Conversations w Republicans close to WH over last 12 hours indicate it’s been far more dire than WH has said. Before being taken to Walter Reed, Trump kept asking aides, “Am I going out like Stan Chera? Am I?” (Chera was Trump’s NYC friend who died of Covid in April)
https://twitter.com/gabrielsherman/status/1312443979321896960?s=21
Per source, Trump was told on Friday he could go to Walter Reed voluntarily, but he would be taken no matter what when his condition worsened. Doctors told Trump if he waited he could lose ability to walk to Marine One (optics of a wheelchair or stretcher obvs would be terrible)
Gabriel Sherman's got some more tea! Trump asked aides if he was dying

JUST IN: A source familiar with the president's condition tells reporters:
“The president’s vitals over the last 24 hours were very concerning and the next 48 hours will be critical in terms of his care. We’re still not on a clear path to a full recovery.”
It was Mark Meadows

For what it's worth, Chief of Staff Mark Meadows said this in an "off the record" huddle despite live cameras still rolling.
Meadows then noticed the cameras and asked they be shut off before he'd share more "off the record" stuff.

Trump is a narcissist and narcissists need fuel.
That’s why Trump kept having those big rallies. This is the worst thing that could have happened to him and he would have covered it up if someone hadn’t leaked it to the press.
