Rumor-based, fear-mongering and/or inflammatory statements that damage the quality of the thread will be thumped. Off-topic posts will also be thumped. Repeat offenders may be suspended.
If time spent moderating this thread remains a distraction from moderation of the wiki itself, the thread will need to be locked. We want to avoid that, so please follow the forum rules
when posting here.
In line with the general forum rules, 'gravedancing' is prohibited here. If you're celebrating someone's death or hoping that they die, your post will get thumped. This rule applies regardless of what the person you're discussing has said or done.

I have no idea. I don't even try to understand what Trump's thinking anymore because my sanity is too precious for that nonsense.
Yeah, just having access to the good treatment doesn't mean squat, if you refuse to comply with it. Not to mention that "good treatment" doesn't automatically translate into "getting better", depending on your condition.

He did leave the medical center way earlier than he should have. He should have stayed there for at least a few more days.
It's not too hard to comprehend Trump. He's just a vicious overgrown Spoiled Brat of a bully. We've all known a Trump or two in our lives (assuming we weren't a Trump in the past).

Disgusted, but not surprisedWikipedia notes is that Cain had cancer, but that was over a decade ago and it went into remission. This article
mentions he was perfectly healthy (if high risk due to the cancer history) before catching COVID.

And Trump being Trump might just cause more problems
. Partly just from being incredibly important, because you don't get normal treatment—overtreatment is entirely possible in a case like this.

I think somebody on this thread mentioned that he almost exclusively eats fast food because he thinks it can't be poisoned or something due to the way its made.

Somebody once told me the world was macaroni, I took a bite out of a treeWhich is technically true... assuming you don't, you know, eat or drink anything to replenish said energy. In that case yeah, exercising would just kill you faster. But the good news is we don't run on batteries, we run on fuel.
...Now I'm idly wondering if this means Trump is actually some kind of robot. Probably a sign I should get some sleep.

It should be noted that 46 states allow the tracking of absentee ballots. I think the Republicans aren't aware of this or missed that it's good to make sure that they have gotten where they need to. I checked on mine to make sure it was where it should be.
Also, 4 million ballots have been cast already. A new record with 21 million going out in California.

Whatever Trump's hopped on won't really "enhance" his performance. Rather the opposite, I presume.
