He was not taking HCQ since including now, spokesman said. Maybe that was his problem. We will never know.

    But there is a happier side — he, or whomever would have paid his drug bill outside his insurance formulary, saved the $1.35/wk expense that regimen would have cost @ $0.65 for HCQ once per week and $0.10 for zinc 7 times/wk.

    I have to be cautious by admitting that, like much of POTUS’ medical history, we do not know if he had any adverse reaction to his taking the drug in May, such as upset stomach or an ultra-rare increased heart arrhythmia.

    I just tried to listen to the video of his cameo last night---I confess I did not make it to the end. It was vintage trump BS, with one exception, apparently the make-up people weren't aloud in and his orange paint has faded. Do you think he can comb his own hair---I can only guess how long that might take.

    The pettiness of TDS is all-consuming and unrepressable it seems.
    Might as well kick him when he’s down before he gets up and kicks their collective azzes...again.

    I suggest that a touch of humility and honesty would have been not only appropriate but also a positive change--but alas those traits remain beyond his ability.

    He and the rest are definitely not alone in his lack of certain abilities. I think that's why half of the politicians are politicians in the first place they can't do anything else. Could probably delete "ELSE"
    This is your mind on drugs!

    I do not confuse humility with getting the job done that I want and think we need. I’ll take his boorish demeanor in exchange.
    Compare him with the suave & slick zer’O who proved incompetent. The grifting never-done-anything-in-his-life-but-stand-off-Corn-Pop, Joe Biden, will be worse.

    I just listened to the medical briefing, if we were not talking about the condition of the POTUS, the amateurism of the lies might be funny---essentially he said---OK---I lied yesterday but trust me today----of course we will doc
