What are the chances COVID leaves trump in a state of serious mental decline / brain damage.
I wonder when anyone's going to start talking about the meat of politics (economics and international relations) instead of focusing on culture war issue after culture war issue. It's almost like both parties have nothing else to offer other than cookie-cutter neoliberal politics that every country has pursed since 1971 so they hypertrophy cultural issues to make it seems like they're a big deal.
Did you find it interesting that your science-denying fuhrer came down with the hoax plague?

Sure, let's talk about your boy, Trump, and his hatred of immigration. Shall we talk about his complete incompetence in handling every crisis that comes? Let's talk about his hatred of the free markets, and love of taxation. I'd love to talk about his terrible foreign policy, support of murderous tyrants, as well as his abject failure when it comes limiting government.
Where do you want to start?

You're a few decades too late on that one.
It will be a long time. When it ends, the question is not will the US still be a superpower - we won't be - but the question is will we even be a major power. Talking about "important issues" is useless and meaningless in our Culture War Era.
Even the business community articles are all barely concealed political attack ads, and with that the business debates are just as much a part of the culture wars as anything else.
Just survive the ride. It won't be fun, and it will last quite a bit longer. It will definitely last past January 21, when presumably the President from 2021 - 2024 will be known and will start his or her term. With the virus, it's not even guaranteed to be Trump or Biden at this late point.
JUST IN: Press Sec. Kayleigh McEnany gives reporters an update on President Trump: "He's been hard at work. We're having to slow him down a little bit."
The survival rate for Trump's age group is about 75%, or what Hillary's odds of winning were.
Trump has nothing to worry about, assuming he's not male, over 70, obese, or has had a stroke or heart attack.

In a poetic moment, four years ago today Trump mocked Clinton for having pneumonia. I might be starting to believe in karma.
So... You're telling me that there may be a god, after all?
Forgive my english, as i'm not a native speaker
I do hope Trump gets better. I wish COVID19 on no one.
This photo is a vibe though.
