[u/eemercerr]

Is he covering his MS-13 tattoos?

[u/soonnow → u/eemercerr]

Make a photoshop and he'll deport himself 

[u/Davwader → u/soonnow]

Photoshop his photoshopped ms13 hands onto a random Mexican and watch him ramble about the weak small ms13 hands.

[u/Aussieomni]

I look forward to months of coverage of how he’s too old and sick to hold office… oh wait

[u/Secure_Pain_9251 → u/Aussieomni]

"The worst part is the hypocrisy"

I disagree. The worst part is all the raping.

[u/ExistingCarry4868 → u/Secure_Pain_9251]

The worst part is that are so many terrible parts it's hard to decide which is worst. Is it the raping? The weaponizing police to enforce racism? The intentionally crashing the economy to manipulate the market? The use of crypto coins to take direct bribes from the wealthy?

[u/Holek → u/ExistingCarry4868]

All. The whole package is awful.

[u/Wrong_Parsley_2444 → u/Secure_Pain_9251]

Chairman of the b-o-r-e-d

[u/BigMommaSnikle → u/Wrong_Parsley_2444]

Damn I miss him.

[u/MyUserLame → u/Secure_Pain_9251]

911 airlines.

Reminds me of that tragedy.

[u/Boring_Problem5582 → u/Aussieomni]

Fox News will be talking about how he's more fit for office 3 months after his death than any Democrat could ever be.

[u/GarbledReverie → u/Aussieomni]

The media is so fucking complicit. They’ve already pushed past the Epstein story without spending even one sixteenth the coverage they gave Hillary’s emails.

[u/Ferelar → u/GarbledReverie]

And Hillary got dragged through TEN SEPERATE INVESTIGATIONS into Benghazi, including HOURS of continual cross-examination with one of the interrogations lasting ELEVEN HOURS, and despite hour after hour after hour of inane questioning by that partisan fuckstick Gowdy who was utterly biased they STILL found so little evidence of wrongdoing that they couldn't pin something on her despite it being a blatant kangaroo court...

... meanwhile Trump has done, and this is not even one iota of hyperbole, THOUSANDS OF THINGS worse than that and not had to suffer the "indignity" of a single hearing (I put indignity in quotes because you cannot suffer an indignity if you have no dignity). I remember Fox running one headline after another of how Hillary PERSONALLY saw to it that the Benghazi incident would occur, to the point where they were pulling out the "Couldn't we say that that meant she personally murdered those fine folks? I'm just asking questions here!" shit.

Edit: I said eight investigations, it was TEN. And she testified for 11 fucking hours in one of the hearings!! They tried so hard to make anything stick and nothing did, and yet when they have the actual fucking anti-Christ in front of them it's hemming and hawing instead.

[u/atxbigfoot → u/Ferelar]

Don't forget that the Benghazi investigation found that the funding for security at embassies in dangerous places like Benghazi was cut by, you guessed it, Republicans, which set up the entire fail chain.

They don't mention that, though.

[u/HauntedCemetery → u/atxbigfoot]

Fucking exactly. Republicans at best were cheap, and greedy. Its more likely they were fishing for a tragedy they could use to attack the absurdly popular President Obama, so they slashed security funding for embassies in conflict areas.

The Benghazi embassy went from having 40 marines always on duty to like 5.

Because Republicans took them away and left the embassy in a fucking war zone without adequate security.

[u/Full-Appointment5081 → u/HauntedCemetery]

It wasn't even the embassy--that's in the capitol Tripoli. It was a consulate & a CIA annex. It was like the equivalent of opening a branch office at a strip mall

[u/md4024 → u/Ferelar]

It's honestly incredible.We still do not talk enough about how much the media screwed Hillary Clinton, and by extension the country, during the 2016 campaign. Clinton's emails were, by a very wide margin, the most covered story of the entire campaign. This, despite the fact that every investigation into the emails found no wrong doing by anyone. It was a literal non story, no one did anything wrong, it caused zero problems in any way, there aren't even any hypothetical problems it could have caused, because Clinton and her team handled classified material properly. But for over a year, it was the biggest story in politics, even though no one could explain why it mattered, because it did not matter.

Clinton's opponent in 2016 was an unstable moron who legit can not read, who has a lifetime's worth of blatant fraud and dangerous incompetence on his record as a businessman, who was literally working with the Russian government to get elected president, and who was best friends with America's most notorious child sex predator. Clinton was the most qualified and prepared candidate to ever run for the job, Trump was the most dangerously unqualified and unfit man to ever stand for high office, and the media spent the entire election talking about a fake email story that Republicans in Congress cooked up while they were openly abusing their government authority for hack partisan purposes.

[u/Diligent_Ad6552 → u/GarbledReverie]

And let’s not forget Pizzagate and Frazzledrip. Where are are those loonies now that a pedo is actually president?

