1. When asked if trump received O2 on Sat. Conley said he would have to check with

his nursing staff. Really, he doesn't know - Bullshit. I bet trump was on O2 most of Saturday. And yeah, it sure does sound like he has pneumonia.

4. Many times doctors will have standing orders for oxygen for patients that need it

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.

13. Exactly. This patient is POTUS

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.

2. TBF imaging could just show infiltrates which could be associated with congestion or pneumonia.

Some expected findings is as vague as possible. Yes-we saw two lungs.

5. He was able to be upright long enough to perform before the camera Sat.

Same with the photo op.

No way in hell he’s sufficiently recovered from this to be discharged. He would be a true medical marvel, given all his other problems. Dumbass doesn’t even realize he’s putting his life (and others’) at risk.

Oops, I forgot. He’s immortal.

6. Well, come on. Let's at least hear the rest of it.

The OP's recording ends at "There’s some expected findings but..."

On a longer recording (below), what he said is "There’s 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.

7. I just haven't been hanging on every minute of this Walter Reid shitshow

Somewhat off topic.

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.

8. I believe absolutely that when Trump looks in the mirror, he doesn't see what the rest of us see.

Prized physical attractiveness above eveything else. Expalins so much with this one. Grossly superficial.
