Do we really know Trump tested positive? What if he went to Walter Reed for something else?

What of he went there to ESCAPE the mini White House pandemic?

What if he had an out-patient procedure?

Meanwhile, they're using COVID-19 as a cover but manufacturing the narrative that 1) Trump is cured by a miracle vaccine he'll make available in January, 2) that he's stronger and in better health than Joe Biden, and 3) that if Biden drops out of the debates he's a coward.

Or something like that.

the more likely that things go wrong. They should stick with the simple stuff. Putting your pants on one leg at a time. That sort of thing.

There is literally no way on earth someone could have convinced him to do this as a pretend ploy. No way. This is real, he is sick (mentally and physically now), and it's only a matter of time since we all know he does nothing to help mitigate any problems. Too bad his family now knows his "estate" isn't worth so much after all.

I just don’t get why so many people think faking COVID, of all possible, hugely better distractions, would be Trump’s evil plan.

...and nothing in this story says anything about a "miracle cure", all it says is what kind of treatment you can get when you have your own personal medical team, your own personal medical floor, and a personal helicopter to take you there.
