Forums - Politics Discussion - Trump Tests Positive for Coronavirus

I'm not the biggest fan of the guy - but I've already seen some utterly sickening, evil replies in this thread. Have some decency. You may not agree with his rhetoric or policies, but he's not a dictator - he's an Authoritarian right wing populist. And the 200,000 deaths in the US (of which many of these deaths reportedly had other causes anyway) are not remotely his fault. And furthermore isn't the mask supposed to stop you from giving covid to OTHERS, not from getting it yourself? Soo what does being vaguely opposed to wearing a face diaper have to do with this?

I swear some of the stuff I read related to politics makes me disgusted to be a human. It's the reason I flipped off that category for viewing on this website. 

People like you would throw themselves in front of a machine gun wielding maniac and scream "DON'T ATTACK HIM! HE'S NOT A MASS MURDERER YET SO WE HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR!"



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

While I don't think it's completely ok to wish for Trump's death, I can understand why some react the way they do. Some, at least initially, doubted that he has tested positive at all and that this is just some kind of stunt, which is a bit sad but also a reflection of Trump's presidency. He's told so many lies during his time as president that it's no wonder that people doubt everything he says or does, even if it's something as serious as a Covid-19 infection.

People showing a lack of sympathy also comes as no surprise when you take into consideration just how disrespectful and flat out evil Trump has been during these years. Add his terrible management of the corona crisis, and the numerous tragedies that that has resulted in, to the mix and it's not that hard to understand why some people react the way they do.

This place never disappoint in its disgustingness, how it has fallen. Hope all of you that show no sympathy burn in hell

Thats very nice of you.
Hopeing others burn in hell.
What a good guy you are.

Just out of curiousity did you express sympathy for trump in this thread, before you made this comment?


Also lets be real, what does sympathy for trump matter on VGChartz?
You honestly expect the president to come to this forum, read this thread, and get sad seeing people arnt expressing their sympathy?
Sympathy expressed here wont cure him, or have him get better any quicker.


Also the reason some here are saying they have no sympathy for him, is because he has never expressed such for others that got the same illness.
Hes a super ego, and pathalogical narcasist, thats basically incapable of careing for other people. He only cares about himself and how he's percieved, if he chooses to act decent (which he very often doesnt).

Remember "It is what it is"?
200,000+ dead, and his answear is "Hey I did a fantastic job, atleast it isnt 2million".

Also I havnt wished him any ill will in this thread.
Infact I said it was good that hes getting Remdesivir (something safe and proven to work) and not the hydroxychloroquine, which his followers seem to think is the cure-all (even if proven it doesnt work, and is unsafe).

I just think its odd to come into a thread, the first comments you make are basically "I hope you all burn in hell".

My anger got the best of me OK. Just so tired that it's always about politics. We saw that in the RBG-thread too



Sure would be nice if the average American had access to the kind of health care he is getting...

Does your Trump have any sympathy for over 200.000 victims by this virus?

Id rather go for proportional reputation. It is a far superior system than winner takes all.

One doesn't preclude the other. The electoral college is a shit system regardless of whether it's first past the post or proportional reputation (albeit the latter would at least be a slightly better bad system). Using the popular vote would be better in either case too.

Besides, proportional reputation isn't really a possibility in a presidential election. For the senate, sure. But there's only 1 president, so there can only be one winner.

Yea I'll take popular vote for president and proportional representation for congress



I'm conflicted with myself for not really caring that much about his health.

 So yeah send me to hell god :p

Edit: omg the people at resetera are again going in a very extreme direction on this news.

So this piece of shit knew he was infected and was doing meetups to get campaign funds? Family didnt want a mask on debate, he is such a fucking disgusting pig...


I just read this bit of news too.



"WEDS mid-day Trump tests positive

WEDS afternoon Attends fundraiser + rally in MN

THURS Goes to NJ golf club, meets with 18 donors in indoor roundtable without masks.
WH sources later say he appears tired.

FRI 1am: News breaks that Trump tests positive"

"Dr. Conley indicated Trump received monoclonal antibody treatment Thurs morning, indicating he may have met with donors while being treated. What's more, per @drsanjaygupta, drs must have applied for compassionate use for monoclonal treatment hours earlier." - Derek Thompson  (writer for the atlantic, news papir)



Trump KNEW he had covid19, and still went to meet with people at a fundraiser, and a rally.
He went golfing, and again met with 18 more donors (indoors, without masks)

He just gives zero fu**s if he infects or kills others with it.

Stuff like this is why its hard to give him any sympathy, now that he tested positive for Covid19.

Well that is really fucked up if true. Ill wait a bit more to get confirmation, but thats just not ok.

This timeline... is not adding up.

On average, symptoms develop 4-5 days from exposure, and start out mild. Trump is hospitalized within 24 hours, which doesn't seem like a decision that would be made lightly.

If Trump was tested every day, then the most likely scenario is that he first contracted it on Wednesday. Tuesday seems the earliest. The tests could have been false negatives, or maybe the viral load wasn't enough for a positive test till Thursday night. Maybe he just wasn't actually testing all that often.

Even if we assume Tuesday was the exposure date, within 3 days he was in the hospital receiving an experimental treatment.

Either he didn't get it when he says he did (which means he was even more careless than we were led to believe), or this case is progressing way faster than usual. Which... would not be a good sign.

I think this is far worse than we're being led to believe.

You called it JWeinCom.

We found out he was confirmed infect on Wednesday (30th of september).
Trump waited 3 days before telling the world, he had corona.

He went around (without a mask on) and met with Donors/rally people, even when he knew he had the virus.
Days before him confirming it, and heading off for the hospital.

He might have knowingly infected others (and just not cared about it)
