Quite a few major political and public figures have gotten it and almost none have died.

[BlueStater]

Herman Cain being the obvious exception, of course.

Rand Paul has had it. Louie Gohmert (who is 67) has had it. Junior’s girlfriend has had it. All have recovered. Anyone else I’m missing?

Even with Trump’s age and obesity being a heavy (pun not intended) factor, it’s hard for me to envision that he’ll actually succumb to it...assuming he actually has it at all. For some reason, it hasn’t seemed to have killed too many famous people.

[Ferrets are Cool]

1. IE: rich people or people with outstanding health care

[beachbumbob]

2. most famous people take precautions

[Merlot]

10. They don't need to go to work at the grocery store.

[BannonsLiver]

3. We can't predict the future.

[PTWB]

4. You're right that he will most likely be fine.

The odds, even considering his morbid obesity, horrible diet and extreme age - the odds are still good that he will be fine. He has the best medical care in the world at his disposal and access to any and every treatment no matter the cost.

My thoughts and prayers are with the virus.

[frazzled]

5. I hope he does survive

If only because of the chaos it would cause for the election. But (and may I be absolved from this hateful thought in advance, even after promising to be better just days ago on Yom Kippur), I do hope he suffers greatly in the meantime. Perhaps it would be a form of enlightenment for him. Oh, forget about it.

[subterranean]

9. That's pretty much how I feel.

I want him to survive at least long enough to lose the election.

"Perhaps it would be a form of enlightenment for him." That's a good one!

[bigtree]

6. we're seeing reports of symptoms, POTUS has cough and fever

...if it was less they'd say even less.

This is serious enough for them to come up with equivocations, but it belies a more serious reality.

7. Boris Johnson

Very Sick

[octoberlib]

20. Yep. I believe I read that if his oxygen saturation had gotten

even a tiny bit lower he would have been on a ventilator.

[Laelth]

8. Yes. It is likely that he will survive. Most do.

But remember that Boris Johnson was in the hospital for weeks after he came down with COVID-19. This could mean that the Trump 2020 election campaign is over. It depends upon the severity of Trump’s infection.

We shall see what we see.

[LeftInTX]

13. I just thought of Johnson's color..LOL

Trump will stay in hiding if his color turns like Johnson's

[Mossfern]

14. Boris Johnson

is much younger than Trump.

[LeftInTX]

11. Wilbur Ross had it. He's 82

Ross has never looked particularly healthy either

[cwydro]

12. Bolsonaro, Boris Johnson, the Rock, Tom Hanks and wife, numerous other celebrities.

Boris had a rough go of it.

[Mossfern]

15. What type blood does Trump have?

[uponit7771]

16. Trump is on lower end of healthy relative to the other rich people with good doctors who've got it

[asiliveandbreathe]

17. 200,000+ have died..that is where I am at..what the hell is wrong with this picture..

And then I read the flotus "says" she too test positive..excuse me, considering they only wheel her out for a glam shot..only to show a pout!!!!!!

[cwydro]

18. She was at the debate.

[Quixote1818]

19. Better chance he just gets really sick for a while and maybe ends up on the hospital for a bit. nt

[SoonerPride]

21. Seems like rona is due for a win, then.

Amirite?

[Baclava]

22. Lord Vishnu and I had a talk today, something about Karma, for mortals, its a thing

[Midnight Writer]

23. The amount of exposure is also a factor. How much virus was introduced into his body?

A small amount in a brief time may elicit milder symptoms then a massive amount over an extended amount of time.
