He's definitely worse since that last hospital visit. Can't stay awake if he's not talking. Babbling gibberish is worse. Could be medication side effects, who knows wtf he's taking. The toadies all stand around behind him trying to pretend he's not sleeping.

This vile, stupid POS never learned how to lose with dignity in kindergarten and because of that he is destroying the entire world, not just our poor stupid country, but the entire globe, with his petty-ass grievances and bottomless black hole of need. He is appointing the most unqualified boot-licking toadies and utterly shameless loyalists and obsequious courtiers to the most important jobs, destroying economies, killing people worldwide, igniting wars under the delusional belief that that will somehow make him an empire builder lauded by history, all because he has never, not once in his long, miserable, hateful life, ever experienced a modicum of genuine human decency, kindness, or love, because his ability to dole it out is equivalent to that of a slab of busted concrete. He is devoid of any feeling besides the seven deadly ones. And not only does the party in power refuse to do anything about it, they are actively colluding, right out in the open, with the corrupt-ass Supreme Court to keep themselves (and him, probably) in power indefinitely. And for what? Fear of modernity? Trans athletes? More seats at the table for the historically disenfranchised? Shit is fucked y’all. Full stop.

I truly think Trump has mild chorea, either from all of the Adderall he snorts or whatever neurological event he had when half his face was drooping in Sept 2025. But seriously, his right arm starts doing its own thing. It looks approximate to a purpose when he twitches or slaps the air, even looking like he’s waving at someone… but putting it together over time, he appears to have developed movement disorder. And his facial movements! When he’s walking, he will make the strangest facial tics. Watch when he walks or has to stand still in place, and you will see the chorea! Walking up the stairs to Air Force one, he randomly slaps the railing before grabbing it… so odd until you realize it’s a movement disorder.

You can see it pretty well in this video: https://youtu.be/10mYKKExv9o?si=OeB_wCJ11Ij31soE

It happens fairly often when he’s walking, less as much when he’s actually speaking or focused. Or when he’s holding his hand down to the desk with a death grip.

It would be sad if someone we loved were falling apart in real time.

But it's only Trump.

BadNews26's avatar

Right!! It would be so sad! But the lies and dishonesty about his health! And the fact that everyone around him acts like nothing is wrong. Makes it even harder to empathize.

It's ... more than a little unsettling to realize full disclosure of the physical health of the public officials who are sworn to SERVE THE PUBLIC is one of them *norms*, as opposed to a law

The first thing some of us did when we realized the depth of depravity in corruption in some of these people -- which for any New Yorker paying attention was WAY before 2016 -- was to ask for some LAWS to be put in place because we realized some people only respond to deterrents (fear of consequences, fear of penalties), and they don't necessarily even have the "better angels" that types like the White Southern historian John Meacham are always asking people to appeal to and search for and seek whenever Confederate Republicans (and some Confederate Democrats, frankly) get just a little too greedy for the average public taste.

We were ignored.

We were sneered at.

We were scolded (literally, for me, as recently as two days ago).

We were shouted down.

And nothing was ever done.

And -- as a direct, traceable, causative result of those caveats being cavalierly tossed aside -- here we are.

Good luck, everyone

If any of those reporters had just said “Is he asleep?!” just once I feel like it would be an Emperor has no clothes moment. But they won’t because they know Trump is good for their ratings. They’re riding this shitshow gravy train as far as it will go. And it’s kind of sad because in a way, I get it. Media is dying. Once this carnival leaves and it’s just a boring everyday leader who gets the job done without the bombast many of these people will have nothing to do and will be likely let go.

I doubt he'll ever see it, nevertheless I persisted.

"Hey marco,

You are a lying piece of shit. Fuck you and your orange daddy.

I hope you end up in prison, it is where you belong, you treasonous, big-eared freak.

In summary, go fuck yourself.

Thanks for your attention to this matter."

Ta, Evan. Watching none of those videos. If I may take issue with one little thing, it's the KIDS in the Epstein files who are being ignored by these mendacious mediocre miscreants masquerading as men.

Just Saying Random Thought Department....

Robert Graves had Caligula and his bully, named Macro, settle the issue of Tiberius Caesar always passing out, looking really dead and then surprising everyone by waking back up and asking why everyone was dancing joyfully.

Macro just put a pillow over Tiberius's face, bore down onto the pillow with his full weight while Caligula counted to one thousand in Latin. One problem solved and another problem (Caligula becomes god-king) created.

Of course this whole random thought illustrates Robert Graves excellent command of English poetic devices to help us to a deeper understanding of Roman Empire internal politics.

You expect a certain level of bullshit with politicians but now we're just drowning in it. It's like if the humidity level could go above 100%. It's a wet bulb of bullshit out there.

Leader is wide awake and healthy. Ten wars ended. Prefab house heir will expose rigged elections. Black people have full employment. You can easily afford everything you need. And not a peep from the press. No curiosity, no pushback no dignity.

But the NY Times is investigating all of Graham Platner's girlfriends back to elementary school. I don't know about you, but I call that hard-hitting journalism!

Actually, I'm treated well.

Except in the hospital. They have to ask AI if I can fart.

But in real life, it's good. And I tip well.

I feel like this is a thing people should be infuriated about but they won’t because the media will ignore it.

Despite all of the damage Elon has done to our country, I keep seeing new Teslas show up in our company’s parking lot. WTF? How are people still buying Teslas?

Deep discounts. Shhhh.
