    They will both get plasma antibodies, a non issue.
    Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

    About 5.4% of people infected over 70 die from it.

    However, Trump has a much less than 5.4% chance of dying. These reasons include:

    1) He isn't showing symptoms yet, from what we can tell.

    2) His health is not bad. Many people over 70 who die from COVID have major, noticeable health issues.

    3) He is not that much over 70. The "over 70" group includes people over 80 and 90, too, and they die at a higher rate.

    4) He will get the very top level care, and will be monitored constantly.


    Now, if it's destined that COVID ravages his body and attacks him badly, there's not much that can be done at this point. But as I said, the chances are fairly low. As has already been mentioned, if he recovers from it and appears healthy again, this could hep his reelection chances.

    Trump will likely be fine yes but he’s probably in isolation now for at least two weeks. When was the next debate? Screws up his rallies..... his supporters are confused.... many tweeting it’s fake and trump is being tricked....

    Guy was literally making fun of Biden for wearing mask and within 48 hours he is positive.

    Also props to plol for playing this perfectly.

    Donald Trump is 74 years old and suffers from obesity and possibly other health problems.

    He may have no symptoms right now but that could change in a few weeks.

    Are people going to vote for an infected zombie clown for President?

    Not this time. Game. Set. Match.

    I don’t think we should be underestimating the enthusiasm gap. Trump’s base may not hate biden, but they absolutely worship trump like nothing we have ever seen before.

    100% of them will be voting
    It's off the charts everywhere I've been around the South and Midwest. Missouri where I'm at now is somewhat of a swing state, for example, and public Trump support is probably 100 to 1 here over Biden. Normally we would be talking about a landslide victory with this level of enthusiasm, but I personally think it speaks more to scary levels of Balkanization than a hidden number of Trump voters this time. He has lost the centrist boomer vote and sensible boomer Republican vote. I wouldn't be that shocked if he wins, but the numbers just aren't there. The national polls are tightening, but the state polls have weirdly gotten worse for him.

He's polling way behind his 2016 numbers with seniors in particular, coronavirus.

    The tweet below is why I think this honestly could be a "work". I didn't feel like explaining why I personally thought he blew the election, but he wasted months and hundreds of millions of dollars campaigning on attacking Biden himself, when it's not really Biden he's running against. Biden just happens to be the other choice. Biden has no real platform outside of not being Trump.

    Team Trump should have been campaigning on the virus full force, particularly what they are going to do to solve the pandemic, while simultaneously forcing the issue that the Democrats would, and actually will, continue to enforce the wildly unpopular lockdowns wherever possible. That's how he could have possibly kept the boomer vote and won over enough of the middle to win the election. Even the rioting issues have taken a backseat to personal attacks on Biden. All of the MAGA types that work as free advertising for him are parroting the attacks on "sleepy Joe" when they could have been building fear of economic collapse from the lockdowns and fear of the riots coming to the suburbs.

    His campaign team this time has been awful. No one apparently gives a shit about Joe Biden, his character, and likely dementia. They could have ran Hillary again and I believe she would have won against their failed strategy.

    So what are the overreaction plays on PredictIt? Harris $.05 seems like an overreaction right?

    Harris is definitely an easy sell, just be careful not to have open orders for very long. I think the markets are mostly settled down in regards to 'overreactions'. Pence to run went to 24, now it's back to 10. I wouldn't be selling at 10 right now, I don't think that's an overreaction.

    President Trump is said to have developed a cough and fever per two Republicans in close contact to the White House; POTUS skipped a phone conference at 12:15, only item on the schedule today.

    President Trump plans to tap VP Pence for duties to run United States if symptoms worsen.

    At 74 years old, the president is five times more likely to be hospitalized from the virus and 90 times more likely to die than a patient in their 20s, CDC figures show.
