I see many posts on social media about the state of the President’s health. Most of them are distrustful of the information coming out of the administration. These posts are mainly from the center-left of the political spectrum.
One group believes the President is faking his illness to gain sympathy and improve his political standing. They believe this because they don’t trust anything that comes out of the White House because he lies all the time.
The second group believes the administration is undermining the severity of his illness for political purposes because, you know, he lies all the time.
I’m in the second group. I believe he’s very ill.

It's certainly a serious business for someone of his age and physical condition to contract Covid-19. The Daily Mirror (UK) seems to think that things are very far from well over there!
EXCLUSIVE: Some US critics claim that he is desperate to seem better than he really is to avoid appearing weak in the run-up to the election on November 3

Either way he went back to the White House today. The one I read said he took his mask off when he got there.

l think he is infected with it and is trying to recuperate from it. l think he is lucky to have access with all possible treatment for him to not worry about the cost because it would all be charged to the government. l do think that this would not help him bolster his bid for the presidency since this will hamper him to be physically present in his campaign sorties. What he needs to project is a healthy candidate and not sickly one.

A humbling experience for such a pompous, high-headed, non-stop MAGA President.
His complete recovery, I suppose, has given all groups their answers to their questions-- if they are willing to hear and decide for themselves.
