I remain boggled by people insisting that it is incumbent on everyone to express sympathy on Trump’s condition when (a) he himself never expressed any genuine sympathy (perhaps a maximum of 2 – 3 brief throwaway statements almost certainly insisted on by his staff) to the families of the hundreds of thousands of Americans whose deaths were directly attributable to his deliberate downplaying of the seriousness of the virus, refusal to take early actions that would have helped the US handle the pandemic appropriately, and mockery of public health precautions that would help limit its spread, and (b) his infection is due to the politicization of those precautions and to the fact that he, his family, his inner circle, and his campaign refused to wear masks or establish social distancing at events for themselves or for his audience.
It’s not hate, it’s simply the Republican wish that the virus burn through the entire population, and do it as soon as possible just to get it over with (they think). The stupidity comes in when masses of people unwittingly fall for the bunk to make it happen.
-Somewhat off topic Since pence is against plexiglas virus shields, I’m waiting to see if he coughs or sneezes in the direction of Harris. I does seem to be the republican way.

I wish the nation a speedy recovery when the Republican death cult is no longer in power.

I wish Trump a recovery, but not a speedy one.
In fact, for the sake of the nation, I hope that he lapses into a coma until late January, at least.
