A new report from the New York Times alleges that President Donald Trump was sicker with COVID-19 than publicly acknowledged in October.
According to the report, at one point, the former president had extremely low blood oxygen levels and a lung issue associated with pneumonia caused by the coronavirus.
Before he was taken to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, officials believed that he would need to be put on a ventilator, the report continues.
Additionally, the report alleges that Trump was found to have lung infiltrates, which contain substances such as fluid or bacteria and occur when the lungs become inflamed.
Trump’s medical team repeatedly attempted to downplay the severity of his situation, saying that he was on “an upswing” while hospitalized at Walter Reed.
At one briefing, his physician, Dr. Sean P. Conley was asked about whether there was evidence of pneumonia or damage to the tissue, he only answered that there were “expected findings, but nothing of any major clinical concern.”

There is a rich history of Presidents downplaying or hiding their medical conditions, I am not sure who actually believed those reports then.
I also don’t know why this is at all relevant now. He is out of office already and the impeachment is over.
I don’t see any news outlets falling all over themselves to report how Jimmy Carter’s press team lied about his radiation exposure when he went to Three Mile Island. And that has more repercussions on his current health than this does on Trump’s current health.
Can’t say I believe this. Just 48 hours after he was “so sick” he was back at the podium. Something just doesn’t add up
B’H we are so grateful to the Almighty for President Donald Trump’s speedy & full recovery, and wish you best of health as you get ready for your 2nd term in office from Noon 1/20/2025 thru Noon 1/20/2029.
At that time you shall IY’H salvage the horrendous damage being inflicted by sleepy joe.
If this is actually a true statement, then kudos to the Trump administration for not spreading unnecessary fear, & look it actually worked, he was back in office two days later
No surprise here, he downplayed the whole deadly pandemic. And we still don’t know why he was rushed to the hospital, when he claimed it was to begin his physical.
Reportedly from the new York times.
Yawn yawn.
Whether true or not they are not reliable and they are just looking for what to right cuz Biden is a bore…
And this is important now because…?
