Donald Trump is very ill.

[kentuck]

He is unable to do his duties as the president of this country. When he is not on the golf course, you know something is terribly wrong.

Behind closed doors, they should be discussing the 25th Amendment.

Just as he has hid his health records from the public for the last 10 years, his supporters continue to hide the seriousness of his condition. He looks terrible. His face is swollen. He is covering up large bruises with make-up. He has a difficult time walking as his ankles are very swollen. His mental faculties have been dulled by his physical condition.

The people have a right to know about the health of their President. They were quick to accuse Joe Biden of dementia and incompetence, but they hide more serious health issues about Donald Trump.

[Haggard Celine]

1. I agree,

but he isn't ill enough to suit me just yet.

[brush]

97. I agree with most points in the OP but from the recent FIFA match video shows him walking...

Last edited Sat Jul 19, 2025, 03:56 PM - Edit history (2)

very well and even stopping to 'bow' at the booing crowd, which disappointed me as that came on the heels of reports of his ankles being so swollen he could hardly walk.

Don't get me wrong, I want the senile-adjacent MFer incapacitated too, but we have to bide our time as he's still able to walk well enough...dammit.

[CTyankee]

133. But if he goes, then we get you-know-who....

I think it's his insurance policy against getting thrown out of office on his ass.

[brush]

135. Insurance policy from what? TSF didn't put out this video. And none of the a-holes in the line of succession is a..

bargain.We are truly fucked as the SCOTUS 6 are in on it as they've given him immunity for 'official acts.'

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

141. No one belongs to the Cult of JayDee.

That doesn't mean the world wouldn't be better off without TACO's little fingers anywhere near the Red Button. I just don't see politicians and world leaders trembling in their boots at every utterance of The Bearded Boy.

[barbtries]

150. that's my opinion as well.

vance will not ever be as powerful as krasnov; he will not have the cult, republicans will not kowtow to him, even the SC will probably start making rulings that make sense again.

krasnov goes away and things will get better, not worse.

[brush]

171. None of those assholes in the line of succession are an improvement to the nation over trump.

What is going on here? Duers lobbying for trump to stay in power. We are now officially in Bizarro World.

[barbtries]

184. i think it's fear.

that the nation will go completely dark. but I think, without him around, some republicans will regain their spine. Some SC justices may even as well.

i don't think any of the people around krasnov are better than him. I think the situation will be more hopeful if he is gone.

[brush]

172. See post 171. Now we need the world trembling? What the fuck is going on?

[mindfulNJ]

174. He reminds me of the alien

in Men in Black...the corpse filled with cockroaches.

[Captain Zero]

3. Tarot Readers on YouTube are saying

He has around only 5 more months remaining in the White House. They won't say what, how, why. They just say 5 months and he won't be in the white house.

21. Tarot readers

So, we are down to tarot readers on YouTube to predict whether Trump makes it? You're kidding, right?

Maybe they can provide a few winning lottery numbers on YouTube, so I can quit my job?

[leftyladyfrommo]

23. Right now the astrologers are more accurate

than CBS. And they are a lot more fun.

If you hear of any predictions about something that will help any of our bottom lines, then let us know.

I have never used CBS as a prophetic guide to anything either.

It's because you don't understand this sense. You can't come at it from the direction in which you or most others do so. It's an expanded consciousness and it does require certain mental disciplines to get there.

At one time the human brain spheres didn't communicate with each other and consciousness had a very different way of working. Read The Origin of Consciousness and the Breakdown of he Bicameral Mind by Julian Jaynes as a starter.

on edit: So what I am saying is that the human brain evolves. What we are talking about is neuroscience. Yes, there are studies that document this. If you want the scientists and the bodies of work, I can give you a general direction in which to go, but I'm not going to do your work for you. To be clear: psychics and intuitives are operating at a higher level of consciousness. To get to that level, certain areas of the brain have to be developed. Certain mental focus exercises give one the ability to get to that level.

Is that clear?

Also, be aware that "time" is a fabrication of our particular dimension. This is why you can't get "time" from any psychic or even from a dream, which is another dimension.

