Maybe Adderall will turn out to be the cure?

Poor, poor suffering man.

(1,206 posts)I saw that the NFL is going to test every player, coach and assistant each day throughout training camp.
So, we out here in COVID Land (doctors and nurses too) can barely get a test unless we meet certain criteria, and yet the NFL can do thousands of tests per day to keep the players safe?
Trump is actually partially right about testing - we have the best testing in the world, for the wealthy.

(25,268 posts)Sounds like he is obsessed with the prospects of contracting Covid-19.
He puts on a show for his deplorable's - that he's a macho man who doesn't need masks and he could bravely travel the country and hold rallies and act like everything is normal. However, in the deep recesses of the WH and in his mind - he is really terrified of the virus.
It's like the walls are closing in on him from all sides. He's failing in the polls. The Repugs are giving him till Sept to turn things around or they'll stop supporting him. The virus is rearing its ugly head and on the rise again. Unemployment is raging. The re-opening plan is now put on hold and in many places is reversing. The economy is not getting any better even though Wall Street looks to be propping up the stock market. He is rearranging the chairs on the deck of his failing campaign. The WH looks in disarray. They are trying to come up with ways to entertain his supporters so he can hold on to them till November. Looks like all they can come up with is to restart the Task Force conferences and tweet out a picture of him wearing a mask.
And now he's having them test him for Covid multiple times in a day.
I'm thinking that the thing that will really crush him is finding out he's tested positive for the virus. Maybe that's what he wants now - so that he can have an excuse to bow out of the presidency and blame his getting Covid on the Chinese. Afterall - he can't shoulder the blame for his incompetence in dealing with this Covid crisis.
Get the popcorn ready people. These next four to six months are going to be a wild ride.
