Fox News has announced that President Donald Trump will do his first on-air interview since being diagnosed with Covid-19 Friday night.

The interview will air at 8 PM on Tucker Carlson Tonight and will be conducted by Dr. Marc Siegel, who “will conduct a medical evaluation and interview during the program,” according to Fox News. It is not clear from the Fox News report if this interview will occur live on-air, but it will almost certainly be pre-taped earlier in the day.

1. We all know how that will turn out.

2. Will it be in person or virtual?

3. Virtual.

Trump will be on camera at the White House while Siegel will be in New York, speaking to the president via a remote, the network announced. It's unclear if the interview will be live or pre-taped. A pre-taped interview could be edited.

8. Good grief what a shit show.

9. You know how people slow down to stare at a car crash?

That's likely to be a chunk of the audience.

11. Piece of cake. Dr. Frist was able to examine Terri Schiavo at long distance

12. Senator Bill Frist did the same with Terry Schiavo....it didn't go well

14. Can they also do a polygraph exam?

15. If Trumpy were well or getting markedly better, he'd demonstrate his health all by himself.

He wouldn't need Siegel as a prop. He'd just hit the road and start doing rallies.

But he's being interviewed remotely and it will NOT be a live interview, it appears. So the observations that any viewer will utilize will be from an edited video of Trump, between his coughing and his respiratory issues. IOW, it's a PR stunt that is supposed to cast doubt on his devastating illness.

After nearly four years, Trump can't surprise all of us by a truthful revelation about anything, so we know that he's constructing a Potemkin medical frame. IT'S A VIDEO PRODUCTION!

16. Trump's twisted logic: 1. This will make me look tough, personally able to defeat Covid. 2. It will

show that coronavirus is no big deal and can be beaten. 3. It will make me look like I am at the forefront of finding a cure, unlike Joe Biden. 4. It will turn my negatives on the pandemic into a positive.

None of which will happen.