[u/fibgen → u/Diligent_Ad6552]

Working at the DoJ and in the White House.

[u/Major5013 → u/Aussieomni]

Jake Tapper writing a book up as we speak to release after Trump is gone.

[u/cugeltheclever2 → u/Major5013]

...about how Biden failed

[u/JagmeetSingh2 → u/Aussieomni]

The media is so rightwing biased

[u/Riaayo → u/Aussieomni]

When the oligarchs are looking to make him the next fall-guy you will begin to hear that narrative, and then they'll get Thiel's little pet Vance into the office.

Americans will see Trump out and think it's all over, go back to sleep, and roll right over for the return to the Republican party's fascist in a suit and tie. "Civility" will be back in the eyes of the pundits.

Y'know, just like how nobody talks about DOGE anymore once Musk fucked off despite it very much still infesting our government and causing problems.

[u/manwhowasnthere]

He's probably on a blood thinner - maybe to prevent stroke / some kind of cardiac issue.

My dad is in his eighties and he bruises super easily, especially hands, arms etc. I guarantee this is covering up a bruise for the camera.

Good thing we have the trusty WH physician to tell us, with tears in his eyes, that Trump's the healthiest 79 year old man he's ever seen

[u/Blue_Swirling_Bunny → u/manwhowasnthere]

Now he needs to cover up the coverup....

[u/manwhowasnthere → u/Blue_Swirling_Bunny]

Well this was either a rush job, or they've decided they don't give a shit anymore

[u/Realistic_Volume_927 → u/manwhowasnthere]

Im really hoping they've stopped giving a shit and just let him roll out for the camera like the giant meat sack of swollen shit he is.

[u/REO_Jerkwagon → u/Realistic_Volume_927]

Look at his face in the article's main picture. They stopped giving a shit, and he looks like shit. Like seriously worse than usual.

[u/Unhappy_Loss770 → u/REO_Jerkwagon]

At this accelerated rate of decline, dude will be a vegetable by late winter

[u/ill0gitech → u/Unhappy_Loss770]

If it’s what you say, I love it, especially later in the summer

[u/myfakesecretaccount → u/Realistic_Volume_927]

No professional makeup person would do a job that bad. This is the work of someone who has zero fucking clue how to hide a bruise and only had their own makeup on them. Maybe it’s the girl who follows him around and prints positive tweets.

[u/BlueTreeThree → u/myfakesecretaccount]

From reporting it sounds like Trump has long had a strange predilection for doing his own makeup, which easily explains why it always looks so shitty(and why it seems to be getting worse.)

[u/AccomplishedScale362 → u/myfakesecretaccount]

As an attention whore, maybe he made it even more obvious knowing the media would make a big deal of it. Also, it provides another distraction from the >>>EPSTEIN FILES<<<

[u/oki-ra → u/Realistic_Volume_927]

Sounds like when bender becomes human.

[u/TsunGeneralGrievous → u/oki-ra]

I typed the noise he makes when the air escaping from the folds of his fat but r/politics auto removed it so i am describing my attempt instead

[u/AnybodyMassive1610 → u/oki-ra]

The meat suit bug dude from men in black?!

[u/BigManWAGun → u/manwhowasnthere]

I doubt it was a they call, it was a him call. This the maxi pad on his head. It was a last second reaction to some vanity bullshit.

[u/LegitimatelisedSoil → u/manwhowasnthere]

His face is like 4 different colours in the picture, I think it's clear they gave up a long time ago.

[u/HerbaciousTea → u/manwhowasnthere]

It was 100% him. This is dementia. He knows makeup covers blemishes, but that's the extent of his capacity to problem solve. He doesn't understand that he needs makeup that matches his skin tones anymore.

He's lost those higher functions that would allow him to actually solve the problem he's having. He might be frustrated that it doesn't match, but he won't be capable of figuring out why the makeup isn't working.

It's sad to see, but only because it reminds me of better people who have gone through the same disease who are worth the empathy.

[u/scubascratch → u/HerbaciousTea]

This is like when my dad had very accelerated dementia and would try to use toothpaste as a shaving cream

[u/sadetheruiner → u/scubascratch]

I’m sure that didn’t work very well. My grandma stored razor blades in cereal boxes(I’m not joking I have no clue what the thought process was and we removed all sharp objects from her vicinity afterwards).

[u/AnatidaephobiaAnon → u/scubascratch]

My wife's grandma was in diapers and would take them off, scoop out the contents into the toilet and then put them back on. She knew that it went into the toilet, but didn't have the mental capacity to completely figure out the solution. Nursing home staff had to basically check her like you would an infant or toddler to make sure she wasn't walking about with a soiled diaper all day. Even though my wife's grandma was an awful person, it was still sad to see.

[u/throwawtphone → u/HerbaciousTea]

At some point, this becomes elder abuse.

