Trump is receiving dexamethasone, a steroid usually given to patients with severe Covid-19, according to STAT, a publication I never heard of until a few minutes ago, but that looks extremely legit.
At this point, the Vice President should be in the basement practically wearing a hazmat suit. If there were any adults left in the White House, like General Kelly, that's what would be happening. It's a national security issue at this point.
If they cared about national security, Pence would be in charge right now. Trump should be focusing on his health. Pumping Trump up with roids so he can spend a few minutes a day doing his weekend at Bernie's routine, is clinically speaking "nuts". The roids he is taking induce mania and even psychosis which is a real danger with him because his personality is already manic.
I can speak from firsthand experience. When I was in my 20s, I had to take heavy dose roids to treat a lung infection. Even though I was extremely sick, I felt like I could run a marathon once they dosed me up. Physically, your body just feels stronger incredibly strong. I didn't even register pain. However, when they start decreasing the dose, you feel like you have been hit by a freight train. I felt worse from the roid comedown than I did the actual illness I was being treated for.
