If Stephen Miller gets covid, then that’s big because it means even the undead aren’t immune. -- nm - Tim Oct 2, 10:16 6
- ST is bringing it... -- nm - Diva Oct 2, 10:17 5
  - (I’m more nervous than schadenfreude-ing about Trump, because as I said, I think a likely outcome is: - Tim Oct 2, 10:20 4
    - If it were nothing, and he's fine, you know he'd be tweeting right now about it. - Inigo Oct 2, 10:28
    - Or he dies and we get Pence. -- nm - jnine Oct 2, 10:26
    - Even if he gets new lungs. -- nm - Graveman ⚰️💀 Oct 2, 10:25
    - If hes has to cancel events and rallies for several weeks - eag Oct 2, 10:25
The other way this helps Trump is that journalism stories that were ready to drop would seem like poor taste right now. - David Oct 2, 10:10 16
- Biden now shows to be in the right on COVID strategy. Possibly avoid further debate nonsense. -- nm - 🎃🎃 Bud S. Pumpkins 🎃🎃 Oct 2, 10:15
- On the flipside, he looks weak for getting sick and 'hiding' -- nm - ty97 Oct 2, 10:12 12
  - And it focuses more light on his handling of the Covid crisis (and his failures) where his polling is awful. Covid, more than his taxes, hurts his - pmb Oct 2, 10:24

      - While generally true, I think there are some that literally didn't think this could possibly happen. It won't change their allegiance, but they will - pmb Oct 2, 10:26 1
        
        Maybe not show up to vote and since he convinced them not to request mail in ballots, oh well. -- nm - jnine Oct 2, 10:27
      - His base has never been who we are trying to win. -- nm - ty97 Oct 2, 10:24
      - let them ride. the rest of us will distance, wear masks and vote. -- nm - 😈💀 Deevil 🤡👻 Oct 2, 10:18 2
        
        This might change there perception of voting by mail - eag Oct 2, 10:20 1
        
        it's 'their'. -- nm - 😈💀 Deevil 🤡👻 Oct 2, 10:36

    - Like you haven't taken someone else's income as if you own them... -- nm - David Oct 2, 10:12 2
      - Sure. I’m a capitalist. I haven’t taken it as an offset to their salary!!! - Will Hunting 🧠’s Oct 2, 10:14
      - I think Vince finally found out that UpUpDownDown is wildly successful and wanted his cut. -- nm - Tim Oct 2, 10:14

  - I'm now imagining them on the Titanic. You know Stephen Miller would knife a kid for a spot on a lifeboat. -- nm - crash davis Oct 2, 10:05 8
    - If anyone in that building were to seize an opportunity for a coup or deport more people, it would be him. -- nm - Max Oct 2, 10:09 1

    - "Did he just talk to me like I'm not pretty??" -- nm - Max Oct 2, 10:11 1
      - ha ha ha -- nm - amanda 💃💃💃 Oct 2, 10:13
- Understandably so -- nm - ty97 Oct 2, 10:04
- Hopefully they will forget to sign their donation checks. (NM) - Marlowe Oct 2, 10:04

Notre Dame president Jenkins has tested positive for COVID. He was at the Judge Barrett announcement at the WH last week. We may have our superspreader event -- (link*) - decline Oct 2, 09:46 31
- So many are testing positive... at least a couple are going to show serious symptoms, right? Maybe even die. This is terrible. -- nm - 🧹 Broom 🧹 Oct 2, 09:56 2
  - I surely hope not. (NM) - Marlowe Oct 2, 09:58
  - Certainly hope not, but some are in a dangerous age group -- nm - ty97 Oct 2, 09:57
- This is how Trump loses and turns around my negativity on this matter. - 🧹 Broom 🧹 Oct 2, 09:55
- Can I say that I really dislike using ACB for her? Why can't it just be Barrett or presumably Justice Barrett. I feel like the ACB is just there to - kilboooooo 👻 Oct 2, 09:52 16
  - Agreed. -- nm - znoooooooo!!! Oct 2, 10:24
  - 100% -- nm - 🧛‍♀️slayformojo💀 Oct 2, 10:22
  - The GOP is already selling "Notorious ACB" shirts. -- nm - MDH Oct 2, 10:02
  - I keep forgetting her real name because the thought of her and what she represents is so repulsive and I'm blocking. I can remember 'Barrett' though. -- nm - 😈💀 Deevil 🤡👻 Oct 2, 10:02 2
    - I vote just Barrett from now on - she deserves our disdain and not our respect -- nm - Pippy's Brew Oct 2, 10:05 1
      - yonh. -- nm - 😈💀 Deevil 🤡👻 Oct 2, 10:09
  - Word. -- nm - pmb Oct 2, 09:57
  - agreed. it feels like an attempt to equate her to RBG in some way, which she is not. i think just "Barrett" is fine, no need to include any formal -- nm - colin 👻💦🍆 Oct 2, 09:56 2
    - The used Notorious ACB almost immediately, which pissed me off. -- nm - Andie Oct 2, 09:57 1
      - yeah, f that. -- nm - colin 👻💦🍆 Oct 2, 10:02
  - Have you heard of AOC? (I'm just using what others seem to be using) -- nm - ty97 Oct 2, 09:52 4
    - This is actually an argument in favour of using her actual name. -- nm - Graveman ⚰️💀 Oct 2, 09:59
    - That seemed to start because no one could pronounce her hyphenated name. And by no one, I mean white people that hate her. -- nm - Qale Oct 2, 09:58 2
      - I love when Qale keeps it real. -- nm - 😈💀 Deevil 🤡👻 Oct 2, 10:04

  - She and Trump met with him. -- nm - jnine Oct 2, 09:52 2
    - now, I'm not wishing the coves on anyone..... -- nm - crash davis Oct 2, 09:54 1
      - I think Mitch is worse than Trump. He has a longterm plan of evil. He and his wife are also stealing the country blind. -- nm - jnine Oct 2, 09:58

  - Mother would never allow it -- nm - colin 👻💦🍆 Oct 2, 10:07
- If Trump's not on the call I imagine his voice has gotten bad. -- nm - Max Oct 2, 09:53

- He can catch up on his DVR full of Morning Joes that he has been meaning to hate watch -- nm* - crash davis Oct 2, 09:43
he has to absolutely *love* how all the talking heads are harping about his age and obesity. - 😈💀 Deevil 🤡👻 Oct 2, 09:40 9

One other thought: We don't know that Hope Hicks gave it to Trump (or anyone). The order of symptoms appearing doesn't imply order of infections. - ty97 Oct 2, 09:33 9
- There was that story 2 weeks ago? seems like a year, that several West Wing aides had tested positive and they refused to comment on it. It's probably - jnine Oct 2, 09:57