Regan was suffering from alzheimers pretty bad, especially in the last 2 years of his second term.

Strom Truman had dementia, was in diapers, falling asleep in cogress, was incoherent and wandeed off from his "political aid" in 5 points in Columbia andcfell off a curb,.

Kay Granger was missing 6 months and found in a memory care unit.

Diane Feinstein had a slew of health problems that also resulted in cognitive decline including  Ramsay Hunt syndrome which caused paralysis on the left side of her face and problems with her balance and eyesight.

Joe Biden, on the downslide, too. Has cancer.

Ruth Bader Ginsberg. Pancreatic cancer and advanced age.

The positions these people hold are high-level stress, it isnt like being a walmart greeter ffs.

The presidency especially. Look at how it has aged younger presidents.

If we can have an age minimum, then why can't there be an age maximum?

But seriously, when you have an elder person with issues like the above and like trump clearly has, how is it not elder abuse? I think it is. I know with Strom Thurman it was. It is also fraudulent imho as well.

[u/AccomplishedScale362 → u/throwawtphone]

Don’t forget about Mitch’s mid-sentence blank outs. oH hE WaS JuSt dEhYdRaTeD

[u/lilB0bbyTables → u/Blue_Swirling_Bunny]

It looks like someone applied drywall spackle compound, but no one bothered to do the follow-up wet sanding, primer or paint coatings.

[u/AnnaKossua → u/Blue_Swirling_Bunny]

You'd think he'd be better at it by now... covering up coverups is his favorite hobby!

[u/mowotlarx → u/manwhowasnthere]

The location on the hand suggests he's had an IV. A bruise in that spot and that length isn't just normal elderly bruising. He's getting some kind of medication or fluids administered pretty regularly because the bruising is always in the same spot on his hand.

[u/LackingUtility → u/mowotlarx]

That's my thought - one bruise, he whacked his hand on something. Weeks or months of this, no, they're giving an IV there because his cubital vein is shot.

[u/Captainpaul81 → u/LackingUtility]

Wasn't the initial excuse he was shaking too many hands??

[u/icecreemsamwich → u/Captainpaul81]

Ironic, right?

Coronavirus Gave Trump the Handshake-free World He Always Wanted

“For most of his life, he didn’t just shun shaking hands. He detested shaking hands. And he made this bugaboo of his nothing if not characteristically explicit. A self-described “germaphobe,” “germ freak” and “clean-hands freak,” Trump over the years has called the practice of the handshake “barbaric,” “disgusting,” “very, very terrible” and “one of the curses of American society.’”

He also despises and cringes at his own trashy voting base who he in reality wants nothing to do with, and has called them “stupid” and “disgusting.” “Maybe this Covid thing is a good thing. ... [Now] I don’t have to shake hands with these disgusting people”

[u/Salutbuton → u/icecreemsamwich]

"Handshaking is one of the curses of American society" says the top major curses of American society.

[u/AutumnSparky → u/LackingUtility]

Knowing he's in public, couldn't they give an IV in a more... well invasive place but hidden from the public?    like drug users and feet.  

or does it seriously just not work like that, gotta be in (said specific places)?

[u/treebeard189 → u/AutumnSparky]

They could and I'm surprised they're not. No reason to use something crazy like feet. You can use an ultrasound to pretty easily place an IV in the forearm/AC (inside of the elbow). I promise it's doable, I've not met someone I can't get an IV on with US and I've had people with much worse histories than him. My guess is whatever RN or tech is at the WH just hasn't been trained on US, the hand is a super classic spot to go for simple infusions and they probably aren't thinking about it. And the people that care in his like PR circle aren't medical so don't know that's an option.

Surprised by that though. I mean that's clearly an IV bruise spot, I know that vein very well and it's a spot id go too, so that's clearly what all this is.

[u/Ardnabrak → u/treebeard189]

I'd think repeatedly putting an IV in the same spot on someone his age would cause a lot of damage. Healing is so much slower.

[u/treebeard189 → u/Ardnabrak]

There's 4 good veins in the AC that can be easily accessed with US. You can rotate between them if you're worried. Excessive IV insertion can cause scarring which makes future attempts more difficult but that take a lot of time to develop or drugs like chemo that are more damaging.

Plus with US I can go to the same vein but a bit higher or lower much easier. My protocols in the ER were as long as it was 12 hours since the last IV was removed I can go in the exact same spot.

It is a consideration but not a contraindication

[u/wolferman → u/AutumnSparky]

He could get a PICC line, but then he could get a line infection given his continual exposure to E.coli from his dirty diapers.

[u/a8bmiles → u/mowotlarx]

The accusations by the GOP would imply to me it's for an adrenochrome infusion.

[u/ciel_lanila → u/a8bmiles]

The most frustrating thing about that shit is Trump is now funded by tech bros who brag about getting blood infusions from young people to prolong their lives.

