The president of United States, Donald trump, resumed his campaign this Friday, despite doubts about his recovery after being hospitalized for covid-19, in search of shortening his disadvantage in the polls against the Democratic candidate Joe Biden.
25 days before the November 3 elections, Trump claimed that the experimental treatment they administered “is a cure.” for the new coronavirus and announced two public events, one on Saturday in Washington and another in Florida on Monday.
“I can tell you it is a cure,” he said on the radio show of Rush Limbaugh, a famous right-wing broadcaster, referring to the Regeneron antibody cocktail he took.
The president stated that the treatment is “better than a vaccine” against this virus, which has left more than 212,000 deaths in the country, more than anywhere else in the world.
The health of Trump – 74 years old – continues to raise questions, despite the statements of his doctors and his attempts to go back on the campaign and leave the quarantine behind.
Life-threatening?
Adding to the pressure of the campaign is the fact that the Democrats who control the House of Representatives proposed creating a panel to evaluate the ability of presidents to govern.
The leader of the Lower House, Democrat Nancy Pelosi, said the bill “is not about President Trump” who “will face the judgment of the voters.” “But it shows the need to create a process for future presidents,” he added.
It is time to analyze your “dissociation from reality.”
In the interview with Limbaugh, Trump first suggested that he had been close to death, if not for the treatment.
“Thanks to that I’m talking to you today,” he said after referring to a friend of his who died of covid-19.
The president said that later the doctors told him that “he was entering a very bad phase.” “You know what that means,” he said.
On Thursday his doctor, Sean Conley, announced that from Saturday Trump will be able to return to his “public commitments”, “safely.”
His campaign announced that he plans to travel to Florida on Monday and a senior official indicated that he will organize an event on Saturday in the White House garden, in which he will keep distance from the public speaking from a balcony.
A live “medical evaluation”
Trump spent three nights hospitalized last weekend after catching Covid-19.
His attitude to the disease and his management of the pandemic are criticized by his opponents, in view of the death toll and the virus-induced economic crisis that left millions unemployed.
His state of health generates skepticism since doctors have not published key data, including a precise explanation of when he was infected and when he was subjected to the last coronavirus test and if it was negative.
Information that is public, such as the fact that he was treated with steroids, suggests that his viral picture may have been severe at first, raising questions about whether he needs to spend more time in quarantine.
“He is ready to go. He wants to speak to the American people, ”his press secretary, Kayleigh McEnany, told Fox News.
On Thursday, Trump appeared by phone in programs of this conservative media group and this Friday he plans to participate in the Tucker Carlson evening program.
The network indicated that he will undergo a live “medical evaluation”, carried out remotely by the doctor Marc Siegel, who is a regular presence on Fox News.
With the campaign in the final stretch, many thought Trump was going to use one of the three debates to try to deliver a late but definitive blow to Biden, but this possibility is also being twisted.
According to polls, his tense attitude and constant interruptions in the first debate held in Cleveland on Sept. 29 reduced his support.
While, the second debate scheduled for next Thursday in Miami, Florida, was canceled by the commission in charge of organizing these meetings.
After the contagion of the US president with the coronavirus, the committee decided that the debate should take place virtually, something that Trump flatly rejected.
This would leave him only one last chance to debate Biden on television on October 22.
