#6 Is it odd that the infected from the debate seem to be from one
political party so far? If you wanted to disrupt the Presidential campaign and put the ACB confirmation at risk by incapacitated Senators, could you do it any better than this?
Just hate coincidences that have a clear benefit and providential timing.

#8 If Trump received oxygen, he isn't experiencing a "mild" form of COVID-19. Which means he'll battle fatigue for months on end. Forget about campaigning.

I have no idea what this means for the elections.

#9 Don't try. It's the Daily Mail, which is starting to make Weekly World News look professional

#10 ^ dream on

He'll be fine and back on the trail with plenty of time left to put the boot into his pansy-puppet opponent.

Turnout will decide the election. The last 2-3 weeks of the campaign determine the degree of turnout.

Republicans have registered 10x as many new voters this year in the battleground states as Democrats have. This is true especially in Pennsylvania, also pronounced in Florida. And yet none of this massive registration / turnout advantage is reflected in the polls-- none of it. Ergo the polls are entirely useless, and underestimate Trump's likely share of the vote by anywhere from 5 to 10 points, depending on the geographic area sampled.

It would be incredibly foolish in any year, but especially in 2020, to think that today's news is in any way a good predictor of what will happen a month later on Election Day. The really important indicator is new voter registration data.

#11 If the Daily Mail does a story on Bat Boy, then I know we're in trouble.
