I'm sorry if this has already been discussed - I scanned the first couple of pages of War Room and I didn't see anything. Mods, if this should be part of the larger coronavirus thread, please feel free to move.
I've seen alot of commentary that with Trump contracting COVID, it will highlight the fact that he didn't take the threat seriously, and his illness is indicative of his failing pandemic planning. Apparently a poll was released on Saturday that indicated Biden's lead had surged to as much as 10%.
With that being said, if Trump makes a quick turnaround with no ill lasting effects, I personally think it will boost him in the polls as opposed to hurting him.
Arguably, he is in the highest risk category (elderly and overweight), so if he recovers quickly and gets back to campaigning, he can use that as an example as to why people are overblowing the Coronavirus. To his supporters, it may even seem like a hero figure of sorts - nothing, including the "Chinaman" virus can bring him down (PS, my use of Chinaman was taken from twitter, where a surprising number of people are referring to Covid that way).
I can personally see him leveraging this as an advantage, as he can do two things:
1) Look how effective this Regeneron treatment is, a vaxine will be here before the elections
2) Healthy people shouldn't worry about COVID and just go on and live their lives (including voting). If he can breeze past it, then young and healthy people have nothing to worry about.
The flipside is that if he gets really sick, he is fucked come election time. People will start to panic if the leader of the free world goes down.
