Now is Trump’s time
WASHINGTON DC (VG) Donald Trump has made the White House a hotbed of infection. You lack money. And rattles like a disturbed man.
This is a comment. The comment expresses the attitude of the writer.
Trump sinks like a stone in the polls. There are many signs that your campaign is having financial problems. They’ve pulled millions of dollars of pre-ordered TV commercials in top tip states. Challenger Joe Biden appears to be making more money in these crucial past weeks.
In many ways, we’ve gotten used to Trump’s erratic outbursts and shocking remarks. It has created a new low target for what a head of state can do in a democracy. A kind of immunity to insanity. A protection that allows us to continue to sleep at night, despite the fact that our closest ally is constantly trembling at the fragile world order that has existed in the years since World War II.
Not out of the woods
But this week has taken us to a new level. After Donald Trump left Walter Reed Hospital on Monday night, after just three days in the hospital, he seemed completely unbalanced. Those who had hoped that the experience of his own illness would give him more compassion for the millions of Americans who have been ill, or the many who have lost one of their own, were disappointed. On the contrary. Trump’s message is that the disease is not serious, that infection control is not important, and that he is a superman who does not bite.
Trump’s own infection control expert Anthony Fauci says the president is not out of the woods just yet. You can become seriously ill again. So is this disease. There is widespread agreement among medical experts that it is impossible to establish with certainty that Trump is no longer a carrier, despite Trump himself claiming that he is now free of infection.
Krakilsk and untamed
The only chance that Trump may not be able to infect others now is that he has been ill for much longer than we know. The White House will not say when was the last time you took a negative covid test – that is, when you were last healthy. If it’s been a long time, and Trump has been ill for a long time before the public found out, he has indeed posed a danger to the people he has known, for a long time.

Trump has seemed even more sizzling and tame this past week. He has described Democratic vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris as “a monster”, still has his tirades against Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, has more than hinted that his own attorney general is part of an anti-Trump conspiracy, and has criticized the FBI. the boss for ignoring electoral fraud. On top of everything, he says that covid is not dangerous, while continuing to mess up infection control measures.
Even one of his closest supporters, Senate Leader Mitch McConnell, has criticized the White House’s infection control. He has stated that he has not been in the White House since Aug. 6, because he believed that infection control was not good enough. In other words, one of Trump’s closest supporters has not ventured near the president’s office because he feared infection.
Trump does what he pleases
Who dares to stop it? No. Doctors let him out of the hospital after three days, surrounded by people without any infection control equipment other than a simple mask. According to the Norwegian Communicable Disease Act, someone who behaved in this way would likely have been arrested, at least in solitary confinement.
But Trump is president. He does what he pleases. And he said that already today Saturday he will hit the road again. Then we’ll see if anyone can stop it. Or if the president of the United States travels again, with the risk involved as a carrier. Both for those you know and for those who will protect you.

Many in your security apparatus are anxious about the infection. Naturally. These are people who have vowed to take a bullet for the President of the United States. They know that they must throw themselves in front of the president if he is attacked, they must die if it is necessary for him to live.
In debt to strangers
But now it is the president who puts their lives in danger. The bullet, in the form of a corona infection, comes from the president himself. Against the people who will protect you. Anyone who invented something like that in a novel just a few years ago had been dismissed as unrealistic. Today, this is a reality.
The reality can be even worse than what we see. One question that has arisen is whether powerful and unknown actors have hidden control over the president of the United States. The New York Times recently reviewed Trump’s fiscal situation and parts of his private finances. According to the newspaper, it has a debt of almost 4 billion crowns, which matures in the next four years. The world doesn’t know who you owe money to. It is in itself a security risk that the most powerful man in the world is deeply in debt to someone we don’t know who he is.
There has long been cause for concern about the situation in the United States. This week, the unrest has not abated. The hope is that Joe Biden appears ready to win the election. But there are still more than three weeks left. If these last four years have taught us anything, it is that anything can happen.
