    The rhetorical question was to point out that Charlottesville happened 3 years ago.

    Nobody is remotely suggesting that secret service stops. Everyone’s point is the obvious...don’t be a selfish sonofabich and put those people in harms way for a joy ride photo op

    but you knew that and felt like arguing a straw man. That’s fine.

    Because he has covid. Are you being obtuse on purpose or are you that stupid? Not trying to be mean. He is still president you are right but is it worth risking the well being of the secret service? . Are they that disposable?

    ah, I see. The old prove the negative move. “I’m sure it happened.” Because if it didn’t, trump would in fact be a selfish sonofabich.

    what, there was a magic force field around trump? Explain this magic mitigation that I’m stupid to suggest did not exist. (I’m sure the response is...no, YOU explain how mitigation DIDNT happen”. This is so much fun.)

    Again, it’s not my opinion. It is the statement of a treating physician at walter Reed.

    Are you suggesting that those lives mean so little to put them at greater risk for a photo op?

    I would be shocked if he has driven in decades. He doesn’t need to and years ago said he liked having drivers/assistants because it lets him focus on work.

    dont. leave. The. hospital. For. A. Joyride. Publicity. Stunt.

    see, if he had to leave the hospital to return to the White House, or some other non-stupid, non-completely selfish sonofabich reason, that would be different.

    Bro if you think there wasnt mitigation you're an idiot. No one is suggesting they were at risk

    As much as his response to the virus is a topic im sure if people in the know think the secret service was comprised it would be a headline

    But you guys no for sure not seeing a damn thing in the suv

    Do you think the President who has Covid to the point he had to be administered oxygen, remdivisir, steroids and experimental drugs should have gone for a photo op drive?

    I'm guessing you will say something like the doctors must have approved it, but what choice did they really have?

    Sometimes leaders need to act like leaders.

    Bro, it is being reported already by multiple sources as reckless. Including by an attending physician at the hospital.

    Not sure what type of mitigation you can suddenly perform in a hermetically sealed vehicle besides throwing some masks on people and hoping for the best.


    Sounds awfully similar to gassing peaceful protestors so he could hold a Bible upside down in front of a church...

    ok. Let’s just go with the “magic force field in the car” mitigation.

    because trump can’t possibly be a selfish sonofabich. Right?

    like, as soon as he tested positive, he informed all the folks he had been exposed to, so that they could contact trace and ensure that they would not inadvertently infect their families or others? Wait, no. Weird, that didn’t happen.

    like, how they informed all White House staff who has been in regular contact with all the folks who tested positive? Weird, that didn’t happen either.

    like how they informed the waiters, staff, and other folks who worked at the superspreader event, so they wouldn’t go infect their families?

    Hmmm, seems like maybe trump is a selfish sonofabich.

    He literally left the hospital for five minutes, or however long, to take a ride around the hospital, to see people that worship him, before going back to his room.


    Definition of joyride


    1: a ride taken for pleasure (as in a car or aircraft)especially : an automobile ride marked by reckless driving (as in a stolen car)

    I don't believe the words joy and ride were used in my post.
