Trump +ve for Covid

[Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g]

If he was a decent person I'd be wishing him well. He's not. I'm not.

TeddyIsaHe Obviously you don’t need to fall over yourself with sympathising, but to actually wish death and illness on someone (unless maybe they’re a mass murderer) is kind of a bit sick and pretty unpleasant. Do you apply that way of thinking to anyone in your life who doesn’t share your opinions?

These kind of comments raise more ethical questions than they answer. Life is not always fairytale simple.

Where does responsibility lie for the 200,000 American deaths from covid? Clearly not murder. But is Trump culpable at all? If he is culpable does he therefore deserve to die himself? Are we only allowed to wish ill on murderers or on other 'baddies' too? Etc. etc. etc.

I don't think it is surprising some wish ill on someone with a history of unkindness. I don't do that myself but I'm not sure it is surprising or something I judge harshly.

Poor Melania, I’d rather be shot at point blank range than have to isolate with the Orange One

Citizens' that should be! 200,000 deaths so far? Astounding numbers when you stop to think of it

Proportionately, Johnson has presided over far more deaths.

Don't yet see the hatred toward Bojo, who has far more influence on national healthcare than Trump does in the states, where health is much more at the state level.

As much as i despise DT, if he doesn't sail through this, the Republicans will win in November, so be careful what you wish for.

If he was doing this for a sympathy vote, I am not sure how much sympathy he would get. Bojo didn't get much sympathy.

Strongmen dictators like trump are supposed to be invincible. Thats why people vote for a strongman because their 'invincibility' gives them an illusion of stability.

Trump could try to use this in many ways. To invalidate the election.... To get two weeks of quarantine golf...

I'm making my prediction now that he will only get it mildly (which statistically is still the most likely outcome for him) and we will never hear the end of how it is not serious, what is everyone making such a fuss over etc.

I don't wish him the worst but hopefully a short stint in hospital with it might make him reevaluate his approach

If he was doing this for a sympathy vote, I am not sure how much sympathy he would get. Bojo didn't get much sympathy

The tories would probably win a GE if held tomo, certainly the biggest party.
Being responsible for large numbers of deaths doesn't seem to be a bar to getting reelected.

He will never reevaluate his approach. He is unable to do that because of his psychopathic narcisstic nature.

If he gets over it OK, all the more reason for him not to set an example by wearing a mask

A different conspiracy angle: You have to wonder why he has gone public with his positive Covid test too. Because if he’s asymptotic and positive, he could have easily covered it up and carried on. He apparently doesn’t think it’s anything to worry about and clearly doesn’t care about it spreading. He has no symptoms. No one would ever know and he could keep up the strong man invincible to Covid appearance.

So it must suit him to make it known that he has tested positive.

+no presidential debate
+the sympathy vote
+possible attempts to postpone/stop the election

The U.K. has more death due to Covid per capita than the US so should Boris be held culpable and were people wishing him death? We’re a tiny island compared to the US but we still are nudging ahead on the death rate.

Honestly some of the posts on here are unhinged but I suppose that is what you get on an anonymous forum.

And his entire dumb family took their masks off during the debate

@Hmmph oh never thought of this!!

I agree with all those points. I’d bet money on it he comes out fine and says it was nothing. This could win him the election.

@weepingwillow22

Hoping it is not just an election ploy, avoid debates, garner the sympathy vote etc

Yes, I thought this. I wonder if he really DID test positive at all?

I hope he doesn't get an electoral 'bounce' from it, that would be ironic!

The moral/ethical question about wishing death on someone:

Is it better for one person responsible for many deaths to die than for the many deaths to continue.

See Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Hitler. Even though he 100% beloved he would go to hell for killing Hitler, he still tried because of the lives he could save.

I am not saying Trump = Hitler, but that wanting a death doesn’t necessarily make you morally corrupt.

Rember this is the man who avoided the US Military draft with bone spurs that haven't troubled him since.
He has history of faking medical facts when it suits him

Trump could take time to read up on some lifestyle tips from this guy!

@1dayatatime

Have just scrolled back and read your brill post - you win, Mystic Meg!

Just to be clear, I'm not wishing for anything. I'm just scared of the increasing feelings of chaos.

Elderly, overweight, high stress lifestyle and poor diet.

He's a coward and a liar.

In a week or so, he will tweet that he never tweeted it and people are making up false news.

Why I’d Donald trump or Boris Johnson responsible for Covid deaths? They are supposed to following the advice of scientists.

Why do you need some one to die?
