MSNBC host blasted after comparing Biden's Covid diagnosis to Trump's assassination attempt

President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with Covid-19.

The diagnosis comes as the President was forced to cancel his scheduled appearance at the Unidosus Latino Advocacy conference, with the groups CEO Janet Murguia announcing the news.

The media has commented on the diagnosis, with MSNBC's Joy Reid saying it's a 'show of strength' and compared it to Donald Trump surviving an assassination attempt.

I thought it was just 'a pandemic of the non-vaccinated'?

[RzGarage]

Trudeau did that once too, hiding from Truckers, pretend to have covid

[jocopowell]

So he's going into quarantine for 2 weeks? This is pathetic.

[TatiaunaGorbachev]

She seriously struggled so hard telling that lie.

[sarahkeller]

I bet that this COVID talk is a lie
Because he is feeble and can't face the stage

[woofolliesmydog]

Joy Reid is nuts. Comparing a sniffle to being shot.

[CousinCreepy]

He wants his own "poor me" moment. He cant stand to see Trump in the spotlight. You could see this coming from all the way down the road!

Right. Convenient. He’s in the basement. Gotta keep him quiet

[tahna]

IF he recovers??? Are they planning for him NOT to "recover"??
This poor guy is so far gone that he has no clue what they are doing to him. 😢

[jasonleeuk]

Whatever happened to “if you get the vaccine you won’t get Covid”?

[megmoe]

Im guessing this is part of plan B after plan A failing on Saturday.

[bugvswindshield]

he staggered out, no mask, grabbing people to stand up as he wabbles along....
the double standards never stop.

[Melissa_]

If he has covid, why is no one wearing a mask, including him.

[erinklinger]

It's bull shit! He's to scared to face the people! He's back hiding in his basement!

[calvinlockett]

thats pretty convenient. What a joke. This is how stupid they think we are and will continue to treat us like morons.

[Muffins]

The lies are getting more and more blatant

[justinmac]

What a convenient excuse to keep him under wraps for a while so he doesn't embarrass himself any further

[xiwodzm]

JB puts millions of people at risk everyday.

[Yujita]

Parkinson's disease, dementia, and now covid....

[harrygordon]

How pathetic can you get! Is he playing the sympathy angle? What a sick crock of you know what.
