Good news is that self-isolation shouldn’t change his normal day-to-day routine.

Reminds me of Dorothy Parker’s remark when told that Calvin Coolidge was dead: "How can they tell?"

Trouble is, if he dies in the job, he will go down in history as a covid martyr - even a Saint. If he lives, I doubt anyone will ever remember him at all.

He'll forever be associated with The Stolen Election of 2020, which will be studied by Political Science scholars for decades.

I'd like to think so, but history is written by the victors

Cornwall Marc's avatar

Don't forget the George W one with Al Gore! That one went right to the wire too. What will happen next time? Mind you, if it's a choice between Trump and Biden, it won't really matter.

The 2000 mules resent your comment :P!

Rascal Nick Of's avatar

If there’s any justice in the world he will be numbered among the worst US presidents of all time. Along with Wilson, Buchanan, Carter, and of course our current REAL president, Obama.

Cornwall Marc's avatar

Rascal, I think your list is a little short? What about Jan 6th Trump? And Geaorge W with his WMDs and Axis of Evil - he was an idiot. And don't forget Mr Clinton who was caught on the job with his pants down and went on to become one of paedo Jeffrey Epstein's besties...

Johnson has to be the worst ever. McNamara and Kennedy were trying to end the war in Vietnam before 60k soldiers were killed. Then Johnson gets in there and tasked McNamara with keeping the war going. What a stooge.

RLM RLM's avatar

I've always had a hunch he'd die and they'd blame covid

AL's avatar

Yup but then that would blow the vax thing out of the water.

Tori's avatar

*Never let a crisis go to waste*. Imagine how they can exploit his death ( by any means, even if they dispatch a fake MAGA-hatted bad guy, if they do it that way) for sympathy and capitalize on that and the ever-present *outrage*. If by covid, they can still turn the outrage to *Trump mishandled covid blah blah blah*. Whatever happens, you KNOW they are going to milk this to their benefit.

AL's avatar

Idk, Carter was so much more likable and is still remembered as the worst President in 100 years (except now, of course, for Biden). I don’t think he will be remembered well at all.

Ann Marie's avatar

Not a Carter fan, nor was I a supporter, however, the differences in our "2nd" worst president and our present one are really glaring:

.. Carter was a superior academic student

. U.S. Naval Academy graduate who served 10 years

. He had, and has real world work experience; understood independent small business (farming), to my knowledge, the family farming business was never under investigation for questionable practices

. In his post political life he engaged in useful volunteer work

Again, not in any way to "defend" his practices in office, compared to our present president, Carter was a stellar intellect (physics major I believe) , and my guess is, based only on observation since no one can see into a person's sole, but my guess is his spiritual foundation is genuine, not just a "window dressing" he changes from day to day depending on the political "winds". Not a Carter fan, but have to be fair when comparing IMHO.

Rascal Nick Of's avatar

Carter flailed about because of ideological convictions that hamstrung his ability to devise solutions to the problems of his day, in addition to fairly difficult issues beyond his control, but he actually did some decent things including losing his illusions about the Soviet Communists when they invaded Afghanistan that set stage for Reagan’s confrontations with them. Plus he didn’t seem as eager to destroy and enslave the middle class as Biden does. The Dem Party used to be ok with confronting Commies but now they are basically partners. https://townhall.com/tipsheet/spencerbrown/2022/07/21/house-dems-block-bill-to-ban-strategic-oil-sales-to-china-n2610580

I'd rather have Carter as president than Biden.

And I'm not talking about 1970s Jimmy Carter.

AngrySenior's avatar

Carter promoted the use of Ivermectin in 11 poor countries - over 160 million doses. You don't hear anything about that now! Then, he was hailed as a hero. It's still up on YT.

INGRID C DURDEN's avatar

I was not here in the Carter period. He seemed to be a very likable person, and I read some of his speeches he gave at his church, well done. May be he would have been a better minister than president. I was still young then and politics were about as interesting as a sore tooth.

Karen B's avatar

That's actually a good point, I don't know why Carter didn't come to mind first. It really is like 1977, in the worst way right now

Outsider's avatar

Carter was a much better president than those who succeeded him, with the exceptions of Reagan and Trump.

Karen B's avatar

Years from now, someone can do an American History Thesis paper, "Who was worse, Ulysses S Grant or Biden?"

Steven S. Lamb's avatar

Biden. Not even a contest

Jeremy Poynton's avatar

He can't even remember himself now...

Fig Newton's avatar

IMHO I don't think anyone is going to want to even mention him again when it's finally over....

