Re: 2020 Election
I've lost count of all of the times I've been exposed, been in and out of quarantine, or gotten word (weeks or months later) that somebody died who I may or may not have been in contact with when they were contagious . . . in lieu of an actual national plan, I have relied heavily on brick dust, chicken bones and graveyard dirt. Of course, masks and hand sanitizer help too.
Don't even worry about that little box over there that has the lemons, black candles, orange voodoo dolls, nails, pictures of the orange turd with the eyes burnt out etc

You could also look at it as meaning it's possible he's really ill -- I'm not sure he would permit them to admit he needed hospitalization if it was just precautionary. At least, he can't get away with not wearing a mask now!

I was going to say, I don't like listening to podcasts (unless I'm driving) but I see they have a transcript, so I can read that. 'listening' while at home is just not my thing (similar to watching youtube videos - unless it's a band!). But I will be driving from AZ to CA this weekend (fires permitting) so could definitely try the podcast. It seems like they provide a bunch of ways to listen. Of that long list, I have TuneIn, and I wouldn't object to installing Google Podcasts on my (android) phone. I don't actually have spotify, or any of the other things listed. I don't mind installing apps but I always take a hard-line with 'signing up' for anything these days. I already have probably several hundred accounts with various entities, so I'm just trying to fight off making the situation any worse!

hmmmm
Trump apparently also takes these medications.
zinc, vitamin D, famotidine, melatonin and a daily aspirin.
So likely has heartburn/acid reflux (considering its not a super strong med, probably not severe, I take a strong medication for my acid reflux, famotidine does nothing for me.)
Appears to have trouble sleeping.
I assume the daily aspirin is to reduce stroke/heart attack risk?
This list was released by his doctor when the doctor released the info about the antibody cocktail.

Possible, of course. But given that he's POTUS, they probably want to hurry him onto drips, have respirators close by, etc etc. We may never know.

Oh goodness if he drank bleach he is gonna be more than a stomach pump, bleach does very bad things and quite quickly too.
Lets just say if you drank bleach and got to the hospital in time to save your life, you will likely lose your stomach, and part of your esophagus, the surgeon would after removing your stomach and part or all of your esophagus, take your small intestine and do their thing, and presto now your eating baby food/mushy foods the rest of your life, and when you swallow the food goes directly into your intestine since you no longer have a stomach.
Oh and the bleach on the way to the hospital will be burning your stomach and esophagus causing you extreme pain.
Never drink bleach folks.
Oh and if you waited too long to go to the hospital, RIP.

And it saves moving him later, if he gets more ill, and having to explain that. This way they say ahead of time that he will be there for several days.

He can walk, which is actually an improvement if we think of the ramps.
