Let's discuss all of this and take potential arguments and put them out there, and then, for a second, discuss how bad it is that we have to do this.

Someone here, and I cannot find your post, so that's on me; come claim your genius prize, called Trump "Schrodinger's President"

This is because he simultaneously sick and not sick, very ill and mildly ill, all of it, at the same time.

So, scenario 1: He's really sick. In this scenario, we have a really sick fool who didn't wear a mask and who infected basically an entire garden party.
In this scenario, with claims by unreliable liars (including him), everyone got sick and one guy, Grassley, is refusing to test because he wants that judiciary committee to have a quorum.
In this scenario, McConnell, a corrupt a-hole is pulling the Senate until the 18th, to avoid voting on a bill to help ppl in distress but also to protect Senate leaders, except the judiciary committee. Which is convening on the 12th to destroy rights and access to healthcare.
In this scenario, Trump is really sick or very sick or mildly ill, depending on whether you believe the nervous looking doctors on the podium surrounded by goons in white coats who look like bouncers, not physicians.
Scenario 2: Trump is not ill. This is a ploy to gain sympathy because of his tax fraud, desperate desire not to go to jail, and his need to be the center of things. In this scenario, seasoned con artists are continuing their grift by having Trump go hang out at Walter Reed.
This scenario is bolstered by the claim that "he will be released in a few days," because this disease is not like that, but hey, his supporters are really gullible. It is in their best interests to be gullible and some of them drank bleach when he told them to.
In this scenario, he did make those videos (still not live--come on now) but at Walter Reed's where he is being treated for nothing and is hanging out in his cufflinks and regular clothes. This scenario also has the complicated reality of him using oxygen under his mask.
But they are con artists and maybe someone thought this wld be a nice touch. (In the other scenario, he's hiding the oxygen from everyone and not very well.)

Then, there are multiple variations on these scenarios, but notice NONE OF THEM are the stories they are telling us.
And now to my main point: None of it matters. The biggest takeaway is he is a serial liar and we can't believe a thing he says, which is why we're not sure what is going on.

Why would we want someone like that to be our president?

I'm going to do two history threads on Ethiopia, one on its ancient history, one on its modern story (1800 to today). 🇪🇹

I'll begin with the ancient history ... and it goes way back. Because modern humans - and before that, the ancestors of humans - almost certainly originated in Ethiopia. 🇪🇹 (sub-thread):


The first likely historical reference to Ethiopia is ancient Egyptian records of trade expeditions to the "Land of Punt" in search of gold, ebony, ivory, incense, and wild animals, starting in c 2500 BC 🇪🇹


Ethiopians themselves believe that the Queen of Sheba, who visited Israel's King Solomon in the Bible (c 950 BC), came from Ethiopia (not Yemen, as others believe). Here she is meeting Solomon in a stain-glassed window in Addis Ababa's Holy Trinity Church. 🇪🇹


References to the Queen of Sheba are everywhere in Ethiopia. The national airline's frequent flier miles are even called "ShebaMiles". 🇪🇹