Dimensions can be accessed through certain brainwave states, and this used to require decades of mental focus exercises. Now, with binaural beats and a few other methods, one can get to these states after a few months of practice, but even if you can get there, it doesn't mean you'll know how to navigate it.

[TnDem]

66. Sounds like divination and nonsense to me

Anytime you see things like:

you don't understand this sense

be aware that "time" is a fabrication of our particular dimension

and this used to require decades of mental focus exercises

It screams reality avoiding, ephemeral nonsense...I mean, re-read your post.

Just think, if the detainees in South Florida can mentally focus enough, maybe they and the homeless woman in Lexington KY can escape to another dimension...Hell, maybe we can all escape and then we won't have to plan for the mid-terms.

[NJCher]

73. as a writer, I

failed to draw a line here that you need to make sense of my post. It is:

Consciousness evolves.

I will go back and edit my post to put that in.

Of course it sounds like nonsense to you. The Encyclopedia Britannica looks like nonsense to a three-year old, too. You don't comprehend the intuitive sense because you either weren't born with the mental faculty to operate with it and/or you haven't devoted any time and effort to getting your mind to be able to work in an advanced level of consciousness.

I would ask, however, that you refrain from disrespecting divergent means of ascertaining what reality is when you don't understand this sense. At least put some effort into understanding it. It's like prejudice: certain white people don't like minorities because they've never been around them. Same applies to you and your M.O. for how others attain information.

Just so you know, for a time I tracked the predictions of these readers and a very high percentage of them did manifest. It is very time consuming work, however, and since it doesn't pay my mortage, I couldn't continue doing it. I did it long enough to know, however, that watching their predictions is not a waste of time.

[TnDem]

118. I see

So a person has to have an "advanced level of consciousness", otherwise, it looks like nonsense "like a three year old".

Maybe I should be been born with better "mental faculties", that way I could better understand "what reality is".

Of course, none of your replies above are condescending or disrespectful at all, correct?

I do agree with one thing you said, but I doubt those real trees can cloud your view of your ephemeral forest;

"...however, and since it doesn't pay my mortgage, I couldn't continue doing it..."

[Disaffected]

128. Sorry, but I'm calling BS.

"........I tracked the predictions of these readers and a very high percentage of them did manifest. "

Show us the methodology and data (at a "three year old level" so we all can understand it please).

ETA: And please report back in 5 months if the prediction of the OP was accurate or not.

[Disaffected]

125. Quote: Sounds like divination and nonsense to me

That's because it is divination and nonsense.

[3Hotdogs]

157. My ex says I'm psychotic. Where can I go to develop my powers?

[Jack Valentino]

167. The White House.

[Captain Zero]

50. At this point if it is the tarot that rids us of him, I'll take what I can get

Regardless, JDV is probably next up.

[Dem4ever1978]

60. Dem4ever1978

And that will be as bad or worse.

[leftieNanner]

166. I'm not sure

Some congress critters might actually grow spines and say no. JDV isn't their God.

[NJCher]

54. I object to this form of expression

down to tarot readers
If you don't understand the sense, at least don't dis it until you do understand it.

[OMGWTF]

61. It's not just YouTube -- all of the psychics on TikTok are saying it too.

[TnDem]

120. OH, TikTok too

More collegiate level soothsaying on TikTok.

[Jack Valentino]

168. But don't you hope they turn out to be right???

I certainly do.

[leftyladyfrommo]

144. It's probably more that people are just

picking up on all the things going on right now. Trump is a mess and you can sense it just by watching him. Our minds take all that subliminal info and put it together. We can feel it in the atmosphere all around us.
That information can be very accurate.

[kkmarie]

57. Also

I've seen the tarot card readers.
Dan Greany writer for The Simpsons is on TikTok saying Krasnov will be removed from office by the end of this year.
He says when Krasnov is removed no one will fight it. It will be accepted by all. He also said that although he doesn't know who will become president, he said jd and no one else in positions in this regime, will ascend to the presidency as they will have went up with Krasnov and they'll go down.