It's like we watched a bunch of people elect Renfield for POTUS because of rumors that Mary von Hellsing was secretly drinking blood.

[u/Lich180 → u/mowotlarx]

It's all that adrenochrome they harvest from the kids at that pizza place, man

/s

[u/No_Pirate_1409 → u/manwhowasnthere]

My grandma is 96 and still does farm chores and climbs into tractors…this motherfucker couldn’t take her in a fight lmao

[u/DarthHiccups → u/No_Pirate_1409]

He couldn't have taken her at any age.

[u/scubascratch → u/manwhowasnthere]

There are very effective makeup/concealers available, thus looks like he covered his hand with Country Crock

[u/_ficklelilpickle → u/[deleted]]

What benefit is there over upper forearm near the elbow? I’m not an elderly person but every time I’ve had a blood test it’s always been taken from the inside of my elbow joint. I would have thought that for a government so desperately concerned with maintaining optics of looking strong and powerful they would try and hide an IV port under clothing. Then again they could also just try letting someone who can match makeup to skin tones properly apply the coverup…

[u/rose-ramos → u/_ficklelilpickle]

When I was a little girl & visited my grandpa in the hospital, I kept asking questions, because I was a very annoying child. I remember asking Grandpa, why was the needle in the back of his hand, and didn't that hurt him? A nurse told me they always start with the hand, because if there's a problem with that vein, they can move higher up the arm. But if they put the IV too high up, and there's a problem with that vein, it'll bleed into the rest of the arm, and then all the other veins become unusable.

This was nearly 30 years ago, so I may be wording it wrong, or even remembering it wrong. It's equally possible the nurse just told me whatever would shut me up (I would not blame her). But the explanation stuck with me over the years

[u/plentyofrabbits → u/_ficklelilpickle]

IVs can go in the inner elbow, but it’s not an ideal spot. It’s really easy for the catheter to get kinked and slow the drip when the IV is placed there, and depending on what he’s having done and how long he needs to drip for, it may be easier to go in his hand. I know when I get IVs I always ask them to go in my wrist.

[u/Fir3line → u/_ficklelilpickle]

I had an IV once put on my forearm, never again, that shit hurt for weaks. A im not squimish, ingive blood twice a year and dont even blink, but that one stuck with me, refused it ever since, use the back of the hand or whatever, bur forearm never again.

As for the joint, it was only ever used for drawing blood, either for samples or when i give blood

[u/Background-Library81 → u/manwhowasnthere]

6'3" and 225 pounds. As fit as an NFL running back.

[u/Nursesharky → u/manwhowasnthere]

Ok I’m a nurse (obviously). I get it when you bruise once unexpectedly. But once it happens, you know it will happen again. And if I were him I’d be fighting tooth and nail to never have a hand draw again - only places he can wear a jacket over. The ONLY thing I can think of is that he is getting much more frequent draws and must use his hand in the rotation. And Coumadin can be measured with a fingerstick that won’t bruise like that so it’s got to be something else.

Now if he is shaking hands like he’s hanging on for dear life, mmmaaayyyyyyybe it could cause some bruising like that but that’s a stretch.

[u/Theonewho_hasspoken → u/manwhowasnthere]

The cankles make me think congestive heart failure, the bruise is pretty constant over the last couple months.

[u/tracyinge → u/Theonewho_hasspoken]

Whatever it is , when he drops dead he'll be Maga's martyr forever. "Oh look what those libs did to the poor man, they frustrated him to death".

[u/DarthHiccups → u/tracyinge]

I know it'll come eventually. He's not immortal, and from the looks of him, in really really bad health. But it's taking so looong.

[u/MadRaymer → u/DarthHiccups]

The fact that he's talking about his heaven scorecard when I've never heard him mention the afterlife before makes me think he knows something. Also JD was looking at him with a shit eating grin today like he can't wait.

[u/beasty0127 → u/manwhowasnthere]

Well he most certainly had a heart attack during covid and after he was forced out of the Whitehouse the first time. Possibly, leading to a couple mini-strokes. Anyone that can't see his health is so far in the ditch are blind or not willing to accept reality.

[u/turningsteel → u/beasty0127]

You’re probably right and I say that not because I see any evidence of these specific things having happened but because he made a huge deal about Biden hiding health issues and as we know, every accusation is a confession.

[u/nochinzilch → u/[deleted]]

He’s losing weight. Looks like death.

[u/ugotmedripping → u/manwhowasnthere]

Dr Spaceman, he’s very good.

[u/According-Mention334 → u/manwhowasnthere]

Agreed it’s likely an anticoagulant like a DOAC, Eliquis? Likely for Atrial Fibrillation which is the most common arrhythmia for the elderly and he is elderly. His ankles are likely not just venous stasis but signs of Heart Failure. He is not a well man physically and mentally he not only demonstrates a personality disorder but significantly Cognitive Impairment or Dementia. He has no business running anything.

