Given that the POTUS is the most protected person in the planet, I wonder how a covid positive person got that close for that long.

This is from the “10-Point” news summary this morning from The Wall Street Journal:

“The president tweeted the news hours after confirmation that top adviser Hope Hicks, who traveled with him earlier this week, had tested positive.”

The people like advisers and the countless others that the President interacts with on a continuous basis don’t live in bubbles surrounded by protective agents who can prevent their exposure to other people’s diseases. A “top adviser” will have long and frequent contacts with him.

Unless he and the First Lady had taken stringent individual precautions to avoid being infected by all those people they interact with, their catching the disease was probably inevitable, just as it was for many other public figures.

On top of that, what drives me absolutely insane, is people thinking they will never get it. It's a global virus, we will ALL get it eventually. It's just how long you can delay the inevitable.

I hope and pray for a quick recovery.

The Missouri Governor had it and did a regular video address to let people see that he was doing OK and still "in charge". Trump should and probably will be doing video addresses throughout his quarantine period.

The President and First Lady will be fine. Both are in excellent health, his stamina and energy are legendary. And they have the absolute best medical care on Planet Earth. And his campaign will be just fine.

Biden must be freaking out a bit, "...my God, I was 30 feet away from him!"

The Rageaholic view of the debate (Language NSFW or small children):



Chrissy Wallace was so battered, he literally cancelled via email at the LAST minute right before his weekly talk with Marc Cox here in St. Louis area. Apparently Chrissy is not doing any talk shows or call ins this week.

He's not the first world leaders to contract the virus.

I got this line from a British friend's email:

"As a British person looking in, I thought that Biden was a terrible moderator for the " Trump Wallace " debate."

Yet another distraction in the year which will never end.

Actually, this may very well be a blessing in disguise. For instance, note the glee some "celebrities" are displayimg at this news. Everyone can see their hate and pettiness. Also, everyone will see President Trump's condition as he recovers quickly.

As I've said more than a few times over the course of this global fiasco, having now been lied to by the "authorities" repeatedly over an extended period, I've come to the point where I doubt the existence of COVID-19 at all.

Check the date:

In order for that to be correct, there would have to be a conspiracy. Is President Trump bribing his physicians and the lab technicians who provided the results from the sample taken from him, or are these health care workers lying without being compensated?

Such "predictions" have always been and shall remain nothing more than hot air, calculated to make the predictor appear far wiser than mere mortals such as the rest of us.

Pardon the conjecture.

Found it very interesting, considering all that is going on.

Additionally, it reminded me that he is playing chess with the enemy and is many, many moves ahead.

Nothing more than that, sir.

Trump tweets he’s overturning new Navy SEAL gender-neutral ethos; calls it ‘ridiculous’

President Donald Trump on Thursday tweeted that he would reverse a Navy decision that changed the Navy SEAL ethos and Special Warface Combatant-craft Crewman (SWCC) creed to be gender neutral, after American Military News exclusively reported the changes Monday.

Trump tweeted, “I will be overturning this ridiculous order immediately!” linking to a tweet referencing the original American Military News story.

I will be overturning this ridiculous order immediately! https://t.co/sFIX5Y667v

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 1, 2020

The changes to the Navy SEAL Ethos removed terms like “man,” while the SWCC creed was similarly changed, with a reference to the elite Navy boat unit as a “brotherhood” being changed to a “group of maritime warriors.”

Naval Special Warfare spokesman Lt. Cmdr. Matthew Stroup confirmed the changes to the ethos and creed in an emailed statement to American Military News on Monday.

“Naval Special Warfare continues to deliberately develop a culture of tactical and ethical excellence that reflects the nation we represent, and that draws upon the talents of the all-volunteer force who meet the standards of qualification as a SEAL or SWCC,” Stroup said.

Stroup said the changes to the ethos and creed statements were made to comply with changes in law opening the potential for women to join the elite military units.

“The previous versions of the SEAL Ethos and SWCC Creed were written prior to the law allowing women to serve as operators in Naval Special Warfare. The changes do not in any way reflect lowering standards of entry, rather they ensure that all those who meet the requirements to train to become a SEAL or SWCC are represented in the ethos or creed they live out. This improves the posture of the NSW force by ensuring we draw from the greatest pool of talent available.

Stroup confirmed, “To date, no women completed the SEAL or SWCC qualification training pipelines.”

Former Navy SEAL Eddie Gallagher first raised awareness of the changes in an Instagram post, sharing an image purporting to show a leaked memo describing the changes.

Well at least they weren't using the fake, woke pronouns "xe" or "ze" or whatever the hell the non-sense of the day is.

Gee-wizz, I thought you could just substitute "They" and be done. This is so confusing!

Pretty sure the boat and team guys would have just continued to do what they wanted to do in this regard.

Traditions are there for a reason and those reasons are more important than some pussy with rank getting his feelz hurt.

Glad the President stomped on this though.

I recall hearing a prediction that Biden would pull the same thing prior to the election to avoid debates and other campaign dates.

Total tripe...

VP Pence and wife test negative

Ivanka, Jared and Barron test negative

Judge Barrett tests negative

RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel tests positive

Sen Mike Lee (R) tests positive

I’m surprised they haven’t been doing the debates remotely already. None of this crap should stop the debates.

I picture Garrett Morris appearing in the upper left corner picture in a picture, and repeating
President Trump's muted words loud enough for everyone in the world to hear what he has to say.

Makes me giggle.
