You are indeed correct! They are all part of the entertainment industry. Although your spelling leaves a lot to be desired.

Donny, while wasting everyone's time ranting about Hillary's emails yet again this morning for nearly an hour: "I'm not going to waste my time on a virtual debate!".

...because they can cut him off when he overtalks Biden...

Gasping For Air - The Lincoln Project

Trump is still trying to convince us covid isn't a big deal, even as he's gasping for air.

"The antibody cocktail for Covid-19 that President Trump touted on Wednesday afternoon was developed with cells originally derived from fetal tissue, a practice that the president had repeatedly condemned"

Provider of Trump Covid drug is president*'s golf friend
Link to drug company boss raises questions about ‘cure’ claims and exclusive access

https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...ts-golf-friend

Quote:
New questions have emerged over the circumstances in which Donald Trump was given an experimental antibody drug cocktail produced by a golfing acquaintance to treat his coronavirus infection.

As Trump wrongly hailed his treatment – which included a drug called REGN-COV2 produced by Regeneron – as a “cure”, it emerged that the company’s chief executive, Leonard Schleifer, is a member of the Trump National golf club in Briarcliff Manor, New York, and had met the president in May to talk about drugs his company was developing.

While some ethicists have defended Trump’s privileged access as president to experimental treatments, others have suggested it raises questions of fairness among other concerns, including his history of touting unproven treatments.

Trump’s relationship with Schleifer, whom he reportedly calls “Lenny”, adds to growing questions over the president’s almost exclusive access to experimental treatments unavailable to most other Americans, even as he has continued to downplay the threat of coronavirus based on his own experience.

The price of Regeneron stocks – which Trump has owned in the past – soared after it was revealed the drug had been made available for his treatment and Trump stated it would be made freely available for all, although he didn’t explain how.

It looks like Chris Christie is getting out of the hopsital. I was thinking he might be the first actual casuality of Trumps inner circle.

The odds are in general good for any individual's survival. Need bigger case set than we're talking to make one or more casualties 'inevitable.'
