You are looking at this all wrong. Schadenfreude is the joy in another’s misfortune. Covid 19 is a not a misfortune but unbelievable blessing for the trump because it give him the chance to pass on and so be saved from the temptation of being twice as bad a president as he had been.
So our joy at the news of his happy diagnosis is not the joy in his misfortune by the delight that he is so blessed.
I'll respectfully disagree.
