It doesn't matter if it is true or not. We can't sit here and speculate on the legitimacy of if it is true. This is a national security risk. We are nothing but confused people sitting at our computers or on our phones trying to decide if it is true...

Either way...debates don't matter, none of that shit matters. The focus has changed now...we should be thinking about our security as a country. If it not true, then we know that Putin has a heavy hand in this. We have been weakened. We are actually vulnerable to attack. Our infrastructure is at risk, either physically or via cyber attacks.

If it is true, we need to focus on:

1) Hoping VP Biden does not get it
2) Making sure that VP Biden wins the election

Nothing else matters. Instead of sitting here arguing, we should place the focus where it needs to be.

1. Well said.

[BootinUp]

2. The pre conspiracy threads are going to

be the only ones getting replies

[Joinfortmill]

3. Pelosi should quarantine Doc says.

If Pence gets it, she's the President.

[Laffy Kat]

7. I just posted that, too.

God keep her safe.

[cwydro]

10. I think they'd have to die or be damn sick.

Not everyone dies from this disease.

[Withywindle]

25. Just P and VP being sick isn't enough for her to legally take over

It's only if they both die or are extremely incapacitated.


But she absolutely should quarantine, just on risk of having possibly been exposed.

[underpants]

4. It's true.

They couldn’t get caught lying about this and survive. Hold it, this is the GOP. Never mind what I said.

[Laffy Kat]

5. Nancy Pelosi is next in line if Pence becomes ill.

I sure hope she is isolating herself and taking every precaution. Truth is, I would feel much, much safer with Pelosi at the helm.

[LisaL]

9. Pence has to die and not just become ill for Pelosi to be next.

[Laffy Kat]

17. But what if both the POTUS and VPOTUS are both put on ventilators?

I know this is wishful thinking on my part, but who would lead?

[lostnfound]

22. Pelosi. Nt

[lostnfound]

23. Pelosi. Nt

[elevator]

6. Sure we can speculate and I for one am not confused.

The focus has not changed. Most people here have been hoping Biden would not get the virus. We have been focusing on the security of our country. We are at the same amount of risk we were at before this news.

[LuckyCharms]

13. Really? Go look at all the posts cheering this event on

without thinking through the ramifications.

[BannonsLiver]

8. Do you think Putin is going to invade?

I think in that case having Trump sidelined would be a net plus.

[LuckyCharms]

11. Physically? Not likely, but possible.

All other forms of attack including cyber? Absolutely.

[LisaL]

14. Putin is not going to "physically invade."

How in the world would he do it? His interests are territories around Russia.

[LuckyCharms]

16. We know nothing really about his interests.

[Hekate]

28. Putin is positioned to "win" without firing a shot. He has propaganda & disinfo on social media...

He has hackers meddling in all 50 states. He has US Senators & Congressmen in his pocket. He has the POTUS, for the love of God. He knows our electronic voting systems. He knows our national electronic infrastructure.

At this point, missiles are for amateurs — they’re very expensive & they leave a mess.

I don’t think he necessarily wants our US territory as such. What he wants is to destabilize Western democracies into bickering little countries that can’t unite to oppose him.He wants the US weakened and irrelevant. He wants NATO gone. He wants the USSR back, under a modern name.

Trump is the most useful idiot in the entire history of useful idiots, but the groundwork was laid by men like Mitch McConnell long before he showed up in DC.

Well, it’s 2am here, so I think I better put the tablet away and try to sleep, having already had my nightmare, so to speak.

[texasfiddler]

12. We move forward

-If this a conspiracy, it is stupid politically for trump. -if it is real it shows how stupid he is. Biden should get tested negative and keep campaigning.

[Ohio Joe]

15. Correct...

K&R

[torius]

18. He's ALREADY a national security risk

If he gets sick then it would be harder for him to give away US secrets.

[yonder]

19. Good words, sir.

[yuiyoshida]

20. Biden maybe Running against a very sick Mike Pence

or Nancy Peolsi will get the job, after Pence and Trump is buried.

[lostnfound]

24. Buried or on ventilators. That would still necessitate succession. Nt

[yuiyoshida]

27. I wonder if there would even be an election

If both Trump and Pence are burried? who would run against Biden Harris? Win by default?

[proud patriot]

21. agreed

100%

26. This will not end well, regardless of how covid effects tRump. if he's lucky, and we know he is,

he will garner sympathy votes, we know he will have the best treatments money can buy plus I would bet he and his spawn have been on plasma or other therapies to build up their immune system. If he's hit hard Pence will take over responsibilities and we may see a major election disruption, postponement. If he ends up in a hospital or dies Pence will be president, not sure if that voids votes so far as the ticket changes, Pence would be a harder candidate to beat, many of the right who were disgusted with tRump will vote for pence.