[u/dBlock845 → u/manwhowasnthere]

This bruise has been in the same spot for months off and on though. My mom has super thin skin and bruises easy, but they only last a couple of weeks. When on blood thinners, they can last up to a month. The bruise being in the same spot is suspect to me, like it's for a hand IV.

[u/RadiantReflexion]

Apparently they were unable to obtain a shade that matched his skin due to tariffs

[u/yogtheterrible → u/RadiantReflexion]

I imagine his hands were pale when the makeup was applied and then after walking around they became red.

[u/DrocketX → u/yogtheterrible]

If Trump were in any way a normal person, I'd feel that's a reasonable assumption. Given how sloppily he slathers on orange tanning cream, though... The conversation probably went roughly: "Hmm, this seems a little light. Do we have any... Eh, you know what, fuck it. Whatever. "

[u/HauntedCemetery → u/DrocketX]

For whatever reason its not even tanning cream or fake tan any more. He just straight up uses weird burnt orange makeup.

Fake tan lasts for days, frequently weeks. Trump goes from dark orange to looking like his own ghost, back and forth, depending on the time of day.

[u/SaltandLillacs → u/RadiantReflexion]

Do they have no one who can color match him? Get Sephora on the phone. They’re not even trying with Trump under boob white.

[u/causal_friday → u/SaltandLillacs]

If Republicans could color match there wouldn't be the "Republican makeup look".

[u/gexckodude]

Every criticism they ever made, child rape, corruption, contempt for our county, contempt for our way of life, too old to govern…. Was about themselves.

[u/Yamza_ → u/gexckodude]

Always has been.

[u/mcphisto2 → u/gexckodude]

Every accusation is a confession.

[u/bacon_cake → u/mcphisto2]

This always seemed like such a stupid thing concept to me. Why on earth accuse someone of the very thing you're doing?

Yet they've done exactly that. Bizarre.

[u/evangelist-789 → u/bacon_cake]

because then they can justify or shrug off the most heinous things by just saying „well, everybody is doing it.“

it‘s working and one of the reasons why the population has become so numb.

[u/Hobbes604]

He just can’t do a convincing cover up of anything

[u/swarmofbzs → u/Hobbes604]

It's a democrat hoax ! I've never worn makeup a day in my life!

[u/Smaptimania]

Not wearing a tie either - probably because he's been having trouble breathing. And the hat on indoors tells me he didn't do his hair this morning. Between that and how gaunt his face is getting and his talk about wanting to go to heaven I think he's not long for this world and he KNOWS it

[u/lxdc84 → u/[deleted]]

Swollen ankles!

[u/relytbackwards → u/Smaptimania]

I really wonder what will happen once he dies, especially if he dies in office. It couldn't be as bad as it is already right?... Right!?

[u/rightintheear → u/relytbackwards]

Does the spell break when the cult leader dies?

I’m really asking.

[u/NeverendSuperior → u/rightintheear]

I think the hardcore MAGA faithful will devolve even further and turn him into a martyr, more than they have. They’ll splinter off into their own thing, rally against the Washington establishment (both Democrats and GOP), and just spend their time voting 3rd parties or abstaining, or writing in Trump family names.

But I really doubt they’ll rally behind JD Vance. Nobody has the charisma and pull that Trump has on these people, not even his own kids. When he goes, they’ll be the loud, ignorant, belligerent drunk in the corner of the bar that just doesn’t stop.

The people that voted for him but aren’t as indoctrinated into MAGA world will probably still vote for the GOP across the board.

In all honesty, the spell won’t break for all of the hardcores, but the numbers will drop I’m sure.

[u/ThreeDogs2963 → u/NeverendSuperior]

It’s my opinion it would turn into an actual religion. After all, when messy reality isn’t around to contradict their make-believe idol, they can crank up the delusions full force. And I’m guessing Vance is smart/evil enough to play into that.

They’ll be praying to Trump.

It’s that far gone.

[u/Kermit-Batman → u/rightintheear]

I imagine it would be factional? Each person of note staking their claim.

[u/DimbyTime → u/rightintheear]

There’s going to be a huge mass of his cult followers who think his death is a deep state hoax. Like Elvis. Or Hitler.

[u/le127 → u/relytbackwards]

After the cleanup from the parade and fireworks is finished we'll be able to get a better idea.

[u/LackingUtility → u/Smaptimania]

“Am I that man who lay upon the bed?” he cried, upon his knees.

The finger pointed from the grave to him, and back again.

“No, Spirit! Oh no, no!”

The finger still was there.

[u/a_little_hazel_nuts → u/Smaptimania]

When he said "They say I'm not doing good" before going on his rant of getting into heaven, "they" could mean doctors.

[u/GhostOfFreddi → u/a_little_hazel_nuts]

He didn't say "they", he said "I'm hearing I'm not doing well".

