[Comshaw]

Has he? And if not why not?

He can't play golf.

The only balls he plays with are his own, when his wife lets him.

 

[Biggs_Darklighter]

What difference does it make?

Pence has been in training for years, binge-watching cable news, attending campaign rallies, and moving his water bottle off the table.

The latest anyone is admitting to publicly is that Trump will continue "working" from Walter Reed and has not handed the reins to Pence.

Mind you, if this White House told me it was raining I'd get out my sunglasses. But that's what they're saying.

Is Trump tweeting? (I don't tweet, so I don't know.) If not, he's not able to function and Pence should take over (assuming Pence doesn't have Covid to an incapacitating degree himself and we're just not being told).

 

[Jada59]

At this point, Trump still seems functional. He said he will still carry on from the hospital.

i think they're gonna have to pry those reins from outta his cold, dead hands

sorry, but there's no point in getting ahead of ourselves; unless he's passed out/in a coma/undergoing anaesthesia/on a ventilator or delerious from the fever/gasping for breath, he's never going to give up control.

and unless he is totally incapacitated, there's no precedence that he should.

Last I heard, he isn't. That's one clue that he really is sick, something a lot of us were suspicious about at first. Now we know he really is sick, the question is how sick?

Biden is pulling negative ads? Schmuck!

When they go low we go high and lose elections.

Keep a knee on their necks! If you think the supreme court is bad now, wait till you kumbayas lose the November elections. Remember when you all fucked up in 2010? We're still paying for that.

 

[StrictMiss]

He doesn't have enough family members to put on our payroll.

Plus, he can't stop crying. He's a mess.

 

[StrictMiss]

Yes. He's off to kill another quarter of a million Americans.

The Great White Dope II, coming to your local crowded theater this weekend.

"If the president suddenly becomes incapacitated and is unable to carry out his duties, Pence and the cabinet can send a letter to the Speaker of the House declaring Trump is “unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office,” and Pence would then assume the role of acting president."


Trump would NEVER voluntarily cede power to someone else, ever, no matter the circumstance. So watch for the above. To me the lack of tweets are a pretty good indication of his health.

I only know that I NEVER make important decisions when I have fever... I don't even answer the telephone!

Hell, I can be talked into buying or doing almost anything when I have a even a medium fever and whatever.

(That how I got into so much trouble with Timeshares... I was in the ER most of the next morning!)

The President is fine and able to discharge his duties. Your circle jerk will have to wait.

He's at Walter Reed and is being administered a therapy that isn't yet approved for human consumption.

Your definition of "fine" is idiotic.

I just heard his medical team state otherwise, clown. They didn't say a thing about the details of his treatment.

I just heard his medical team state otherwise, clown. They didn't say a thing about the details of his treatment.

I heard the same press conference, and they gave details about his standard of care.

They also said that they're on watch for the "inflammatory phase", the cytokine storm that creates inflammation in the lungs and other major organs. That's why they were very specific in saying that those organs are clear "right now". Cytokine storm is the bit that kills the patient if its bad enough.

Pay attention next time, clown.

I did Bozo. Their message was the President is doing fine, notwithstanding your hopes for his demise.

The message is the the President is fine "right now", but that the inflammation period that is often is the cause of greatest concern is coming up.

Educate yourself about a disease that's taken the lives of 208,000+ of your fellow Americans. This isn't the time for your addled mind to be parked on auto-pilot.

Well, if Pence does take over at any time in the next several weeks, it will help elevate the influence of Barrett's People of Praise cult, which would at least be a bit of a diversion from the Trump family cult.

See, I'm looking for silver linings.

 

[Bray123]

Pence was interviewed on Fox and asked today if he had been put on standby to act as President.

He replied, “I don’t recall being told to be on stand by."

He might have been, but he can't remember. And Trumptards make out that Joe has dementia. SMH.