Here's a link to Tarot by the Bay. Also the reader said another medium is speculating that this may involve a recertification of the elections
Anyway
At 5:46 he plays the Dan Greany videos.

78. Hopefully the last four and a half of those last five months he is resting in state in the White House.

[Traildogbob]

83. Well

What he has accomplished the last 6 months, 5 more will end us. Then Vance and Miller will drive in the final spike.
And we will be subjected to 6 months of trumps burial and endless media of his great he was and how loved he is by the world.
Hundreds of parades as his rotting corpse lies in our house cause they will never let him go.

[ancianita]

103. Destruction of anything democratic is no accomplishment whatsoever. No attempt at rewriting his history will change that

No matter how much fake pomp and circumstance his minions think is real, this one thing is true:
Rewriting his history will not erase the recorded and archived facts of his history of destruction.

One of his 'influencer' minions finally 'got' him and said the truth: "The liberals were right."

[tavernier]

92. I remember some very similar predictions, his first time around.

But unless he’s standing next to a window in the Kremlin, I’m not betting any money on it.

People are sick of him. If he's spouting off during the 2026 elections, Democrats win big

[dalton99a]

4. Unfortunately he will be like his father

So it will be a while

[rso]

16. Trump

His father wasn’t obese and most likely did not have the horrible diet that Donnie does.

[keep_left]

56. Yep...anyone remember this?

Trump's Mickey D's feast on his private 757. Corey Lewandowski said this occurred on Trump Force One on the regular.

Trump's fast-food feast occurred right after his announcement at one of his rallies that he and RFK Jr were going to "Make America Healthy Again". By the way, RFK Jr has a 20-ounce bottle of what looks very much like regular (full sugar) Coke.

[bucolic_frolic]

6. The American people deserve to know who is running the country

because it sure ain't Donald Trump. His chiefs and cabinet secretaries? A triumvirate - Miller, Bondi, Patel? These people have been cut loose from accountability as long as they destroy government it's good to go.

[dalton99a]

10. It is Stephen Miller by all accounts - the cabinet secretaries defer to him on key decisions

Nowadays Trump only cares about things that affect him personally - business prospects, bribes, the Epstein case, etc.

[Jvp]

25. Its is crazy Stephen Miller (white house bully)

Someone should run the video of Stephen Miller in high school ranting about the unfairness of having to pick up his trash at school when there are paid custodians to do that job! He has crazy hair also! Over and over and over!

[dalton99a]

37. Yep. Miller's agenda is simple: 1) Install a fascist dictatorship and 2) Reduce the nonwhite population

[rubbersole]

41. Sadly, it seems to be working.

[Hekate]

114. What video of Miller in high school? Classmates corroborated what he said, iirc, & he was already awful

Also — what crazy hair? He’s got male-pattern baldness.

No wonder they're focusing on accusing Joe Biden's tenure. At least Biden was a thinking, intelligent being.

79. Thanks for mentioning Russ Vought.

I think he's largely responsible for the non-immigrant chaos, like the lawsuits, Executive Orders, the Big Ugly Bill, shutting off the money spigot to anything of value or that helps people, and much of the day-to-day decision making. His role is to actualize all he can of Project 2025.

[lildDemz]

104. Vought is a true Believer

(and evil). Miller is just ambitious(and evil).

[sop]

8. It's obvious Trump is unwell.

He'll likely be hospitalized any day now, then resign under murky circumstances. One can hope, right?

[Bmoboy]

11. He will NOT resign

A malignant narcissist cannot admit they were ever less than perfect.

[sop]

17. Trump will sign anything if they hand him a Sharpie and call him "Sir!"

He'll probably be too far gone to realize what he's signing. His handlers will build a recreation of the Oval Office at Mar-a-Lago where he can sit and sign fake EOs still believing he's president.

[viva la]

13. Arrgh, unfortunately--

that will make J.ust D.espicable Vance president.

[rso]

18. Vance

But Vance doesn’t have the cult-following that Trump has.

