And don't forget all the damn wars that killed (thankfully) less of our service members than Covid 19 keeps killing. The sympathy to him is deserving no accolades for his effort to combat it.Dead is dead. That is what it caused for over 214,000 Americans. Which 9 month period did aids and ebola kill as many Americans?Did you really just claim that Covid 19 had the same effect as Aids and Ebola? Come on...don't make an ass of yourself!For many it had the same effect, slower than aids but in some cases about as fast as Ebola. Doesn't bother me to put on a mask before going into a store. TN is somewhere around #10 in the country after it caught on. Mask requirements were lifted Saturday, a week ago, though it is still recommended. Most down here know people that have died. Most still mask.I didn't change anything in my life really. I had no choice but to wear a mask in the corporate establishments that forced everyone to do just that and that's about it. It was a really bad flu...it wasn't Ebola...it wasn't AIDS!Pretty good way to be. I take precautions, but obviously not enough or I wouldn't have been certified with the anti-bodies. Still I take precaution, as I don't count on being among the lucky ones forever and my wife did not come down with it, as she was not on the trip when I got it, and does not have the antibodies. She might fare worse. We don't go crazy about or preach at people in stores, but we observe the recommendations, to support ourselves and our community.I'm not concerned about Covid. I don't smoke. I'm not obese. I have no underlying medical conditions. To be honest...I've never been concerned for myself when it comes to Covid...my only worry is that I might give it to someone who is too compromised to fight it.Secret service is like everybody else, except mostly in better physical condition. I am aware there was a multiple outbreak at their academy back in the summer and multiple people on detail and advance teams have popped positive. It can be serious and has proven serious or the pres would not have said it was serious on tape, call a reporter. I do not think the doctor is any kind of "drama queen". I suspect he is just a good doctor, that knows the score. I will not be disappointed at the outcome of donnie's covid experience, any way it goes. I have a pretty strict policy of not bothering to give a damn about people who do not give a damn about themselves, others or how they present themselves to others. You do not seem concerned about Covid. I hope you do not have to become concerned due to personal or family infection. I care more for your well being, than I do trump's.I thought he had gotten out of the Hospital. I didn't know it was just a joy ride, to wave at people and expose perfectly health secret service protective detail personnel to Covid-19 in closed bullet proof SUV with all the windows closed. He is back in the hospital now. Good grief! What a uncaring Jerk!

'This is insanity': Walter Reed doctor slams Trump for drive-by
Dr James Phillips, a doctor at Walter Reed, reacted with anger on Sunday night to Donald Trump's drive-by outside the hospital to wave at supporters, saying it was 'insanity'.www.dailymail.co.uk
Yeah, because we know that healthy individuals like Secret Service Agents are keeling over and dying from Covid all the time! What a drama queen that doctor is! I know you on the left WANT Trump to be deathly ill and stay in the hospital for weeks but I've got a feeling he's going to disappoint you once again! Just saying...
A disaster on our home ground with a disaster of a president in charge.