[u/lincolnssideburns → u/a_little_hazel_nuts]

I though that little slip was the most telling part

[u/plumberdan2 → u/Smaptimania]

Jesus can you imagine JD Vance as president with musk and Thiel pulling his strings....

[u/Smaptimania → u/plumberdan2]

Vance has zero charisma and his duties as VP seemingly consist of going on vacation every two weeks. I don't see Trump's cult of personality enduring once he's gone

[u/HistoryOnRepeatNow]

Someone get this man to a Sephora

[u/CheesyRomanceNovel → u/HistoryOnRepeatNow]

Seriously. That shade isn't even close to being the right one.

[u/hexiron → u/CheesyRomanceNovel]

His makeup shades have never been close to the right ones

[u/ohheyitsgeoffrey → u/HistoryOnRepeatNow]

Yea, hard to see how this is any better than just showing off the bruise.

[u/SamPorterBridgez]

Trump rapes kids

[u/CelestialFury → u/SamPorterBridgez]

Epstein and Trump were best friends for decades and rape buddies where they tag teamed CHILDREN together.

[u/_bibliofille]

I'm not a doctor and I can't diagnose shit, but I used to work in Healthcare and his appearance and symptoms scream congestive heart failure. Say it's so.

[u/phxbimmer → u/_bibliofille]

I mean they more or less admitted it when they revealed that he has chronic venous insufficiency which was really just the nicest way they could say heart failure.

[u/ThaCarter → u/[deleted]]

What's the timeline actuarially speaking?

[u/aboynamedculver → u/ThaCarter]

With newer drugs like Entresto, he’ll probably live through his term and then some.

[u/Secure_Charge_4736 → u/aboynamedculver]

Shit.

[u/Jason_Kinkade → u/Secure_Charge_4736]

This win doesn't belong to natural causes, I want democracy and the American people to handle it.

[u/ahotpotatoo → u/Jason_Kinkade]

At this point, I’ll take what I can get. It’s been made very apparent that the justice system is not ever going to do anything to this man.

[u/swarmofbzs → u/ahotpotatoo]

It's become very apparent that all the people that surround him are happily scrambling to shove every dollar they can squeeze out of us into their greedy pockets. Gotta hurry up! He could drop at any moment and then the cash grab might be over!

[u/DefsNotAVirgin → u/aboynamedculver]

damn you modern medicine

[u/aboynamedculver → u/DefsNotAVirgin]

Yeah I truly hate the guy, but I don’t want anyone holding their breath. If that’s his primary medical issue, he’ll be around.

depends on a lot of factors really, such as what stage of heart failure you're in, what the underlying causes are etc. my grandma died of congestive heart failure and that was almost five years after getting the diagnosis. So, don't start chilling your champagne yet, but feel free to encourage him to have as many big macs as he want

[u/fence_sitter → u/[deleted]]

...right-sided failure is primarily associated with peripheral edema in the lower limbs... -Googling

That's unfortunate.

[u/starmartyr → u/phxbimmer]

When the Chernobyl disaster happened, Soviet state media reported that there had been an incident at the power plant. Soviet citizens realized that it must be really bad because they wouldn't have reported it at all otherwise. This feels very similar.

[u/SenorBurns → u/starmartyr]

Yeah. If it were something mundane, they wouldn't have copped to CVI but instead would have gone their normal gaslighting route. "You must be blind! [holds up AI image of slender ankles] These are his ankles! Slim as a Major League pitcher's! Typical media, make up lies about the president's beautiful perfect ankles when you should be talking about how bad immigrants are!"

[u/starmartyr → u/SenorBurns]

Exactly. If they are saying anything remotely negative about Trump it's because the truth is both really bad and impossible to ignore.

[u/NeverendSuperior → u/phxbimmer]

Them admitting something was wrong with him was the tell that something is REALLY wrong with him. They’d never admit to anything, they’d straight up say he’s healthier than God, even if your eyes showed you otherwise. Yet they said that he has something wrong with him. Hell, they probably only announced that because the problems were probably going to start getting more noticeable and undeniable real fast

[u/VanceKelley → u/_bibliofille]

Hard to fathom what Americans were thinking when they decided the best person to be president was an obese 79 year old with a family history of dementia, who is also a convicted criminal, adjudicated rapist, and pedophile.

That choice shows Americans to be idiots, incapable of rational thought.

[u/tracyinge → u/VanceKelley]

Well, 70 million of the Americans at least.

[u/onomatopeapoop → u/tracyinge]

Plus 90 million who declared they were A OK with all of this by abstaining.

Sane and/or decent people are a minority in the US, and we need to come to terms with that fact.