YES! Ms. Parker, this Limey says, a GREAT American. My parents now, long gone, loved her and introduced me o her way back....

Tough week... first cancer, now covid.

TommyV's avatar

Slight correction...first dementia, then cancer and now COVID. Thank God he picked Paxlovid and not Ivermectin!! We need to appreciate these little blessings.

And...thank God he's married to a doctor LOL!

Maybe it was...first dementia, then...was I supposed to say cancer or covid, then...repeat statement.

The Covid vaxxes, that is.

Lorn's avatar

Let’s go COVID! I know I’m not supposed to say that 🤷‍♂️

Polynices's avatar

Back when COVID first hit and nobody knew how bad it would be, but there were some worrisome signs (and some fearmongering), I hoped that at least lots of our elderly politicians would die. A glorious silver lining to what could have been a very dark cloud. Turns out, no such luck. Killed old people, fat people, and unlucky people. Barely a single politician!

aj's avatar

they all got ivermectin thru the Congressional medical providers

Joe Doe's avatar

What can you figure out from all that? Maybe that covid was never such a big threat for anyone at all and most of the elders were KILLED in the hospitals due to the medical protocols.

Andrew P's avatar

Omicron is mild. It will disappoint.

Jim Marlowe's avatar

Unless you're in your 80s, suffering from dementia, have a history of brain aneurysms and take a complex cocktail of medication which likely includes stimulants and meds that have a "rebound" effect. It may be mild, but I wouldn't want to wager on a prognosis.

Common respiratory infections kill older folks all the time, they just never make a big deal about it.

Jim Marlowe's avatar

Yes, and we know he has difficulty swallowing, which is dysphagia. Having dysphagia significantly increases the risk of aspiration pneumonia. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31528251/

...but we can THINK it! Although...Kamala Harris ascending to prezzy...with possibly Gavin Newsome, Michelle 0bama as VP....any way you look at , or asy it, or think it...we are so effed.

AllieMarie777's avatar

Biden will come out and say he is so thankful for his vaccines.

Cindi's avatar

And probably say he let down his guard by taking off his mask & voila! Hello national mask mandates

I wish he would. That sound byte is only sounding more ridiculous each day.

Lon Guyland's avatar

Weird. His “avoiding the virus” defied the odds.

That statement somehow clashes with the concept of an effective vax.

eugyppius's avatar

and of masks and distancing and the rest of it mattering at all, lol

Rafael Kubelik's avatar

How will they know if he dies?

oana's avatar

Well, he allows his imaginary friends to get pretty close, and just can't resist to shake their hands ever so often. Maybe one of them gave it to him?

AllieMarie777's avatar

But schools/universities/colleges are still mandating the vaccine as are many businesses. The Washington DC school district just announced a vaccine mandate for their students. Make it make sense

Stacy Otto, fka Eudora's avatar

As J J Couey said last night on his [epic] cast, we have one month to wake parents up (before school starts). The stakes are tremendous....

Clever Pseudonym's avatar

i live near UCLA and the zombies are still shuffling around w their masks (in july in socal!) and soon they will be rolling up their sleeves for more mandated jabs...i can only attribute this level of docility to the fact (conjecture?) that since the students only experience life thru their phones 1) they will do anything their phones tell them to do as long as everyone else in their phone is doing the same; and 2) as long as they have their phones, u can do anything else u want to them.

in 21st century computer programs u!

AngrySenior's avatar

818 here. Same here.

Go online, or call as the L.A. Board of Supervisors Agenda is published - they want to sack Villanueva (elected position - unconstitutional) and they want to bring back masking, also. http://bos.lacounty.gov/LinkClick.aspx?fileticket=8k2Szkg9iAs%3D&portalid=1

ALSO - see change.org - there's a petition going to FIRE Ferrer. Help me spread the word.

https://www.change.org/p/los-angeles-county-board-of-supervisors-to-los-angeles-bos-fire-barbara-ferrer

IF you are not aware, Ferrer's daughter wrote the report (with some actual scientists) that changed the CDC guideline. Jennifer Van Laar broke the story. https://redstate.com/jenvanlaar/2022/07/20/study-cdc-relied-upon-for-school-mask-mandates-was-authored-by-la-county-public-health-directors-daughter-whos-also-not-an-md-n575405

JoeBiden is “the gift that keeps on giving”. No way do I want this buffoon gone before the mid-terms.

eugyppius's avatar

don't worry, chances he dies are pretty low. best would be another drawn-out paxlovid-enhanced experience like Fauci's, and then ideally (I am wishing for the world here) a reinfection within a few months.