[LuvLoogie]

62. Vance will take the bigotry of the Id that is trump's MAGA

Last edited Sat Jul 19, 2025, 03:02 PM - Edit history (1)

and transform it into the bigotry of the Ego. He will take trump's racism and morph it into an elitist intellectual cult where MAGA will deme themselves scholars of supremacy.

"Look at how smart JD is!"

Without trump they will look for anyone to keep them "on top." They'll hold the men with fascist Barbies and the women will follow the men.

JD has even less problem lying than trump. He is the Terminator.

[viva la]

117. And he is willing to suggest that his in-laws and his wife and his own children are....

less than real Americans.

Yeah, the in-laws with PhDs are not as good Americans as his cough hillbilly forebears? Oh, right, the hillbillies (that was his term) are white. And they are descended from other white people!
"Americans with Civil War ancestors have greater claim to US, Vance says."

Umm, you mean also the ones who fought on the ENEMY side?

gotta ask this-- which group is going to contribute more to the US we have now? Hmm, the microbiologist-college provost and her husband the aerospace engineer?
Or his ma and MeeMaw who set his Peepaw on fire?

Live in hope.

Besides he is 79, does not exercise, and his dinners in Saudi Arabia were from
McDonald’s and they were 2 Big Macs, 2 Fillet of Fish, and a chocolate milkshake.

When I was getting a home care nurse she told me that he looked and acted like
some of her patients right before Alzheimer’s set in. The shuffling of his feet to
regain balance, the slurring of words, and lack of focus on the issues. She told me
he is very close to being out of it.

[KentuckyWoman]

102. Excuse me but

A 79 yr old - 4 fast food sammiches in one sitting? First off, how can he stay off the pot long enough to get any sleep that night. Good heavens .... Those poor maids.

[Botany]

108. He wears diapers and I am sure that he has nurse's aids that clean him up daily

But as far as I’m concerned he needs some McDonald’s French Fries with his meals too.

Btw about 10 years ago I was hungry and I had 2 McDonalds fish sandwiches… they tasted ok
but about 1/2 an hour later my later I was outside working on one of my wildflower native plant
projects about 10 minutes from my house and my body rejected that food and sent it out the
back door. I didn’t even get home. When I did I had to undress in the shower. Outside of a very
few egg McMuffin breakfast meals that has cured me of eating that garbage again.

[Botany]

124. Thanx for the correction

[Nasruddin]

170. The same old story

Maybe so but people have been saying he was on death’s door or about to be locked up for the obvious dementia from the middle of his 1st term…. Eight years ago.

Don’t count on any of it. People can ride CHF for years and he’s so stupid no one will know if he has dementia until it attacks the brain stem.

I personally don’t think his early departure is a good thing at all. Vance is a huge potential disaster because he is not presidential material.

[3catwoman3]

two, two, two republicon FAILS in one.

[Ohioboy]

22. I am a firm believer that a person's meanness can eat away at their general health

Trump's too busy rage tweeting to be healthy, both mentally and physically.

[NJCher]

53. true enough

I've seen people die of bitterness. It was etched in their faces.

Not a pretty sight.

I also think that thoughts somehow become manifest and when you have this many people hating, loathing, and disgusted with you, it cannot be good.

[Safe as Milk]

143. For a person with a conscience, that makes sense.

(IMO) Stress turned inward can do a lot of hormonal/enzymatic/biochemical damage. Sociopaths/psychopaths don't have that kind of internal mechanism because they don't have a conscience that would activate those biochemicals. That's why it's possible for Trump to effectively kill hundreds of thousands of COVID victims and still sleep soundly (if he can stay off the social media posts for a night).

[Silent Type]

24. Suspect all those who might take trump's place or move up in Party have a marketed up copy of 25th Amendment.

It may have to be scrapped as unrepairable.

[NJCher]

70. I read a book about suicides

This person who wrote it was a psychologist. Long story short, his brother committed suicide and the brother, the author of the book, did an exploration into what happens to people who commit suicide. There are some, like trump, who are so effed up that they cannot be brought up to standards, meaning the standards we have for human decency. This is post mortem, i.e., after the person has crossed over.

