Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.


Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.


5. Only recent news is allowed.


Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.


No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.


If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.


All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body


For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

You are lying to yourself. He has the most comprehensive medical care on the planet. He is almost certainly having his vitals monitored 24 hours a day. They kept Cheney alive without a working heart 20 years ago.

Trump lived like absolute shit for the majority of his life, regardless of how well they keep an eye on him there are going to be underlying conditions they won't be able to predict. Also his brain is melting, as a general rule the body can keep going for a shit tonne of time so long as the mind works but not really the other way around at least amongst the elderly.

Which is why he's making up for lost time. He's trying to get that Kissinger and Chaney lifetime. Which is what I think this address is about.

He also absolutely seems like the type to leave a doctor's appointment about how his diet is killing him and get McDonald's on the way home.

Can you imagine being Trump's doctor? He's gotta be a fucking awful patient. Firing people who tell him things he doesn't want to hear is his favorite past time.

I'd be right tempted to prescribe him something that would help one thing but probably nuke his other organs. But I guess that's why I'm not a doc, more of a hacksaw medic, minimal training but I know just enough to keep someone from bleeding out.

Yes I'm aware of such technology, we can do it with kidneys too. Doesn't make it easy to maintain Trumps soft shitty body, bit like keeping a car working, gotta keep up maintance lest you deal with the unfixable sooner than expected.

Big deal, like most politicians, especially republicans, he didn't have one to start with...