[u/blackkitttyy → u/onomatopeapoop]

It blows my mind that in such a polarized time 90 million people did not vote

[u/Phalexuk → u/_bibliofille]

Dying before being brought to justice is too good for him. But its the best we can hope for

[u/JessieJ577 → u/_bibliofille]

It would make sense why he is randomly rambling about heaven. All the treatment we can assume he’s receiving at his age is probably reminding him of his mortality

[u/runawaydoctorate → u/_bibliofille]

That's not necessarily a killer. It makes a patient more vulnerable to other killers, but CHF alone isn't a guaranteed trip to the morgue. Still, it's not a joke and if he has a CHF diagnosis some serious discussion about whether or not he should remain in a very stressful job should be had.

[u/ShamelessLeft → u/runawaydoctorate]

That's the thing tho, how stressful can his job be when he doesn't care about what happens to the country? What's probably stressing him out is everyone knows he's a pedo.

[u/deesea → u/ShamelessLeft]

So you’re saying if we keep calling him a pedo he will die faster? Dope I’m in.

[u/Nwcray → u/runawaydoctorate]

Right. But all of a sudden, Trump is very concerned about some checklist to get into heaven. He’s got problems with his cankles, and his own team finally admitted to circulatory concerns with the chronic venous insufficiency.

Especially the heaven checklist - I think Trump thinks his end is near.

My dad did that… very selfish person his whole life. Then all of a sudden, became very concerned about getting into heaven. He was gone about a month later. So I could totally be reading my own perspective into it.

[u/Unlimited_Bacon → u/Nwcray]

My dad did that… very selfish person his whole life. Then all of a sudden, became very concerned about getting into heaven.

When Trump said that I was immediately reminded of Bill Cosby - not because of the way they both raped women, but because of Cosby's bit about his parents trying to get into Heaven by being nice at the end of their lives.

My children love my mother, and I tell my children, that is not the same woman I grew up with...That is an old woman trying to get into heaven now.

Edit: I got the above quote from an AI summary and regret using it. Here is the actual quote from the rapist's performance:

my children think that my mother is the most wonderful person on the face of the earth and I keep telling my children, that's not the same woman I grew up with. you are looking at an old person who's trying to get into heaven now.

[u/War_machine77 → u/runawaydoctorate]

Don't forget the fact that he eats like Eric Cartman. I'm honestly surprised that his heart hasn't popped like a zit yet.

[u/Abstract__Reality → u/runawaydoctorate]

The only thing stressing him is the Epstein report. He's too stupid to be stressed about the actual job. 

[u/reluctant_spinster]

His tiny hands look really swollen and red.

His face looks busted.

Dude is spewing more bullshit than usual.

Bro is close to death and I'm very excited. Can't wait.

Can you imagine if he goes before Biden?? Trump would roll in his grave when his ghost finds out.

[u/Fecal_thoroughfare → u/reluctant_spinster]

His palms are red-y, 

Frail and weak, tie is heavy, 

There's vomit on his suit already, 

Hamberder covfefe 

[u/Enderoth]

That’s so wild. How about the Epstein Files though?

[u/elFistoFucko]

Here's what is really crazy to me:

We have the not only the CIA's incredible ability with disguise and makeup, but also Hollywood and even tik tok trump supporting makeup influencers and this is the best they can come up with?

[u/AutumnSparky → u/elFistoFucko]

this does make me wonder if he really is surrounded by such yes men, that nobody has pointed this out.  

it's happened before.  I like to think someone's actually in charge... I could be wrong.

[u/lovemypups21 → u/elFistoFucko]

Well the be fair, the tik tok influencers have never heard of the term “blend” before. Look at their neckline.

[u/AnonymousCelery → u/[deleted]]

And laugh at all the pearl clutching magats crying how disrespectful it is

[u/myfakesecretaccount → u/AnonymousCelery]

Fuck them. The same people who made fun of Paul Pelosi being beaten with a hammer.

[u/0neshoein → u/AnonymousCelery]

They’re also gonna come up with all kinds of conspiracy theories about how it was the deep state and democrats that made him die of heart disease.

[u/Bopo_Descending]

This is a pretty long article, and it brings up a lot of interesting points about the state of Trump's health.

But what it completely ignores, and I didn't see anybody mention it in the comments (not that I looked that closely), is that the President of the United States is wearing on his own head a hat that says "Trump Was Right About Everything".

Yes, that man is wearing a hat that refers to himself in the third person on his head during an official Presidential press conference, and of all the things it could say it says "Trump Was Right About Everything". And look at this entire cabinet! They're acting like that is a completely non-lunatic thing for a head of state to do.

[u/Rotanen]

Is he doing his own hand makeup?

[u/CheesyRomanceNovel → u/Rotanen]

I mean, I've always assumed he does his own face make-up as well due to how orange he is...

[u/KohlsCashOfficial → u/CheesyRomanceNovel]

VF - Trump Reportedly Does All His Own Makeup

[u/HunterDude54]

It will be white gloves next?

