Joe Biden Has COVID, and I Have Questions
Joe Biden Has COVID, and I Have Questions
Coverage by the legacy media, treatment, and how long he's out are thing things to watch.
In case you didn’t know, President Joe Biden just tested positive for COVID. This is just a day after another gaffe-tastic speech, where he stated he has Cancer.
Cancer? Seriously?
The useless White House press office and the legacy media were still trying to spin it, when the COVID news came down.
Saved by the PCR.
Also this morning, according to Real Clear Politics, Biden’s approval rating registered at 36 percent. Talk about bargain basement, he’s now in the sub-basement with those numbers.
Speaking of useless White House press, the intersectionality rich, but highly incompetent Karine Jean-Pierre issued this statement about President Biden’s COVID diagnosis:
This morning, President Biden tested positive for COVID-19. He is fully vaccinated and twice boosted and experiencing very mild symptoms. He has begun taking Paxlovid.
So, is this COVID diagnosis really legit? And if it is, and he’s being treated, what’s with all the pearl clutching and over explanation?
Asking for a friend….
According to KJP, Biden is fully vaccinated and twice boosted. Yet, it didn’t prevent him from getting COVID.
Tell us again why everyone needs those COVID-19 vaccines and boosters?
Consistent with CDC guidelines, he will isolate at the White House and will continue to carry out all his duties fully during this time. He has been in contact with members of the White House staff by phone this morning, and will participate in his planned meetings at the White House this morning via phone and Zoom from the residence.
NARRATOR whispers: In between naps.
Consistent with White House protocol for positive COVID cases, which goes above and beyond CDC guidance, he will continue to work in isolation until he tests negative. Once he tests negative, he will return to in-person work.
Fascinating. After yesterday’s “Cancer” reveal, and the litany of dementia-consistent behavior from Biden, it’s not beyond credulity to see this as a convenient way to get Biden to go gently into that good night.
I can just see KJP two weeks from now, reading from her big binder: “The President is suffering from long COVID now, it has been damaging to his cognitive functioning.”
25th Amendment, here she comes!
I’m old enough to remember when President Trump contracted COVID in October of 2020. Did the Trump haters and the legacy media offer thoughts and prayers?
Nah…
From the station that brought us Russia Collusion and wall-to-wall January 6 coverage:
President Donald Trump, who says he and first lady Melania Trump have tested positive for coronavirus, has several risk factors for more severe Covid-19 symptoms.
Sounds like the news writer is skeptical! Interesting tone for a supposed impartial “journalist”.
He is in a high-risk group simply by virtue of his age -- he is 74 -- and his weight. Trump is clinically obese, and obesity is a risk factor for a more severe form of the illness.
According to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, people in the 65-74 age range face a five times greater risk of hospitalization and a 90 times greater risk of death from Covid-19 compared to young adults between the ages of 18-29.
Based on his physical in April, CNN reported in June that President Trump weighed 244 pounds and is 6 feet 3 inches tall. That gives him a body mass index of 30.5, making him technically, if mildly, obese. Obesity triples the risk of hospitalization from Covid-19, according to the CDC.
Talk about digging Trump’s grave—it’s almost as if they were wishing for further complications.
NARRATOR: They were.
Then there’s the Leftist Guardian, which pretty much critiqued Trump’s COVID response and blamed him for being a fraud because he ultimately contracted a highly contagious disease, before there was a vaccine.
Not that it would have made a difference.
Donald Trump and his wife, Melania, have tested positive for Covid-19. The US president has given repeated conflicting, misleading and false statements on the pandemic.
As Trump goes into isolation, here are some of his most criticised comments on the coronavirus:
Soon after his diagnosis, Trump ended up in the hospital, and the ugliness that disseminated from the media was simply stunning. RedState did a great job of covering it here, and here.
We will see how the legacy media covers Biden’s COVID journey. <insert *eyeroll* emoji>
I wish President Biden well and hope he recovers quickly. The thought of word salad Kamala assuming the highest office is headache inducing.
It's cover for the cancer gaffe. An easy way to keep him in the basement for a week. They literally are thinking about a day or two ahead, it seems.
Thank you for reading and commenting, Cricket! Yes, sadly they do think you're stupid. I was listening to a radio commenter the other day who said they have nothing but contempt for us. I'm inclined to agree--it shows up in everything they do.
