Does Everyone Have A Memory That Lasts as Long as a Fruit Fly?

The Washington Post quite literally won a Pulitzer for exposing neglect of soldiers treated at Walter Reed. It was a massive scandal! https://t.co/36fCwwcL3g https://t.co/TfLQbTk3zG

I mean, I don't like Trump either, but Walter Reed is not a prison, and Trump is not a prisoner. He can walk out whenever he wants to, and can do it without going AMA (Against Medical Advice), because the government has an obligation to provide him with medical care. Then again, he has an obligation to behave like an adult, not a toddler.

A humbling Herman Cain/coronavirus timeline:

6/24: Attends Trump rally, maskless
7/2: Tests positive for Covid-19
7/10: Says he’s improving
7/15: Says his doctors seem happy
7/27: Says he’s really getting better
7/30: Dies

To predict the future, look to the past. I wonder if Cain got steroids to boost his outlook?

A)  Conley is stupid and mendacious.

B) Conley is sly.

C) Yes.

Showed Trump's crazy all-caps morning tweets to a doctor who hasnt been keeping up on Trump's treatment. Pause, then doctor says, "Did they put him on dexamethasone?"

I said yes. Doc says, "My god. We dont let people sign documents if theyre on that, much less run the country,."

What" Don't you feel better now? I was on a drug, an anesthetic, for a colonoscopy. I have no memory of the procedure, but I found myself completely compliant with all commands afterwards, for some time. This was a known side effect, and the reason I couldn't drive myself home. God as my witness, had someone told me to go play in the traffic, I'd have walked out without hesitation and headed for the freeway. They wouldn't let me sign documents in that state, either, and it was no hyper-powerful steroid I was on.

A VIRTUAL debate is being considered for the next Trump-Biden matchup, per two sources, but Debate Commission is still weighing all options (and Trump's health is a wild-card). Decision not likely for a few days. https://t.co/DFESFEA5ak

Changing the rules! UNFAIR! (See "to predict the future" above.)

Katie Miller is certainly an expert on contracting Covid https://t.co/1umkAsN1ay

As I was saying....

From @DanaBashCNN: Source says Treasury Sec. Steve Mnuchin asked Speaker Pelosi if he could come to the Hill Friday for stimulus talks & she said no. She said she can’t trust anyone in the WH on Covid. “The way they treat people – I don’t want them here.”

The adult in the room. Then again, she is 6 years older than Trump.

Here's video of Trump leaving Walter Reed and ignoring a question about "do you think you are a superspreader, Mr. President?" pic.twitter.com/zbaGMSHYd1

I think in his mind this was going to look like a grand entrance (think of Hulk in Thor: Ragnarok).  But honestly, those doors make him look small, and old; and overweight.

Not Donald Trump leaving Walter Reed hospital.