If I can find the spot in the book that describes it, I might copy and paste it here. That will take me a while, but it is quite interesting.

Suicide comes from self-hatred and from believing that one is not worthy of the rewards in life that the rest of us regularly reap. That's one explanation, anyway.

And yes, there are some that are in such bad condition they do something with them, but I can't recall what that was. Sort of like scrapped, but not entirely.

[CanonRay]

74. Michael Newton talks about it in Journey of Souls.

An armature to prop his corpse up at the press briefings. "He has laryngitis, so we're just going to play a tape of one of his earlier briefings".

[Maine Abu El Banat]

35. I totally agree

But the reason we have the most incompetent cabinet in history is so the 25th will not be an option

[hay rick]

36. Once you give his mental illness a pass the rest seems inconsequential.

The 25th amendment will deliver us directly into the hands of Peter Thiel's stooge, Mr. Vance. He's working on his makeup as we speak.

[live love laugh]

39. I don't believe that. I don't believe anything from them especially when they're so forthcoming.

He’s never disclosed his medical conditions before but all of a sudden we get a quick response and a full detailed report?

It doesn’t track.

[mgardener]

40. I remember in his previous term

When he was at I think, West Point graduation?
He had a hard time walking down a ramp.
Someone was walking right beside him.
He had trouble walking then, and that was over 4 years ago.

[Iris]

42. I think it is almost certain 25th is being discussed

The people he has surrounded bundled with are power hungry.

[Greybnk48]

43. You called it! I hadn't thought of that, but you're absolutely right.

Why isn't he out there every day, as usual? Brilliant, Kentuck1

[Mblaze]

45. A minor tweak

"They were quick to accuse Joe Biden of dementia and incompetence, but they hide more serious health issues about Donald Trump."

And they let his incompetence slide.

They have to prop up Putin's puppet until the Heritage Foundation can take complete control of all three branches of government, and totally tank the economy so they can create the Randian Hellscape of their fever dreams. The planet, and everyone on it, be damned.
It won't happen overnight, but there will be an abundance of slavestock available until both American continents look like Pol Pot's Cambodian Killing Fields from coast to coast.
Hyperbole? I don't think so. But keep your rose-colored glasses handy, 'cause it's gonna get worse before it gets better. LOTS worse.

There once was a leader named Trump,
Whose health had become quite a slump.
With face swollen and bruised,
His duties refused,
While whispers of twenty-fifth jumped.

He stumbled around looking pale,
His health was a hush-hush dark tale.
While Biden faced jeers,
For imagined health fears,
This President's truth hit a wall, to no avail.

don't care as long as he continues to spit out his hate rhetoric. Unfortunately for all of us his illnesses haven't stopped him from doing anything.

[republianmushroom]

65. Not ill enough, he is still consuming oxgyen.

[Raven123]

67. Also notable is how fast this problem arose

His April 2025 physical reported no edema, so this problem was not noted (hard to imagine if he had a physical), not reported (what’s new?) or of recent onset. That the problem was visible across the room (so to speak) suggests it isn’t mild. If he had no edema 3 months ago and does to that degree now, makes me wonder.

That in addition to the other observations makes me believe they are hiding something.

[Orrex]

72. Good. Maybe he'll just fucking die already.

Suffering as much as possible along the way, of course.

[twodogsbarking]

75. Skip the suffering and get right to it. Happy Saturday.

[AdamGG]

77. The said thing is...

Vance wouldn't be much better. But, without the cult of personality disorder, hopefully the Rethuglicans would be less unified.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

80. 25 47!!

[Doodley]

84. How many days left?

[IL Dem]

85. It's been two weeks since his last golf outing.

He has slowed down at it since the end of May.

[Captain Zero]

88. After he bombed Iran, he quit golfing because he knew they knew

where he plays.

[Dave Id]

89. Nothing new to see here.

History repeating itself. Republicans hid their chosen god Ronald Reagan's alzheimer's decease from the public as long as the could get away with it. He had been falling asleep in cabinet meetings, but they kept their mouths shut.

