Trump Does Stupid Shit While His Doctors Lie

President Donald Trump has surprised supporters gathered outside the hospital where he is being treated with Covid-19 by riding past in a motorcade.

Wearing a mask, the president waved inside a car moments after tweeting that he would pay a "surprise visit".
So Trump, who has Covid and who is in all probability still contagious, gets into a sealed SUV and rides around, Even with a mask, he's breathing out virus particles and in close quarters for any period of time, masks may not stop everything.

Once again, Trump shows that the people who work for him, who protect him, as disposable.

Then there is this:
[Trump's medical] team, Dr Conley said, decided to give Mr Trump dexamethasone, which is shown in studies to improve survival for patients in hospital with severe Covid-19.
They're giving a drug for people with severe cases to Trump, whom they're saying has a mild case? How does this make any sense?

But let's face this fact: Dr. Conley is a fucking mealy-mouthed liar:
Dr Conley also addressed a conflicting account about the president's health given shortly after his briefing on Saturday by the White House chief of staff. Mark Meadows said Mr Trump's vital signs over the previous 24 hours had been "very concerning" and that the next 48 hours would be critical.

"I think his statement was misconstrued," the doctor said.

However, he acknowledged giving an overly upbeat description of Mr Trump's condition a day earlier: "I didn't want to give any information that might steer the course of illness in another direction. And in doing so, you know, it came off that we were trying to hide something, which wasn't necessarily true."
"Not necessarily true"? Who says shit like that, other than a liar who has been caught lying and is now trying to cover his tracks?

Conley was caught lying about when Trump was given oxygen. He was caught lying about the severity of Trump's symptoms. In the footage on the evening news, one could see Trump's Chief of staff, mark Meadows, sitting off to the side and doing a facepalm.

It's eminently clear that everything that comes out of the Trump White House, including the pronouncements from the white-coated phalanx briefing the press (you have to love the other doctors who are standing behind Lyin' Conley for no goddamned good reason), are lies and have to be rigorously and aggressively checked.

By the way, here's a pro tip for everyone being treated at Walter Reed NMMC: If your doctor is some dude named Sean Conley, he'll lie to you without a qualm.

  1. What if? (I know, there's a post at my place under that headline but this ain't it) Just what if ... ?

    Trump is "Q" and the nutballs got it all wrong: his real mission is to expose the American underbelly, and everything that's wrong with it. From the failed education system to the rigged stock market, with the medical industrial complex and adolescent fairy tales right in the middle of it all. Expose just how uncivilized we are, how third world we've become.

    A bit of mid-nite indigestion, a bite of bad meat, I am sure ...

  2. You'd think with all the lying these people do, they'd have gotten good at it. Apparently, below a certain threshold of competence, not even practice helps.

  4. Had to fix up a few typos..

    They are not lying, they are making it up. They haven't
    coordinated their stories not that they have to.

    Since we do have the fat baby orange orangutan bouncing
    around and doing most everything medically contraindicated
    the covid is fake!

    The only fact to support what I'm about to write is Drumpf lies
    and everything he says are either lies or overt misdirection
    of the truth. So removing him from any possible facts we have...

    Conspiracy 101, this is a test.
    So let say the the Covid-19 test has false positives, maybe due
    to common corona virus (common cold). So Drumpfs positive test
    is fakery. His symptoms are not covid-19 connected. We'll call
    that the setup.

    So lets say that's true, then Drumpf is one to take advantage of a
    situation and use it as political cash. That being to play it out
    and claim not so bad and the people that died would have anyway
    due to comorbidities or they would have anyway. People have already
    claimed that so that echo will get louder. Much to the insult to
    those dead and those seriously ill.

    Considering all the other baiting and false stories out there why not.

    If he went that route that would be a grave moral insult to those
    that have died because of covid and those living with long term
    after effects. That also would be typical of drumpf.

    Its a fucking opinion and I'm entitled to any I like.

    Either way it will not end well.

    Eck!

  5. This should send a lot of medical students in osteopathy. If the leader of the free world uses one, why go into a specialty?
