President Trump’s publicity stunt ride around the block
For everyone who's been following President Trump's hospitalization today was day three. And as you all may know, he pulled a small stunt today when he stepped out of the hospital, got into his SUV along with Secret Service detail and took a rider on the block waving to his supporters. The audacity over here is that he did this so against medical advice, the protocol for COVID patients is that even people who have recovered completely are quarantined for two solid weeks and do not come in contact with other people

Shami. I absolutely agree. You know, putting other people's health at risk is just silly and reckless, and it's just wrong. And one point I also like to point out is that Trump is actually putting his own health behind his image. And not only is he putting other people at risk, he's also putting himself at risk as well. And I say that coming from the point of view of whether you're in recovery or still battling an illness

But it's not, like, a guarantee or something. It just helps go faster. It prevents viral replication. Now the steroids, the dexamethasone. I don't know. There's a lot of talk about how. Oh, my gosh. She's on steroids. And you only give steroids for the really serious covert patients. I don't know. I mean, when it comes to lungs, steroids sometimes is a treatment of choice. Covid or not, asthmatics get steroid all the time

He only thinks about the next step and to the point that he could just self distract. If this was the way he treats himself being such a narcissistic, if this is the way he treats keep plans for things for himself, you can imagine what he'd do with our country. He just write it off a cliff. Regardless, it looks like his decision to get back is all about a show of resilience, unnecessary resilience
