I have become so cynical when it comes to Trump that I'm not yet sure it’s real or a PR stunt? It would achieve the following: Skip debate Engender sympathy Show that hydroxychoriquin works Show that it’s not a big deal Show how "strong" he is It's unlikely, but I wouldn't put it past him. If there is any semblance of justice, he will experience the long term symptoms that so many others have; due to his complacency. 200k+ dead. That would be justice. His supporters are praying. His detractors are celebrating. If they celebrate too hard the few undecideds could be pushed to a sympathetic support of him. Nobody will care anymore about his taxes or his white supremacy. His Covid will now dominate the news cycle. It will be all about him. Him. Him. If he has no symptoms, he will relish this.
