(9,173 posts)and nurses will apply it as needed without notifying doctor--but if a patient needed it (due to comfort or desaturation) it would be charted. There's no way the world's most famous patient's every burp, fart and sneeze isn't being watched obsessively by his team. Trump's doctor is a fucking liar, trying to give the impression that he's not that concerned with Trump's oxygen use.

(1,876 posts)It is not like he has 20 patients to deal with. He has one very important patient, he knows everything. EVERYONE who works with the president is dotting all i's and crossing all t's because if POTUS should die on your watch, you will have to give account for all steps taken.

No way in hell hes sufficiently recovered from this to be discharged. He would be a true medical marvel, given all his other problems. Dumbass doesnt even realize hes putting his life (and others) at risk.
Oops, I forgot. Hes immortal.

On a longer recording (below), what he said is "Theres some expected findings but nothing of any major clinical concern." (at 6:04)
Sounds like there is indeed some lung involvement, as that would be expected. To call it "damage" might be a stretch.

First time I've seen Conley.
Good-looking, white, youngish physician. Parallels Kaleigh McEnany over at the WH. Everyone speaking for the president looks like they're from central casting.
Do you think on some level Trump thinks of himself as 30-ish and still in his prime? Tries soooooooo hard to project his own youthful energy (HA!) by surrounding himself with those who are.
