My wife said he looked very pale and I noticed his eyes being weirdly red.

I don't know what other reason he'd be pulled off the campaign trail for. Maybe his wife is sick?

This is fucking brilliant, if true.

It's not exactly a "fake story" it's just a placeholder story that accidentally got published.

There must be something wrong with Trump.

He retweeted a rebuttal to the point he was trying to make.

This is the shit that scares the fuck out of me.. I am waiting for them to put this to Biden and say he can't run or some shit.. They are desperate and DT keeps pressuring these guys.

I would view that as more likely to mean they can't find anything to indict anyone for, so no reason to say that out loud and ruin one of the President's biggest storylines. So this is Barr protecting him, in that sense.

This isn't the time to say the Boogeyman isn't real.

I don’t think this is Barr “protecting” Trump but it is probably hard to charge people even if the FBI/CIA went overboard with their Russia investigations. Short of knowingly submitting a false document to a court, which the one FBI lawyer who got indicted (Kevin Clinesmith) did,
I’m not sure how overzealous investigation/prosecution can result in criminal charges. Flynn got his guilty plea thrown out (pending appeal) as a consequence of prosecutorial misconduct but it’s a whole different step affirmatively charge prosecutors or investigators.

I'm just saying that when Trump keeps yelling "OBAMA SPIED ON ME!" you can't discredit that in the run up to the election. That's the "protection". You can't admit that it isn't true.

It sort of is true, though, in the sense that what the FBI did to Carter Page in order to get surveillance warrants on him (and effectively the Trump campaign) was pretty damn unethical. But Kevin Clinesmith pleading guilty to altering an e-mail won’t satisfy QAnon fever dreams of Hillary and Obama getting arrested. Nor will the established misuse of FISA have any material affect on the election.

DT is apparently going to be interviewed by a 3rd party doctor and then examine on National TV.. I honestly wish we could move away from this and go back to hit taxes and other stuff he hasn't done. I still have my doubts about the CV, but it is what it is. It's apparent he isn't that sick now and isn't going to die if he had it, just let's move away from it.

I don't know, every doctor I've seen, including Fauci, say that the therapeutic drugs can make the symptoms go away (they treat the immune response, not the virus), and patients can suddenly deteriorate 8-15 days later.

Instead of a medical exam by a bootlicking fraud of a doctor, let's get a live feed of an IRS auditor examining his taxes.

Yeah, it seems the FBI cut corners to get a FISA warrant, but I don't think it had anything to do with spying on Trump, and I really don't believe it came down from Obama or Holder. The FISA courts are a joke, almost a guaranteed rubber stamp, and my impression is the sloppy work on Page's warrant was the norm. My understanding is that Page was under surveillance long before he joined the Trump campaign, and he did have sketchy connections with Russian intel agents. I think there is an enormous difference between "Obama spying" on Trump's campaign and Trump hiring shady figures that were already subject of FISA warrants or in Manafort's case, working with Ukrainian officials that were under Putin's control in violation of campaign laws. I don't know why the press, Biden or any Dems don't make this point. If you hire criminals, most of them known criminals before you hire them, and they get convicted of crimes, you can't say the DOJ is attacking you in the greatest scandal of all time, your people just got caught committing the crimes you hired them to do for you.
