I don't think he should have left the hospital, for his own sake. I hope he gets the care he needs, but I hope that as he does the truth comes out. It's important for the country.



The truth about WHAT should come out?

What do you need?  Oxygen levels 24/7?  Exact time and results of COVID tests?  Mask on/mask off data?

The truth about:
1) When was Trump's last negative test?

It was the one before the first positive

2) How far did his blood oxygen drop and what are the implications of that?

Pick a number and go with he implications based on the science.  .  I would assume it went below 90 but not for to long. Exact number isnt really important - there are actually privacy issues here as well.  Treatment was at he ready - as it is now.

3) Given the gasping we saw from him at the White House when he returned, what is his physical condition?

I think that is being answered. Its obvious he is back at work - and a lot sooner than a lesser man in his office would be (I am not talking about 44).  I think Trump looked quite strong in his message yesterday to America - and to the world.  And that's VERY important.

4) Is Trump still contagious?

Yes

I think that would be enough with regard to this visit and his COVID-positive status.

I still want the rest of the truth about his Walter Reed visit almost a year ago, now. And I want to know if he has been evaluated for frontotemporal dementia.

I would say YES - daily.

Thank you for asking.

You are welcome

"Facing illnesses, facing deaths, facing also the higher rates of unemployment and loss of income in our communities has also, unfortunately, played a role in the levels of violence we've seen throughout the year," Katya Nuques, executive director of a community organization in the predominantly Latino Little Village neighborhood, said during a press conference Wednesday.

"The pandemic really has highlighted the vulnerabilities our communities already faced."

A poster with photos are attached to a fence in the South Austin neighborhood of Chicago on Sunday, July 5, 2020, during a vigil for 7-year-old Natalie Wallace, who was shot and killed as her family gathered to celebrate the Fourth of July.
Thousands of Chicagoans have lost their jobs amid the pandemic, which has disproportionately affected people of color in the city. There have been more than 75,000 cases of COVID-19 in Chicago, and nearly 3,000 people have died, with three in four deaths among people who are Black or Latinx, according to city data Tuesday.

Demeatreas Whatley, a violence interrupter with the organization Cure Violence in the South Side neighborhood of Grand Crossing, which has historically seen high rates of shootings, said that his community feels "on edge" this year.

He said that because bars and lounges are closing earlier than usual due to COVID regulations, people are congregating on blocks late at night, making them easier targets for retaliatory shootings, where bystanders have been caught in the crossfire.

"People are not trying to go in the house; they congregate on these blocks," Whatley said. "The way it is now, these guys, if they get word that three of their guys are getting tooled with on a particular block, they don’t care – they'll shoot the whole block up."

Covid,  mass layoffs,  people congregating more on streets as bars,  clubs,  close earlier.

Based on recent nonresponses from Kid,  I suspect I'm on ignore.   So I doubt he'll see the above.   

[LarryBnDC]

When Dr. Conely talks about influencing the course of illness with his comments, he is making it clear that he is actively attempting to treat trump’s mental illness through his comments to the press. Whether the treatments to keep trump breathing have further exasperated the underlying mental problems is one of those subjects that will likely set the patient off.

Yes.

See the link I just posted - I don't think that this kind of massaging the story is going to help if Trump really has the kind of brain issues they are discussing in it and I sincerely hope he doesn't. But the notion that Conley might be trying to massage the news for the sake of his patient's mental health is no longer an alien one. (But I still think they ought not to have lied to us. Just tell us nothing, then.)

This Administration has lied to us since day one.

Follow the trends...

RCP's still rigged average has Biden's lead up to 9.2, but it's 10 among those polls taken at all after the debate.

It was 6.1 a week ago today.

And 5.8 on September 17th.

Last time it was above this, at 9.3, was the end of July. (It would be 9.3 today without their ignoring the more recent Ipsos poll for some reason.)

270toWin has Biden's lead up to 10.8.

[LarryBnDC]

Meanwhile..

Chicago has deadliest September in 27 years, wit 81 homicides.

Thoughts?

My son lives in Chicago.

Meanwhile

The most technologically advanced nation in the world has lost 211,000 people due to the pathetic federal response to the Corona virus.

Thoughts?

Four years ago, right after the conventions Donald Trump indicated he had a plan to end the violence in Chicago in a week. He has never implemented that plan or told anyone what it was. As a result I blame him personally for each and every violent death in Chicago from one week after that date. The bastard.

And increased heat. 7* higher than average during the daytimes of the month, in aggregate. The nights were not substantially different from the norm.

Nah.

It’s just a matter of “black on black crime in Chicago”

Is it? What do the stats say?

I am sure our level of caring is low.

[REDSTATEWARD]

How is that “social justice” messaging of the NBA and the NFL playing in Peoria?
Not well.

Most of the messages on the back of NBA jerseys:

Education Reform
Vote
Say Their Names
Peace
Equality
Justice
Black Lives Matter

Are these sentiments actually controversial?
Or is it just (mainly) black people saying them that is threatening?

Point is it is causing millions of people to tune out.
When viewers disappear so do sponsors .
