Two of the hosts of the ABC talk show “The View” admitted this week that they believe President Donald Trump’s coronavirus diagnosis was fake.
Their admission came Thursday, a day after tech giants Facebook and Twitter began suppressing an unconfirmed story about Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden’s youngest son, Hunter, that media pundits had claimed was a “conspiracy theory.”
The first admission was made by co-host Whoopi Goldberg as she was responding to a fellow co-host’s complaints that the idea of herd immunity — which is currently being considered by the White House — “seems cruel, seems callous.”
“It doesn’t look good anywhere,” Goldberg responded before suddenly trotting out what could be the conspiracy theory of the year.
“You know, the more he talks, the less I think he had it, personally. That’s just me,” she said.
This prompted another conspiracy-minded co-host, Joy Behar, to exclaim, “Me too!” Never Trumper Ana Navarro held up three fingers and said, “me three.”
Listen:
“I’m starting to feel like, really, wait a minute, five days?” Goldberg continued, referencing the number of days she thought it’d taken the president to recover.
“You’re the only person on the face of the Earth, and if you’re comparing yourself to Jesus, if you’re saying five days, that’s all it took? People have not been able to, still haven’t been able to get out of bed. So I just don’t know. And you couldn’t get the information? I just feel weird about it.”
In response, co-host Sunny Hostin noted, “They didn’t have access to the same drugs.”
Indeed, because he’s the president, Trump was able to benefit from the experimental drug Remdesivir, which he’s now hoping to offer to the public for free:

“It’s not about the drugs,” Behar, who’s a known anti-Trump zealot, then blurted out. “He’s a liar. Why would you believe anything he says?”
Goldberg then concluded the segment by offering her final thoughts.
“Yeah, because it’s hard to trust him, it’s hard to go with it, and I hate feeling like that,” she said.
The problem with this conspiracy theory is that a near-army of people would have had to have been in on the plot for it to have succeeded so well, including all the doctors at Walter Reed Medical Center who’d treated the president.
Plus, much of what Goldberg had said wasn’t even accurate.
The president never compared himself to Christian savior Jesus Christ. He simply shared quotes from someone who’d argued “the Jewish people in Israel love him like he’s the King of Israel. They love him like he is the second coming of God.”
There’s a difference.
Look:
“Thank you to Wayne Allyn Root for the very nice words. “President Trump is the greatest President for Jews and for Israel in the history of the world, not just America, he is the best President for Israel in the history of the world…and the Jewish people in Israel love him….

….like he’s the King of Israel. They love him like he is the second coming of God…But American Jews don’t know him or like him. They don’t even know what they’re doing or saying anymore. It makes no sense! But that’s OK, if he keeps doing what he’s doing, he’s good for…..

…..all Jews, Blacks, Gays, everyone. And importantly, he’s good for everyone in America who wants a job.” Wow! @newsmax @foxandfriends @OANN

Second, it’s not true that the president was fully “recovered” within just five days.
Two days after the president tested positive for coronavirus on Oct. 1st, he traveled to the Walter Reed Medical Center for treatment. Two days later on Oct. 5, he made a visually dramatic return to the White House. That’s only four days, first of all, but more importantly, his return from Walter Reed didn’t mean he’d recovered yet.
It wasn’t until this past Monday, Oct. 12, that Physician to the President Dr. Sean Conley announced that the president had begun to test negative for the virus. This suggests a recovery time of roughly 11 days, or two weeks rounding up.

Incidentally, two weeks fits perfectly with what’s known about the virus.
“Those with a mild case of COVID-19 appear to recover within one to two weeks,” Johns Hopkins Medicine notes.
Facts matter. Conspiracies not so much, though for reasons that remain unclear, the conspiracy surrounding the president’s proven diagnosis has been allowed to spread unfettered on social media among unhinged leftists like the ones below:
There’s also a part of me that thinks Trump is lying about getting Covid to delay the debates.

I mean, honestly, do we know this is real? Do we know this isn’t some last ditch election ruse where he claims he’s cured himself with some obscure drug that his company coincidentally makes? That sounds ludicrous but ‘gestures at 2020]

My level of distrust is off the hook. I think he didn’t test positive and just said so. He will then show miraculous “recovery” to say, “See? Nothing to it!” Or take Hydroxychloraquine to boost sales. Wouldn’t put it past him. SMH

Meanwhile, legitimate reporting from the New York Post was suppressed and censored. Perhaps everybody should be allowed to share their thoughts, no matter how stupid and asinine they may be?
