Probably faking it. Next week he is cured and can say "told you so".

Exactly my thoughts, it's more political than anything else. But if it's true, then I"m not saying anything because we all know why - all that crap he had said earlier in the pandemic has come back to burn him.

This might be the game changer.

Going to fill the news cycle for a few weeks. And he can't go anywhere, so no campaigning. Not to mention that his downplaying has now been exposed as BS. Interesting change to the race.

How?
His attitude won't change.
His voters will still vote for him (even if he dies).

Most voters minds are made up. It's about the (let's say) 5% undecided voters that determines who wins. This is not going to help Trump at all. He's finished.

Some of what bio said. Trump was elected by the indifferent. When the dems presented them with a turd sandwich, they figured a giant douche would be better than that.

If the giant douche gets really sick from this (if he indeed has it) then those indifferents may reassess their shit and figure well, he got sick so maybe he is as dumb as he looks. Maybe the turd will be different.

Trump going to hospital...

Unlike the gormless trumpanzees who spouted off about hydroxychloroquine it seems that Trump isn't taking any crazy shit like that.

The president, who said early Friday morning that he had tested positive for the virus, has a low-grade fever, nasal congestion and a cough, according to two people close to Mr. Trump.

He has received a single infusion of a promising experimental treatment: an antibody cocktail developed by the biotech company Regeneron, according to a memo from his doctor, Dr. Sean P. Conley. Mr. Trump is also taking vitamin D, zinc, melatonin, a daily aspirin and famotidine (an antacid better known as Pepcid), the memo said.

The 25th amendment can be temporary. Reagan did it once and W did it twice, albeit for mere hours.
