Any MD who publicly endorses this insanity needs to lose his/her license. Period,' Rubin declared

Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin blasted the medical team at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center Monday, going as far as calling for the "defunding" of the hospital after President Trump announced he would return to the White House that evening.

Trump tweeted Monday afternoon: "I will be leaving the great Walter Reed Medical Center today at 6:30 P.M. Feeling really good! Don’t be afraid of Covid. Don’t let it dominate your life. We have developed, under the Trump Administration, some really great drugs & knowledge. I feel better than I did 20 years ago!"

Trump's medical team, led by White House physician Dr. Sean Conley, reaffirmed the president's optimism, with Conley noting Trump's condition had improved from when he was admitted Friday, while adding he "may not entirely be out of the woods yet."

Rubin responded with a tirade blasting the president, who she called a "menace to everyone around you," and the doctors in charge of his recovery.

“Any MD who publicly endorses this insanity needs to lose his/her license. Period," Rubin declared in one of several tweets, another writing, "Congress might want to defund Walter Reed. It is a public health hazard."

She said in another tweet, "A 74 yr old [obese] man with covid - who might have lung damage - and a pattern of disregarding medical advice is returned to an environment in which he may infect others. What planet does Conley inhabit? Where is the rest of Walter Reed? The VP? They are remarkable cowards."

In truth, America's hospitals have been sending all but the sickest COVID patients home to recover since April of this year. They couldn't have managed the numbers otherwise ...

Much of the media has become caricatures of themselves. It would be humorous if it weren't so consequential. Has Rubin ever criticized Andrew Cuomo for sending thousands of elderly Covid patients back into nursing homes?

Whatever happened to liberals views of medical decisions being between a patient and his/her doctor?
Is she a medical professional?
Also, liberals best be careful about politicizing Trump's bout with Covid or any other medical issue he might face.
It might come back to bite them in the butt should Joe Biden be elected, and face health issues of his own, which are not unlikely.

One thing we can surely count on, as it is proven over and over, is that the media will apply its rules very unevenly.
