When Trump beats this inside of 10 days, will it help or hurt his election chances?

COVID cases are up around the world, but deaths are down.

Take, Spain, for instance: Back on March 26th, they had 745 deaths with a daily new case increase that day of 9,159, or 8% mortality rate. On September 18th, 90 deaths with a current daily new case load of 14,389, or .6% rate.

It seems like we are treating it early and driving the mortality rate down significantly around the world. So, when Trump emerges from this, how much does this help (or hurt) him moving forward?

Help. "No one is better to lead the fight against Covid than someone who has had it!"

Can we please wait for the man to be healthy again and THEN speculate on what will happen politically? A little less speculation and a lot more prayer are in order right now.

The "mortality rate" based on deaths over those tested is bullshite. Spain wasn't testing nearly as much in March so the denominator was lower.

There is no reason to believe it is 13x "less deadly" in Spain now vs. in March

The images are powerful.

Rally around the flag effect.

The nasty deranged people in the Democrat party and media will help Trump if they cannot control themselves.

Always potential for new surprises and I'd count on them happening.

How does this WH outbreak unfold?

What a time to be alive.

But if the numbers are there to show that it's not as deadly as people believe, why not use it?

Hurt because it shows, in full irony, the full impact of his negligence and attitude. Timeline of recovery doesn't matter. He mocked Biden for wearing a mask all the time 2 days prior.

It's going to help big time. More and more people are tuning out the Covid shite. When this overweight 74 year old man beats this thing a lot more people are going to say, "it doesn't really seem as serious as everyone has told me. The news just spent the last week telling me this was so serious we may need to remove POTUS from office."

The left has gone brain dead. They have graduated from shooting themselves in the foot and now have the gun pointed at their groin.

Excuse me?

What evidence is there that this has anything to do with a damn mask?

It would be interesting to know if all this is planned/choreographed. If Trump dies...that theory is out.

If a quick recovery...it'll help. And relieve the fears of a lot of our citizenry.

Amen! Geez, there are so many manly men posting on here like hysterical school girls. Glad there is at least one sane, calm voice...and from a woman!

Sack up, guys, you're embarrassing the male species.

Of course it’s less deadly. Natural evolution of a virus, a lot less deadly but more contagious. People acted like they never heard of a virus, this isn’t the first virus to ever exits.

The only thing showing right now is the Left’s abhorrent and despicable behavior while the President of the United States (that includes everyone in the country btw) visits the hospital after having contracted a foreign born virus, which has already decimated populations across the globe, despite what you may or may not think of Trump’s responsiveness. He is the President.

Think about the ramifications there will be should this situation escalate and the Left is seen dancing on the grave of the President. I’m not one for violence, but as someone who supports the President, and more broadly, the Office of the President, that image in my head is sickening, but even more so because we are already seeing the preview to it demonstrated on Twitter. Should Biden become President afterwards, China would gain full control of the global economic steering wheel, as the Right weeps, and the Left rejoices.

At that point we would enter into a total and complete era of tribalism. It would come as no surprise to me that in order to preserve this country, both a civil and a world war would come to fruition. Humanity does not need this.
