This pales in comparison to the other mindless stuff he's pulled. Unfortunately, he is putting a whole lot of people in peril, along with him.

8. This sack of shit isn't deserving of the support structure that Hospice provides...

The compassion and support that Hospice offers their patients and families is far too kind for what this shit bag deserves...

10. He looks awful,... they should have shipped the body to the funeral home.

A full dose of embalming fluid looks like it would do him a lot of good.

11. That silence you hear from his Doctors is the statement of his condition.

He couldn't order them to tell a lie so he ordered them to say nothing. They are complying with his wishes.

The Dorito Mussolini walked out of Walter Reed without his Doctor's consent.

Now, the rest of us wouldn't be readmitted, but, he will.

12. No, my guess is he left against medical advice.

His medical status at the time prevented them from legally detaining him and they probably could not justify a psych hold. Of course they are not able to tell us this. The Doctor could have refused to say anything at all and faced military discipline which IMO would have been the more Patriotic course. Perhaps the consensus was evasive info was better than none which could have caused greater panic in the public. Who knows. At some point it is out of the hands of the medical providers and they have to just give in to the patients wishes. Give him what he wants and he has to accept the consequences....

but as far as I know, unless someone is at the very end stage of Covid there isn't really a terminal pronouncement.

He is the one who demanded to be let out of there.

He wanted to get out of the hospital and they had no choice but to let him go. You can't keep a person in the hospital against their will.

And for the rest of his days has to reflect on his rejection by the American voters and haunted by the damage he has done to those voters... or at least is forced to face his failures.

Is it possible that he's dying
Yes, very possible.

was released to hospice at home?
This, too, is quite likely, though he probably doesn't know it yet.

Maybe the doctors wanted him to enjoy his last few weeks or days?
More like the doctors will enjoy the next few weeks or days without having to deal with a vicious, demanding, loud, and childish patient.
