct-20 09:23:34

Should not quarantine ?

GrannyGravy13 Mon 05-Oct-20 09:20:34

Flipping errors * should quarantine

and no idea where the one came from.

(I am losing my ability to multitask ?)

NanKate Mon 05-Oct-20 09:20:05

I just can’t understand why so many voters are sucked in by his boasting and showboating. What a dangerous man he is.

GrannyGravy13 Mon 05-Oct-20 09:19:02

Lucca I saw a tweet from one a doctor at POTUS medical centre, who condemned the drive past stunt.

Pointing out that the security team should not quarantine for a minimum of 14 days and also that due to the cocktail of drugs POTUS is receiving he should be in quarantine for twenty days.

Lucca Mon 05-Oct-20 09:08:53

Well it appears at least one doctor in that hospital has had the courage to speak up and condemn this drive by as a dangerous stunt.

Iam64 Mon 05-Oct-20 08:50:01

I feel we could have that theme music from the first Jaws movie playing in the background. Along with the "just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water" punch line.
The man is dangerous on so many levels.

I was always convinced that Johnson had covid and was very ill as a result. With Trump, I'm willing to believe he has the virus and also, willing to believe this is a publicity stunt.

If he does have the virus, how dare he put the security services at risk by this attention seeking drive around. Beyond belief again.

“He aint outa the woods yet” as they say. Covid is not to be trifled with. But what do we know? One medical report says one thing and others say another. Whatever he is an extremely foolish man and ignorant as has been demonstrated in the past over Covid. I don’t rate him or Biden tbh.

suziewoozie Mon 05-Oct-20 08:44:42

Imagine how he’s going to play it now- only a man who has had it should be your next president, Biden avoided getting it because he didn’t want to understand all about it, only I can save you, God spared me so I could continue with his work .......

suziewoozie Mon 05-Oct-20 08:37:58

Well I’m perilously close to wishing that because as long as he’s President thousands of others will die

Whitewavemark2 Mon 05-Oct-20 08:18:33

Mind you on the optimistic side he’s trailing in the polls by 14 points.

Whitewavemark2 Mon 05-Oct-20 08:17:24

He announced that he knows everything there is to know about covid and he’ll be talking about it when he gets back.

I don’t think I can bear it.

Oopsminty Mon 05-Oct-20 08:10:21

I'm not wishing him dead. I'm not glad he's caught the virus.

But I'm saying his behaviour has been lamentable

suziewoozie Mon 05-Oct-20 08:09:24

Oh he’s sick all right but it’s nothing to do with CoVID

EllanVannin Mon 05-Oct-20 08:06:40

I think this man is more sick than anyone's letting on.

suziewoozie Mon 05-Oct-20 08:05:23

The people in the hermetically sealed car with him - even though they wearing PPE ?Let’s just say it - the world wound be s better place without this truly evil man.

Oopsminty Mon 05-Oct-20 08:04:57

Oh that made me chortle, MawB2

And yes of course. He will make the best recovery ever. Better than anyone ever did.

There's stupid, and then there's Trump Stupid. He's the best at that .

I did wonder if this might boost his ratings but it appears his American fans are maybe/possibly seeing the light.

Dorsetcupcake61 Mon 05-Oct-20 08:03:37

I detest the man but wouldnt have wished severe illness on anyone. His actions defy belief but that's standard for him. What of course is terrifying are the implications of his behaviour. He has denied the severity of the virus and ridiculed those who follow the rules. If he can now boast about his incredible recovery it doesn't bear thinking about.
