The Presidential doctor is such a suck-up, too. On Friday they said he was great, and now they say his oxygen actually dipped to 94% before being given oxygen. But he is great now, trust us! Also lol'd at this exchange: Did you give him a second round of oxygen?" - 'Uhh, I'd have to check with the nurse..." Which means yes we did, but we've been instructed to only say good things. He looks and sounds just like Ronny Jackson. I had to do a double take yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's already been confirmed that he deliberately delayed going to Walter Reed until the market was closed on Friday. That's interesting. So we really have no idea what's going on. The idea that Trump will walk out of there tomorrow may happen, or it may be as delusional as "We'll be open by Easter"(anyone else remember that one? ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was saying that you wonder what would happen if it ever came time for Trump to go on a vent. I could totally see him causing his own death by, in those crucial minutes, telling his doctors to wait and not do it. What do you do as a doctor when the President of the United States orders you not to vent him, and then he becomes unable to give further directions because he can't talk anymore?

It puts these doctors in a horrible position. I can totally imagine Trump having that VIP syndrome just because of who he is. Add onto that that these doctors are literally bound to take orders from him and that adds another layer of self-inflicted danger for Trump.

I think it's important to remember that Trump is 74 and can barely walk even on a good day. If he pulls rank to be released early there's a good chance he has a Hillary moment.

b_m_b_m_b_m Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Also it sounds like the briefing doctor essentially said he needed oxygen intermittently, not continuously so in that case apparently giving dex is not a good idea, pointing back to the original tweet of mine today that @Joe responded to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
