From President Biden's Doctor: The President presented this afternoon with upper respiratory symptoms, to include rhinorhea (runny nose) and non-productive cough, with general malaise. He felt okay for his first event of the day, but given that he was not feeling better, point of care testing for COVID-19 was conducted, and the results were positive for the COVID-19 virus. Given this, the President will be self-isolating in accordance with CDC guidance for symptomatic individuals. PCR confirmation testing will be pending. His symptoms remain mild, his respiratory rate is normal at 16, his temperature is normal at 97.8 and his pulse oximetry is normal at 97%. The President has received his first dose of Paxlovid. He will be self-isolating at his home in Rehoboth.

Nice to see the truth come out about the Presidents health, but crickets about trumps “boo-boo” ear! Why is that? 🤔

Pad on it at convention, but not in prior days when playing golf; why?

Tom, I noticed that about Sunday's golf game and no visible bandage too. The con is strong with this one!

It was a small folded gauze taped on with scotch tape. Comparing a close up the day of ,and the little gauze , I'm betting not even 1 stitch. Most likely it was just a piece of glass flying from the teleprompter.

Probably because he & others took the time off(ghost for 11+ days) planning this? Did he hear over his ear bud at that moment to "duck"? I am not a conspiracy theorist. The whole bunch of he & his team are shady to say the least.

Ellmarree,

The more I talk to my brother and my friend, and the more I rewatch, the more a conspiracy makes sense. This tactic has been used before by other strongmen - stage an assassination attempt to win over people who then see them as "strong," "resilient," and "a fighter." Using scapegoats, and sacrificing supporters would be nothing in the grand scheme, for the greater good.

Expand full comment

No, a conspiracy *doesn't* make sense. Look how you jumped from watching and rewatching a video to "this tactic has been used by other strongmen . . ." That's correlation, not causation, and weak correlation at that. Please stop. What's happening is quite scary enough.

Exactly that! We’re on top his drama.

The glass from the teleprompter struck his ear. You could see the glint of glass. The velocity of a bullet from an AR15 would have ripped through his head.

My opinion.

Exactly. I am of the same opinion. A bullet from an AR15 would have ripped a least the entire ear off.

I keep thinking of "White Christmas" with Bing Crosby & Danny Kaye. Everytime Danny Kaye tries to get Bing Crosby to do something, Danny rubs his upper arm because he got shot protecting Bing, so he does it to remind Bing and plays on his guilt. trump will put his hand to his ear anytime someone asks him a question he doesn't know the answer to, like he's in pain listening! LOL!

😂 my favorite Christmas movie! And absolutely! Remember the scene when DK was in the hospital and BC came to see him, to thank him for saving his life? At the end of the scene, when they shook hands DK pulled his arm out is the sling! A con, but that was a funny one! Love that movie! "Sisters, sisters"🎶

Thank you, Scott and shame on Schumer/Schiff. Then it was put on X. by the Guardian “Joe Biden tests positive for COVID and has mild symptoms, White House- Live” I’m still trying to recover.”

My phone was hacked yesterday gmail & substack, Google map. Biden/Harris are on the ballot. Stay safe & healthy.

I was shocked with the news Shiff & Shumer took that route. Shiff did an amazing job during the impeachment of the other guy. I am extremely disappointed with them!

Do they believe they’d be a better candidate? It seems so contrived, their calling for Biden to step down.

I agree. Let Our President finish what he has started. He is respected, and is approachable because of that & his dedication. He pulled us out of the mess made by the other guy!

President Biden has a wonderful president. Why are some people calling for him to step down. It makes no sense to me.

I was told a tablet or iPad were the safest. I may be saying this to folks who already know.

I had to shut the news OFF. ABC was say what Biden had said about if his doctor told he had this condition or that condition he would drop out of the race. So ABC has a doctor on the phone, JUST because he has Covid, asking the doctor to speculate what “condition” MIGHT develop because he has Covid!!!! He’s HAD Covid before, he’s fully vaccinated, he recovered just fine. So what the hell is ABC speculating for?? It makes me sick. I cannot watch these trash media outlets, blowing everything to do with Biden out of proportion while not saying one damn thing about what a liar the felon is, how obese he is, about project 2025, about the camps he intends to put people in, mass deportation, how he can’t be trusted to not call for a national abortion ban and let women in pregnancy crisis JUST DIE!! He is THE worst, sorry excuse for a human being to ever try to win the presidency and media STAYS QUIET ABOUT HIM!!!🤬

The universe can stop throwing us curve balls now.

I’ve stopped reading MSM because it’s too easy for me to fall into despair. It makes me question my gut instinct that the Dems will prevail this fall.

I hope Biden recovers quickly.

POTUS says he “feels really good” & has started special COVID Med today…he will unfortunately be required to be in Isolation for 5-6days.

A friend of mine just came thru this for the 3rd time recently & is doing fine- just a bit wiped out.

🌷Sending best wishes for a quick recovery to our favorite POTUS👈👏

Thanks for sharing & now I wonder how many people’s true character will show upon this piece of information. Because Covid can mess with seniors. Which means once again thank heavens for the vaccines.