[SCantiGOP]

90. He looks and acts like a 79 year old man

Both he and Biden should have been ineligible, if we had a reasonable Constitutional limit on how old a candidate can be.
I had a friend who had a very important position with KPMG. They had a worldwide mandatory retirement age of 65, which applied to everyone including the CEO.
And before you label me as ageist, I am only 5 years younger than trump, and fully realize that I would not be as effective at my job as I was when I retired at 67, and certainly not as sharp as I was in my prime.

[Ferrets are Cool]

94. Not ill enough for me

[kairos12]

95. He is a catastrophic, creaking corpse

caterwauling calumnies.

[calimary]

101. I "c" what you did there!

[AKwannabe]

96. Not my resident!

Just saying
No fucks
Hope he explodes!

[Brainfodder]

100. The weight of his -karma finally approaching a concept of a heart attack?

No dignity for the office whatsoever.
Treating the govt like HIS business to make $ off of for sport?

[Attilatheblond]

106. It's a race between when he crashes and when the puppet masters need him out

They are probably almost done with him and ready with the bus they WILL throw him under, but Theil, et al, may still need a bit more time to put the last pieces of their dictatorship in place. Seems like Pam Bondi's job has been to hold him together until they are ready to crown JD, and that stress is really showing up on Bondi's face.

[Dulcinea]

169. I've noticed that about Bondi too.

She looks like she hasn't slept in weeks. Even her hair looks tired.

[Joinfortmill]

107. Yes, the hypocrisy is monumental.

[Ms. Toad]

109. If I had a dollar for every "Trump is ill" post -

I'd be close to millionaire.

[CountAllVotes]

110. Lymphedema

This is a problem that I myself have.

It gets severe when I travel on airlines, so I cannot travel on airlines any longer.

I ended up at an ER in Hungary as a doctor that was sent to my hotel room was worried that the swelling could be hiding a blood clot in my legs.

I went to the ER in Hungary and left because I didn't know what anyone was saying. Someone wanted 300EU from me so I managed to get a cab and flew home a couple of days later.

I arrived home in poor shape and was back at the ER again.

dump should not be traveling via air. That much I can say without hesitation as it is dangerous if you have lymphedema.

[Historic NY]

113. Is Donald Trump-il ?

[randr]

115. A thousand cuts are not enough

[Demovictory9]

119. Mentally..a sick man

[LetMyPeopleVote]

121. trump is NOT well

[FakeNoose]

122. As I understand it, the 25th Amendment must be invoked by the Vice President

If he's not willing, there's nothing the people/voters can do.

I hope I'm wrong about this.

[Pacifist Patriot]

137. Larger hurdle than that.

"Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President."

That "and" in the first sentence is critical. It must be the VP and a majority of the cabinet.

Here’s how it works:

Initiation: The Vice President and a majority of the Cabinet must submit a written declaration to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House stating that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of the office.

Effect: Upon this submission, the Vice President immediately assumes the powers and duties of the Acting President.

Challenge: If the President disputes the claim and declares he is able to resume his duties, he sends his own written declaration to Congress.

Resolution: If the Vice President and a majority of the Cabinet dispute the President’s declaration within 4 days, Congress must decide. A two-thirds vote in both houses is required within 21 days to keep the Vice President as Acting President.

[FakeNoose]

158. Thanks for this thorough explanation!

The VP must call the Cabinet together to discuss and vote on the 25A invocation. They can't meet without the VP calling it. But once the meeting is called, they need at least a 51% majority to proceed to the next step... which is notifying Congress.

This was written before the internet and 24 hour news coverage.

[Safe as Milk]

154. Here's an AI excerpt from Google:

The Vice President, along with a majority of the President's Cabinet (or another body designated by Congress), can declare the President unable to fulfill their duties.

[themaguffin]

123. He was very ill in January of 2017. Nothing will change until it's politically safe for Rs to do something.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

126. In the last 24 hours, trump has...

[Wednesdays]

127. Not gonna happen.

Even in the absolute worst-case scenario, they'll prop up his carcass a la "Weekend At Bernie's."

