Who benefits from Trump’s Covid infection?

[It’s so Joever]

I still believe that Trump has more to gain from this through a potential sympathy bump, but a lot of posters disagree. How do you think this will change the race?

Easily Trump. This will energize his base like never before and with some nasty comments from his detractors all but guaranteed, he'll build up some sympathy.

As if his base weren't energized.

Not at 2016 levels they weren't. They will be now, mark my words.

Seems a bit inconsistent with what you have said before...

I think it depends how Biden messages it. Big test for his campaign. I think they need to flat-out "go there" and blame Trump for his own infection.

I say they should strike a balance. They should say they hope he gets better, but also not hesitate to bring up all the irresponsible decisions made by team Trump and by the administration which led to this.

I predict polling will be 47-46 next week after the sympathy bump

You people are unbelievable. Everything must help Trump, huh? If Biden got COVID, you’d all be declaring his campaign DOA. Stop it.

You will not speak to me in this tone

Lmao are you serious?
