Theory 1) He actually has it, he knew he wouldn't be able to hide it so he is getting out in front of it. This is probably the most likely, however it WOULD be very out of character.
Theory 2) He decided after his terrible debate performance and failing in the polls, that he was gonna do a "bonespurs" and fake sick. In this scenario he goes underground for a bit and probably re-emerges much earlier than a normal quarantine would last for a covid positive person (think 2 weeks or so). Then he talks about how strong he is to overcome it so fast and how it wasn't a big deal. The tell for this scenario will be the quarantine time and his attitude toward the virus coming out of it. Anything under 4 weeks I will be viewing with extreme skepticism.
I'm pretty much w/ Theory 2...he doesn't have it and this is just to get out from losing 2 more debates to Joe.
I rarely read or post anywhere but the city/states sites, but I had to see if anyone had the same idea as I have after I went online and searched "Official verification Trump has C-19 other than his "announcement" via tweet" and many variations hoping the official test results are real. Two search engines and 30 minutes later, nada.
So I came here, and I'm so glad you brought this up, No-Recess!
My answer: I do not know...Maybe?
What utter genius to have an excuse to, so sadly, so unfairly, wah, to have to abort on the next debates. Oh, his fans will be so sad, will rally behind his recovery! How ingenious to create even more havoc and confusion so close to the election, which is what DSMV Narcissists do to retain control and manipulate their flying monkeys-constituents.
Whether this close aide of his has it or not, what a great strategy to introduce this "way he likely got it." And his "mild symptoms," would be very easy to fake.
I hear myself and I sound like some conspiracy person, so I balk at all this, but truly, when I read last night that he "tweeted" his test results instead of his MD - or some official health dept officially announcing the test results, I thought, "This is what narcissists do when they begin seeing they're losing control." They introduce confusion, so people focus on something other than the problem they are creating. They are often very clever, very strategic, which is why they win for so long.
He has so much to gain, politically, from this "unfortunate development" no matter if it's true or not. IMO, it's totally in the realm of possibility that this is one of his biggest lies, for he must, at all cost, retain control.
There is nothing to gain for Trump by having Covid-19 in my opinion. If he suffers moderate to severe symptoms it could end up with him dropping out of the election and/or Pence taking his place as president. I wouldn't put it beyond the democrats as the source of Trumps infection.
One never knows... they have been trying to get Trump for years.. they could have sprayed the virus near him or smeared his mike with the covid. One never knows what the dems will do to take out Trump. They tried impeachment, the dossier, the FBI , anyone who wants to make money including writing books, anything to make a buck.. The dems will do anything to stop the swearing in of a conservative supreme court judge and could infect some of the senators. I don't trust the lefties.. they are some very sick people.
I was just talking about this to a friend this morning.
It could be a strategy to not be as visible during October to his enemies, and put himself at risk for attacks.
Trump is a helluva lot smarter than folks give him credit for, so my guess is he is already 20 steps ahead of everyone else anyway, and this *may* be part of that, or something that just happened by default since his staff has it.
Never a dull moment with this President, that's for sure.
Tell me what Trump lies about? I keep hearing this statement with nothing listed as what he lied about.
you know... the blatant one where he told the public that he had it under control, that it would mysteriously disappear with the warmer weather, but behind closed doors, he acknowledged how serious it was.
yeah, that one.

I don't buy into conspiracies either. But honestly, this administration is so dishonest (really, sending positive talking points to the DHS on Rittenhouse??), that it's not really paranoid thinking to "go there" with the faking-it strategy. That's what this man does to stay on top.

They already said he was infected by a very close adviser, obviously not a democrat
Answered maybe. Mentally I'm around a 70/30 split for he has it vs he is faking sick to play debate hookey.
Ok, but how's your cognitive acumen these days?
