Why is there an anesthesiologist on the Orange Blob's team ...

[IggleDuer]

... was it in anticipation of intubation and putting him on the ventilator or was it to put him to sleep and shut him the f**k up?

[soothsayer]

1. Yeah that was an odd choice of dr to trot out

[onecaliberal]

2. He will help sedate if they have to intubate.

[spanone]

3. in trumpworld it's all optics...I'm sure he directed this entire BS session

from the white coats down

[Cirque du So-What]

4. Money is no object

They’ve probably got an OB/GYN on standby in case he gets grabby with the nurses.

[KewlKat]

5. Odd, but they can knock him out now and give the world some peace.

[Me.]

6. And Not Just 1 But 4 Pulmonary Specialists?

[IggleDuer]

9. These are a combination pulmonary and critical care specialists...

... They work in intensive care units. In effect the “White House medical unit” has become an ICU.

7. In case euthanasia is required?

[procon]

8. His condition might worsen and some sort of surgery

might be needed. I think its standard practice when there is a comprehensive medical team rather than just a primary care physician calling the shots... No pun intended.

10. its standard routine and nothing more

[LuvJoe]

11. I'll take both😎

[gollygee]

12. They'd have to have one ready

in case he gets put on a ventilator.

[IggleDuer]

13. Trust me, it's already there....

... probably more than one, in case the first one was made in Russia.

[Sunsky]

14. I think intubation is a likely choice

His respiratory status is compromised and I believe they're trying to prevent intubation because 1) He's POTUS and there are ramifications to this, especially a few days before a general election 2) The survival rate is lower after intubation.
This is the reason they're giving him various experimental therapies. However, if all else fails there is a team on standby. The more I hear, the more a believe his status is a cause for concern and they're trying to conceal it. Things aren't adding up.
