Trump’s paper thin skin is now visible on his hand.

It’s not possible to determine which of his posts is most insane. The answer is, of course, AIT,K.

He's gone.

No more excuses. No more bullshit. No more lies. No more gaslighting. No more long, convoluted explanations that are little more than egregious insults of current Democrats. No more.

He. Is. Gone.

That hand, and the bruising, and the band-aids and makeup - there's something going on there, a treatment for something... It is ~not~ from shaking hands.

Everyone's suddenly lining up to shake his hand, because now you can really do some hurt on him.

Where's the usual shit about windmills and whales? Sharks and batteries? I'm disappointed.

And he left out his ballroom. I don't think he's cognitively fit to run the country anymore.

Who are these PERFECT Marks? Are they straight out of central casting? Do they approach Trump with tears in their eyes? Are they living with his friend Jim when Jim's not visiting Paris because Jim thinks Paris is a shit hole? Are Don Jr. and Eric terrified they will replace them?

Just asking.

Donald. DONALD! WAKE UP! You’ve been dreaming.

Donald doesn't believe he falls asleep in public. And everyone around him is terrified to wake him up. Marco Rubio screaming compliments at him at the cabinet meeting certainly didn't do the trick.

I guess he gets really pissed when you tell him he fell asleep, and when he gets really pissed, I guess he gets difficult.

The fact that he's taken 3 cognitive exams in...almost as many years, I think...has me surprised that we're not having mandatory hearings about whether the 25th Amendment should be invoked.

After all, from what I understand they only give you that test when they think you might have dementia.

All that handshaking could be more dangerous than we realized.

When severely mentally ill people sit next to me on the bus, it's not their "aura" that causes me to move away a few seats.

"...in front of large numbers of doctors and experts, most of whom I do not know."

Wait, was this one of those clinical presentations to other doctors and trainees like in 19th century paintings of medical schools where they bring into an auditorium someone severely afflicted with some disorder and poke and prod them?

No its where you have something weird happening and they bring in all the med students/residents from across the hospital so they learn what it looks like.

Come on, investigative journos, report on the fact that he did not write that, any more than he wrote every one of the 160-post flood of crap.

While the content has his signature bonkers and catch phrases, overall it is still too cogent and the syntax is not his. There are dead giveaways, like he doesn't use words like "aura" or "perhaps," and the multi-clause sentences stick to the topic.

Aside from his obvious decline, whoever's covering it up by running his social media accounts is the really big story.

"...he did not write that"

I don't know that the smell of bullshit counts as an aura. Although really, more like the smell of an exploding pig shit lagoon.

Take it from someone who worked eight years in a psychiatric hospital; Donald Trump is the dementia patient that spends half the night standing at the nurses station window running his mouth about how his doctor told him he can go home anytime he wants and he doesn’t need his medication anymore.
