Dexamethasone

Trump, still suffering from covid-19, returned to the White House yesterday in a publicly staged conqueror's return. The BBC deflated the news by noting how out of breath he was after climbing the stairs to the first floor of White House to make an appearance on the balcony. 

Apparently still in the early stages of the infection, Trump is being given Dexamethasone, a cortical steroid. Among Dexamethasone's side effects are mania, a lack of judgement and a reduction in impulse control, none of which could be said to be Trump's strong suits and the best of times. Just when you though things couldn't get any worse...