[u/nyyanksfan81]

Dude needs that much makeup to make him look like a living human being

[u/Areshian → u/nyyanksfan81]

And fail

[u/Ozzel]

I swear, every time I see a headline that starts with “Trump, 79…”

[u/nw2]

Release the files

[u/Ok-Walrus2858]

Hell is waiting for him.

[u/tmhowzit]

is that concealer or spackle?

[u/Garhobble]

The hand bruising and edema is how my grandad looked when he was dying of blood cancer and his body couldn't make its own platelets anymore.

[u/Quietdogg77]

Trump won’t be around long enough to face charges in the Epstein scandal.

Trump worshiped his mentor, pill head and alleged pedo Rush Limbaugh.

It’s no wonder Rush Limbaugh’s story came to a tragic ending. Based on Trump’s obese appearance, signs of edema and dementia, he will likely suffer a similar fate.

Trump is a lot like Limbaugh who he admired. Limbaugh had a large base who feverishly listened to his radio show as he regularly spewed hatred like a toxic broken sewer.

Limbaugh died a slow, horrible death by cancer. Some say it was inevitable that the hatred he spewed helped his cancer grow until it ended his life much earlier than the age Donald Trump is today.

Like Trump, Limbaugh’s stock in trade was bigotry and offense.

Trump is following Limbaugh’s tactics as he successfully insulted his way into the White House in the most vile and profane ways imaginable.

Like Limbaugh’s listeners, Trump’s base loved it. The more Trump insults and belittles his opponents, the more they cheer him on.

Yet like Rush Limbaugh, no one escapes karma and it’s very obvious the poison in Trump’s tongue is also wreaking havoc on his mind while it seeps into his brain.

As Trump foolishly continues down the path of idiocy, bigotry and racism it’s very likely he too, is not long for this world.

Will he meet with the same fate as his hero, Rush?

Limbaugh’s lifeless carcass was discovered in his bathroom on a floor covered in his own shit at his home.

His body was rigid in the grip of rigor mortis.

His eyes were frozen open and his face had a look of fear.

His mouth was encrusted by flies and locked wide open as if he had been screaming in pain and horror for hours.

According to reports, hungry maggots were feasting on Limbaugh’s rancid tongue.

[u/Chezzworth → u/Quietdogg77]

Manifesting 🥂

[u/No-Departure-899]

Donald is a pedophile.

[u/geriactricpillbug]

Trump rapes kids.

[u/comosedicewaterbed]

How embarrassing

Where are the Epstein files?

[u/spicycupcake3]

Can we please just elect a president who isn't on the brink of death? Someone who cares about my young children and their future children? We need an age limit on anyone in public office.

[u/IWasBannedYesterday]

You're using your winter tone concealer, dumbass.

[u/Qlide]

Every time I see his name and age in a headline, I feel disappointed it isn't the one.

[u/Middle_Reception286]

Man.. he cant possibly be with us much longer. He is looking fucking almost dead.. and the stress on him with everything he's doing while being mentally ill and unfit for duty.. its gotta be weighing on him.

[u/cwilly57]

Guess this is proof that if you lie enough you can rot from the inside out.  

[u/CelticSith → u/cwilly57]

Just like Mitch 'the lich' McConnell

[u/Just_Finding1499]

The man is so fucking disgusting.🤮

[u/DevilYouKnow]

he's so good at cover ups

[u/Traditional-Sea-2322]

Everyone go watch videos of him before the election and compare them to him now; holy fuck did he age and FAST. 

[u/DinkandDrunk]

It’s like when a kid steals their mother’s makeup to cover up a hickey. Same energy.

[u/omniraden]

He recently met with his handler, who probably told him to help Russia in Ukraine, else putim would release Epstein info. Blackmail puts a lot of stress on a person.

[u/IndyPoker979]

Gavin Newsom should walk around with the same makeup...

[u/HoonterOreo]

The orange spray tan will never not be incredibly weird and idk how this shit ever became so normalized

Everything about them is hella weird

[u/veridique]

This man is not healthy.

[u/Earlyon → u/veridique]

I wish he wasn’t as healthy as he is.

[u/taevans701]

The best line in this article is the response which says orange guy is always shaking hands with so many people. The only people he shakes hands with are usually dictators or the super wealthy that are kissing his ass. If you look at any of his rallies or whatever you want to call them. His stage is set 30 to 50 ft away from the people. Regardless if he was president or not. This is not a guy that will go into the crowd like JFK would do when he got off the plane on stops or Obama or Clinton would do. Even George w. Bush was like that even though I think it was more of a show. But this guy is the least transparent and friendly to anybody he meets. He is not out there shaking hands.

[u/Dumpenstein3d]

Are we sure thats not just Big Mac sauce?

[u/coffeevsall]

Great. Release the Epstein files

[u/RJ5R]

Even Steve Bannon said this guy is circling the drain lol
