Trump being admitted to Walter Reed Medical Center

[Frederick Foresight]

All I am saying is that we have a man who said he wasn't able to see his father because of COVID, but the President can do an activity that Presidents tend to do (drive in a motorcade to see their fans in an election year) and that's wrong. Yet people can have the public viewing of RBG and its just fine - so long as everyone there wears a mask. But the President can't do what he did, even wearing a mask because he is putting people at risk.

Either its all right, or its all wrong.

Come on. El OchoCinco explained why the man could not see his father. Nuff said.

As for comparing RBG's visitation with Trump's conduct, again, come on. People who are exhibiting symptoms are told to stay home. The honor system. Let's hope everyone who was there and wore masks avoided close contact with one another, and did not share tightly enclosed spaces. Because that is what the CDC said they should not do. As for Trump forcing his Secret Service agents to UNNECESSARILY be in a confined space with him, when he had the virus and was/is contagious? Where's his honor? And when he took off his mask before he went into the White House, and further exposed his staff to UNNECESSARY risk? Again, where is his honor?

You are using very blunt crayons to draw your comparisons.

I'm not arguing that hospitals should have restricted people or shouldn't have. I'm just pointing to the double standards running rampant.

Guy can't see his father in hospital, so guy rants about Trump taking drive. But same guy has no problem with RBG funeral. You tell me RBG funeral was fine because people wore masks. But guy in hospital could have wore masks. Trump wore a mask in the car. Then you say hospitals couldn't have people coming in constantly because they'd need to wash all the surfaces repeatedly (they do) and having family members restricted makes sense.

So guy couldn't see his family because of restrictions that make sense, but the President of the United States can't take a ride in his car, sealed in and wearing a mask because it doesn't make sense.

And I'm the one arguing for the sake of arguing.

So you don't see the difference between Trump...someone with COVID where everyone who has it has to quarantine and not go out in the public and..

never mind...the person whose father's died of COVID followed the rules, Trump makes up his own.

RBG funeral does not involve any infected COVID patients and small gatherings are allowed.

 

[El OchoCinco]

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, those with mild to moderate symptoms of COVID-19 can be contagious for as many — and should isolate for at least — 10 days.

 

[El OchoCinco]

He entered the White House, where aides were visible milling about the Blue Room, without wearing a face covering.

why is it an agent's family members can't protect themselves?

I find it reckless when the high risk are out an about thinking masks are going to protect them? I know quite a few taking chances.

Why are the high risk still dying. Many of them are being reckless... no?

Mask stop the spread of Covid, not the contraction of Covid.

If my 13 year old can understand this and do a PowerPoint on it then so can you. All you have to do is try a little bit. It doesn’t even take much effort.

 

[El OchoCinco]

But a funeral with no known infected people all wearing masks and for the most part spreading apart is the same thing as a fucktard with known COVID walking around his job with no mask...

So if one of the brain washed workers takes that COVID home and their relative dies will they come out and say "We were quite irresponsible when all we had to do is isolate, wear masks and separate from the President."

I know someone that broke quarantine on Day 9 of self-quarantine and didn't wear a face mask...went to a new job site and infected 5 employees...one of which needed to be hospitalized and 15 days later was on life support.

Covid-19 is like a Ninja.

In my opinion...the guy that broke quarantine should be arrested and charged with assault. The family of the person on life support has already filed a lawsuit.

No, it isn't "nuff said." I put forth a rebuttal, which you are welcome to take on if you wish, or we can wait for El Ocho to reply.

Just because you don't like my comparisons or don't agree with them does not make them "blunt". Secret service agents have a job that is about risk. They could - at any time - catch a bullet in defense of the President. That is the job they signed up for. Saying we should suddenly concern ourselves for the risk of the agent in the car from a virus they have a nearly zero chance of dying from simply because the President did what Presidents do (and drive around to see supporters) while at the same time saying it is OK for everyone to go see RBG's funeral simply because they are wearing a mask is completely and totally incompatible and inconsistent.

That you know of. That's the whole point. The man who couldn't see his father didn't have COVID that we know of either. So why couldn't he go into the hospital to see his dad?

The people at the funeral could have had COVID. Did they all get a test 24 hours before arriving?

 

[El OchoCinco]

The rebuttal is Trump is an infected COVID patient, the rules for him and the guy who cannot see his father SHOULD BE THE SAME. That means not going back to work in a few days and taking off his mask. Trump's job did not require him to leave his quarantine to do a drive by..that was just vanity.

The funeral was done under current COVID/CDC requirements of masks and trying to keep social distance. a major political figure died and even lyign in state CDC protocols were followed.

99% of the people here see the difference.....
