Covid-19 is loose in the US. Everybody is going to be avoiding crowd situations, like sports events, concerts, church services and Trump rallies. They may have to video conference the nominating convention.

His campaign will have to scramble for a new way to crank up his base. He certainly shouldn't risk being exposed. People his age die of it a lot.

For that matter, both Trump and whomever the Demos nominate will likely be captains of the geriatric squad, who should be running for a rest home, not the White House. Campaigning is hard on the candidate. What will we do if both the Republican and Democratic candidates die on the campaign trail?

The gal in California was intubated on the 19th, but not tested for Covid-19 until the 23. Everyone she infected would be contagious by now. Let's hope she didn't go to church on the 16th.

Well, that would be one good thing to come out of this potential pandemic. Plus, isn't the Very Stable Genius supposed to be a germophobe?

Oh please, you are making way more of it compare to reality. This is a flu, people get sick and they get over it. Only reason why panic is happening is because it's new flu. 10,000 people have died from flu this year and i have yet to see public panic. It would over reaction to cancel sport events, concerts, church service etc. Plus think of impact on economy that this will have. Until and unless it can be shown that this is really deadly virus, normal flu procedure should apply.

Maybe they will put him in a big plastic hamster ball and roll it out on the stage.

Please, we don't want, nor need to hear about your fetishes. This flu run its course soon. No worries, Trump will be reelected.

NO it isn't.


But you do seem quite irritated that he can hold a rally, anywhere. Fill it to 2X+ beyond capacity. And there are large percentages of Democrats, minorities and first time voters in attendance.

You can go to as many stadium or theater events as you want to. You will not be seeing me there if this virus starts spreading.

The only thing you have to worry about is how many Kleenex boxes you need when Trump wins...

Enjoy staying home under blanket. Do you do same thing every year when flu spreads?