[liberalhistorian]

131. Don't worry, Im sure little Jakie Tapper

will get right on it? Right? Anyone? Anyone?

[Katinfl]

132. Much as I hate to admit it, I am afraid this is just wishful thinking on our part.

[lastlib]

138. "Donald Trump is very ill."

Best news I've heard today!

I truly wish him a complete non-recovery.

[Initech]

139. He can't even stand up right now.

But 25th amendment him and we're stuck with Vance.

[awesomerwb1]

140. Nonsense

If he were very ill he wouldn't be playing golf anymore.

[stollen]

145. That's why the GOP flips the script to zbiden

Trump is that sick.

[maspaha]

146. Jake Tapper is writing the book now!

[eppur_se_muova]

147. Positively Brezhnevian.

If someone were to post that on X, would MAGAts be convinced that was a flattering term ?

[wishstar]

159. He played last weekend and claimed to have won championship at Bedminster

https://www.palmbeachpost.com/story/news/trump/2025/07/14/trump-golf-championship-new-jersey-bedminster/85190196007/

[writerJT]

162. Ah, thank you.

That’s still just one out of the last four weekends, unless I’ve missed others. Thanks for filling in some info.

[barbtries]

149. he is demented as well,

not to mention a seriously damaged and malevolent, malignant narcissist. He is a nihilist.

he is on the edge of being so bad off his keepers and users and acolytes and sycophants are going to have to do something about it. seems like it never will happen, but when it does, it will seem like it happened in an instant. the only certainty is that it will happen. no one lives forever and krasnov is way closer to the end than to the beginning.

i just hope I live long enough to see it.

[WiVoter]

151. I've Heard It Said That Some People

are so sick, they have to die to get better. So, maybe he’ll get better? I

[Traildogbob]

152. He has always

Been a SICK son of a bitch. Now he is just old and a sick son of a bitch. And I fill certain his mother “was” a real bitch. To dump his ass on the world.

[COL Mustard]

155. Is Shady Vance

Measuring the draperies in the Oval?

[paulkienitz]

160. I'm confident they are discussing the 25th amendment in there.

A lot of GOP insiders have probably been itching to ditch Trump since before he was sworn in. They want a more sensible and common-sense single-party dictatorship without all the chaos and mess and financial ruin. But they're still scared of the rabid base, and the base follows him and no one else. They're desperately trying to balance the equation of whether their gains from tossing him into the Mt. Epstein volcano can balance their losses from having no one who they can depend on to rally the maga morons to support the new administration.

Trump has pushed other republicans into this same kind of dilemma many times before, and every time they've ended up concluding that they're stuck riding the Trump train all the way to the end of the line. But now, with his health failing. the track may finally be running out. And though they're very tempted, I doubt they'll change their ways... they probably won't make a move until he's actually in the hospital with a fair chance of never coming out.

[Evolve Dammit]

161. Not ill enough.....

[Emile]

164. He looks about the same to me. Here's his latest picture.

[flying_wahini]

178. All Trump has to do is make it thru the midterms. Then he will be GONE back to MAL.

That’s it. I Would bet you that he has a wheelchair in his private quarters and some portable o2 nearby,
His bruises are probably from the IV Lasix they are giving him. Probably wearing a catheter too. Keep him up and walking around without any gaffs on live TV. That’s it.

I’m thinking it’s why they are slinging all the Project 2025 wishlists out in succession so quickly.
They have the cover of the Epstein shit and the SCOTUS is still in their pocket. So they are doing it now asap. Added benefit is that they can all blame Trump when the Dems take back both Houses.


(Yes, eternal optimist here)

[biocube]

180. With GWB I always hoped he'd be okay

because Cheney was so much worse.

But I can’t fathom Vance being worse than Trump. The wost case scenario is he'll just do what the so-called "tech right" donors want. That’s bad, but at least he won't throw a grenade into the global economy with senseless tariffs or threaten to invade allies.

[displacedvermoter]

181. I believe he has syphilis

and I tell everyone I know that he does. I don't care if it is true or not, I like to tell people it is.
