lady walking by..stops to chat (yes, I know her)..got on the subject COVID 19, we had only been chatting a few minutes..me from more than 6 feet - she mentioned a family wedding in MN - over 100 guests..NO COVID..reallY?? I am so happy for you, then she turns to "tfg", and I said "he didn't have covid..her eyes widen, then I said "prove it"..I am not confrontational in the neighborhood..

She just struck me the wrong way..(oh, part of her chat included the problem in society, not enough religion - I left that one alone..talk about a loaded comment..)..as I turned to my rake..hello rake!!!

it was all drama to prove what tough guy he was...never. Pure RW BS from then fevered brains of miller, bannon, kushner, ivanka? All? After a BS session somewhere. I never believed that orange slime had anything like Covid. Probably ate too much and had something that disagreed with his useless ass. Or just pure drama and BS.

If he was at death's door with Covid, why was he up chatting with other patients?
Why was he up sitting at a big table, allegedly doing paperwork?
Why was he able to take a joy ride in the limo to wave at folks outside?

And why did all the "doctors" look like central casting sent them to pose outside for news cameras?

I don't believe he had it.

And who the hell is Damian Paletta??

Damian Palette is ECONOMICS EDITOR at WaPo, formerly a reporter for WALL STREET JOURNAL.

An authority on Covid, evidently. (/sarcasm)

Yasmeen Abutaleb is reported to have worked in the Trump administration to specifically kill the Affordable Care Act.

And Damian Paletta has a secretive personal background. Now with WaPo, formerly with WSJ.

BOTH OF THEM fake, in my opinion, and this is a total fraud of a story.

Some entity will likely make a huge buy of the book and plug it hard.

That degree of noncompliance would have anyone out the door, no matter who he was. I've seen top level corporate CEOs fired by their doctors and shown the door for far less.

What will always stick me is the way he ripped his mask off in front of the cameras after he huffed and wheezed his way up the stairs. He was obviously ill and in some trouble and probably still contagious, but showboating for his base of idiots was more important.

One hopes there was some damage, that he will be too debilitated to be a carbuncle on the country's arse for much longer.
