(66,462 posts)Incapacitated implies that he was previously operating on some level physical or mental capacity.
He's the most physically and mentally inert person on the planet...

(6,823 posts)To me, knowing what a germophobe he is, it is the only thing that explains his behavior and attitude. My guess is, he has antibodies,and this is one thing he is keeping his mouth shut about. A reporter really should ask McNinny.

(10,243 posts)Trump would tweet encouragement to his MAGATs from his hospital bed, urging revolt. QAnon would promote a bunch of new conspiracy theories. Barr would launch another investigation into the previous administration. It would be a shitstorm.

(5,790 posts)He might be asymptomatic or get a mild case, but if he gets it - or even if he imagines he got it, he will drop out. After the election, he will re-emerge, start TrumpTV, and tell anyone who will listen that he'd have certainly won, but the damn Wuhan virus got him.
