Why are some posting conspiracies theories as if we were them ? Use common sense. Trump has COVID.
Think for a second how many people it would involve to fake that especially when this administration has been known to leak like a sieve.

Besides, it's the most appropriate thing to happen to him his entire administration.

(25,471 posts)A lot of the conspiracy theories are doom-and-gloom scenarios. Trump is faking so he can make a huge comeback, etc.

(115,683 posts)The only surprise is that he didn't get it sooner. And a conspiracy of the sort posed here would involve a whole bunch of people in the administration, many of whom are too galactically stupid to organize a picnic in the park. And the other thing about conspiracies is that they are uncovered eventually because inevitably somebody talks - and everybody talks in Trumpworld.

JPR does seem to believe Trump has covid though.

Trump is no evil genius. Michael Moore thinks Trump is faking it because he still buys into the evil genius nonsense.

(26,500 posts)people that this whole week has been planned to a 'T' by JFK Jr. (he's totally alive BTW)? And Trump's just faking his diagnosis in order to infiltrate the child sex ring at Walter Reed's basement..... Really?!

(1,301 posts)I dont question that he has the Corona virus, but I do question when he actually found out about it. It seems reasonable that if he stayed asymptomatic, they would never have released the information.
Do I believe that 100%? Of course not, but I do believe it to be a plausible scenario.
drray23
(7,627 posts)there is no doubt Trump and his ilk are not telling us the whole truth and will try to spin it to their advantage.
MoonchildCA
(1,301 posts)Because we are not sure its true, its a theory.
Amiright?

(73,537 posts)I've had a couple intelligent people I know express conspiracy theories about this today. Come to think of it, three people. I gently ask them to apply rational thought instead.
