How President Biden's advanced age, neurological issues, heart condition and past history of cancer all put the 79-year-old in the severe risk category for COVID
2022-07-22
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Buffoon in chief
  • President Joe Biden has tested positive for COVID-19, the White House confirmed on Thursday morning

  • Biden, 79, may be at an increased risk of severe infection because of his older age, neurological issues and high blood pressure

  • He has received four COVID-19 vaccine shots, though, and is being treated with Paxlovid - significantly reducing his risk from the virus

  • Omicron is a relatively mild strain of Covid as well - with the mortality rate of people currently infected significantly lower than previous variants

#18  Jessica Tarlov on The Five today said with a straight face that Biden is in better physical shape than Trump. When Gutfeld told her Trump plays a lot of golf she said she's watched golf and it doesn't look that strenuous.

#17  I know it takes at least a minimum level of intelligence to see the humor in situations. I believe the more intelligence you possess the more humor you will see and be able to appreciate. I wish I could invent snark the way many Rantburgers do. But, if I was a Democrat, I'd be going around with a sour expression on my face all day every day.

No, if anything, it shows you're a very intelligent person!

#15  Mrs. Uluque rebuked me when I heard that Brandon has covid and I laughed out loud. I couldn't help it. Does that make me a bad person?

#14  The same people will be pulling the strings whether he is there or not. The unelected replacement will just be replacing an unelected president.

#12  Well. Joe is ineffective. Do you think an unelected replacement will be any better? Prolly not...

#9  ^ Said the same thing to Mrs. Warthog yesterday. Double benefits is to use the narrative of a fallen President due to COVID as a new ploy to push the vax.

#8  Go ahead and take the off-ramp. It's time.

#7  There's an opportunity here for the Joe dumpers - maybe he takes a turn for the worst and has to retire for health reasons.