Satan's Doorknob's avatar

Tend to concur. ~ 1 month ago I was offered Paxlovid for a mild case, my first that I know of. As I did not think I met the "high risk" category, as well that it was EUA and brought to you by Pfizer, I declined it, wisely I think. Later I found a study and while it trumpets that 90% (or whatever) "relative risk reduction," I did my own figuring using the provided statistics. Even for the control group, the hospitalization was (IIRC) 6.5% and deaths were 0.67%. Keep in mind that the study participants were selected as being at high risk. I concede the drug may have slightly improved outcomes, but it fails to address any downside (toxicity, side effects, etc.)

Andrew P's avatar

Hopefully, there will be a better strain circulating by the time he gets reinfected. Omicron is too mild to do us any good.

Juan's avatar

There is more to this story I humbly believe. They need to get people off the cancer comment yesterday and need to prepare for the midterms with more Covid hysteria.

maisyrusselswart's avatar

My former employer just announced a new mask mandate due to high case load. And they're vaxd and boosted to the hilt, so not everyone has moved on from The Plan.

Vanda Salvini's avatar

good to see it was a FORMER employer. hope you're good with that.

maisyrusselswart's avatar

I got fired for not complying with their mandate

aj's avatar

thank you exemplary courage......hope you are managing

maisyrusselswart's avatar

It forced me into a (possibly temporary) career change and was pretty rough, but managing

While I know little German, I lived there a few years, and am aware that it (and no doubt other languages), the sounds of letters is different, e.g. English "v" -> German "f"; "w"-> "v" ).

In Army I accustomed to Germans calling our "vodka" "wodka," but what confuses me is you and others do this in writing too?

Lincoln Microphone LLC's avatar

amazing, bless up and hope for a full recovery as the President should not be able to escape the crumbling narrative said individual tried to drop on the "unvaccinated" he deserves all the criticism of being wrong on vaccines that humans can muster, they lied, and are still lying. End the EUA.

Irina Metzler's avatar

Schadenfreude.

greensocks's avatar

In the AP article you link they say "The unvaccinated are at far greater risk, more than two times more likely to test positive and nine times more likely to die from the virus than those who have received at least a primary dose of the vaccines, according to the public health agency."

When was the last time the case rate for unvaccinated was higher than the vaccinated? A year ago? These people are such fucking liars.

Stanley Roper's avatar

Nobody bothers to think masks do anything but the Los Angeles county board of health that is

Dominik's avatar

The city of Vienna is enforcing their FFP2 (aka N95) mask mandate on public transportation via the police.

my cousin Roland lives in Vienna. They deserve this. hahahahhahaaa

He is totally buying it all

We certainly have a LOT of people buying into the propaganda.

beth02's avatar

Any thoughts on how Plaxovid might affect dementia drugs he might be on?

eugyppius's avatar

i would guess the answer is they won't, but what do I know

Julia's avatar

I can’t answer that (I’m sure these kinds of things were certainly studied prior to mass-inoculation) but I know it didn’t help Fauci much. He couldn’t clear the virus and I think did 3 rounds of plaxovid. We need Biden to stay healthy!

Cindi's avatar

I actually don’t think ANYTHING was studied prior to mass inoculation or we wouldn’t be having all of the vax’d getting sick, “adult death syndrome” & excess deaths all over the world & esp in countries w/ high vax compliance….

aj's avatar

I am still wondering why Fauci would have taken it, unless he knew it was slow motion suicide, and that was his choice

Cindi's avatar

AJ, at 1st I thought he was part of the Davos cool kid club but now I’m not so sure. I’m thinking more & more he is a true-believer-covidiot & the reason he got as sick as he did is because he’s been jabbed 4X. And then took another untested med in Paxlovid that I believe he admitted himself caused rebound. I could be wrong tho. Maybe he just got so sick because he’s in the vulnerable age bracket 🤷🏼‍♀️

Fear's avatar

He's not actually taking Paxlovid any more than he took the hot Pfizer loads.

Rosemary B's avatar

I am not sure what meds he is on at this time. Media certainly will not share.

Oh the leftists are so full of poison

I’ve heard fentanyl prices are falling, contrary to inflation, maybe a box of goodies for the junta’s fake inflatable sex-doll will help the crumbling republic.

Alex50's avatar

Supposedly one of the side effects of this new “variant” is lethargic behavior, so in other words there is no way to know if Biden is symptomatic.
