Is it Fair & Right for Trump's buddies to get medical treatments not available to all?

A solid case can be made that the president, as the nation's "leader", should get the best medical care possible.

But Ben Carson? Chris Christie? And now Rudy Giuliani? If so, why not Herman Cain? He was a supporter, too. Instead, he died.

This sort of favoritism is what dictators do. Is it right? Is it fair?

Here's an article pointing out hospitals around the country are providing these therapies by lottery:

Update:

BB: You answer a question with a question? Ever hear "Two wrongs do not make a right"? Irrelevant to the question. asked...

Update 2:

Latest Anon: Yes but neither Christie nor Giuliana are in civil service - they are just ones who said nice things about him - sheesh!

Update 3:

Matt: It's obvious he's NOT sad at all. The whole thing lying to us was on purpose. Someone told him about Herd Mentality - er, Immunity, & he thought, Hmmm, I can just let all those useless expensive old people die (along with a few young, Collateral Damages) & do almost nothing & be a hero. NOT!

    Since when does Trump care about what’s fair and right? 290k deaths and I’m yet to hear him express a single word of sadness or sympathy for a single one of them...

    Actually people in the federal civil service and congress get good healthcare as part of their job.

    No it's not fair or right.

    But it's the hospital administration who agreed to treat these people like VIPs.   THEY are the ones who should have to answer for their own ethics.

    It's kind of like the big fuss over Lori Laughlin and Felicity Huffman when no one even knows the names of the sleazy administrators behind the scenes who are accepting all the bribes and making all the arrangements.
