    Two different oaths

    President: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

    Vice President: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God."

    Remember when people wished death on Rudy Gobert for mocking the virus and even intentionally spreading it to other people?

    Me either.

    Debate prep time with Trump. Others from debate prep have it, too. Trump is a super spreader.

    • A source told reporters that Trump's "vitals over last 24 hours were very concerning and the next 48 hours will be critical."

    Here's my new favorite Trump administration quote

    SNIP
    “It’s just ****-up after ****-up,” said a senior administration official who works with the coronavirus task force. “I don’t have much more to add [beyond] that.”
    ENDSNIP

    He/She is talking about COVID, but it works for all occasions...

    Possibly my favorite part is the URL....

    Ok. I don't put too much stock in these type of "sources say," stories.

    Do we have evidence that the Chief of Staff is actively working against his boss?

    They used the honor system.

    ’Honor system’ for COVID-19 testing of campaign staff before presidential debate, moderator says.

    I wouldn't say actively working against his boss, more like what happened with the Woodward tapes. AKA: Not to cause panic.

    And, Pence (who tested negative, thus far) will still participate in the next event.

    They both point to the same thing, defending the Constitution, the true north star of our republic. There is no other magical difference between them.

    How does admitting he’s worse than he is, avoid panic?

    It should be a sign from god that he doesn't like this nomination.

    I now think mail in ballots or even online voting should be mandatory options. An election across 50 States could possibly if not probably start the virus back up.
