This question has become increasingly more difficult to answer based upon the information provided by Trump's medical team, most notably White House physician Dr. Sean Conley.
Trump is either much more ill than they are saying based upon the medications they report they are giving him plus the fact he has been admitted and has three ICU and 2 infection disease doctors along with the White House physician at a minimum. Or if we believe his symptoms really are mild then they are aggressively overtreating him and Trump is a victim of the VIP Syndrome.
Their reported actions don't match their clinical picture. Sean Conley repeatedly lied during his Saturday morning briefing. As a naval officer and physician his integrity should be beyond reproach, but he completely compromised his integrity with his repeated lies and created an unnecessary credibility problem for the entire team because now we don't know what is true and what is false. He admitted he wasn't forthcoming with reporters during Sunday's briefing and claimed "it came off as if we were trying to hide something, which wasn't necessarily true." Except that part is true. He was trying to hide something which is why he kept lying by omission or be giving deliberately misleading statements. It was so blatantly obvious he was forced to address it the next day. I had questions about his credibility since he wrote the letter about Trump's alleged hydroxychloroquine use in May. His press briefing removed any doubt. He's the Navy's equivalent of Baghdad Bob.
