My wife's cousin told her the reason she doesn't like Trump is because she was molested when she was a child and it broke her mind. This was after she pointed out that the autopen has been used by all Presidents for more than fifty years.

Imagine if Biden outlives Trump.

Bonus points if he visits him on his death bed just to rub it in some more.

If Biden outlives Trump, Republicans are going to somehow blame Biden or Obama or Clinton or the Woke Mob or the gays or the trans or the Democrats or the Mexican gangs.

They'll do that anyway

People have been saying JD Vance was spotted wearing a Donald Trump skin suit on a golf course earlier today.

Not a conspiracy theorist, but that legit barely looks like Trump. The nose, the hair, the brow, the jowls... Either that's Trump and it's just really bad lighting plus he's in really bad health and looks more like shit than normal, or that is a look-alike. 100% of the time that those stupid "look-alike" actor conspiracies are complete insane bullshit, but... dressing up an old fat man as Trump for a blurry photo from 100 yards away as proof of life is the kind of dumb shit the Trump team would actually try to pull to quell fears about a bedridden Dear Leader.

Edit: eh, strike that. I saw this photo elsewhere with better contrast. It is him. Still looks like a melting creamsicle though.

I don't know what their endgame would be, if it was a body double

There's no long term benefit (read: more than a few days) to having a body double. Given how much press the POTUS has, it would never work as a long term ploy.

The only "maybe" possibility is that they want to delay the news of his (potential) absence for a few days. Which i don't know why they would, and i doubt this would be their strategy


So, IMO, it is him, and he had a health scare or something similar

Got the perfect plot picked out

Perfect. Right next to the American Tardis.

The fittest most fit physical specimen of a man that any doctor has ever bore witness to has a health problem? Say it ain't so....

Bots and flayers go out to him

He is almost for certain laying in a hospital bed. His hand bruises indicate infusion/iv of some kind, and its been several weeks weve seen them. He is not one to shy away from cameras and, of course, golfing.

He may not be dying, but my guess is he had to have surgery for the vein disease.

Edit Took my tinfoil hat off, and they claim he did an interview Friday and supposedly golfed Saturday. Something still feels off to not be on camera doing stupid shit but maybe not hospital time yet.

I believe they mentioned chronic venous insufficiency, its not lethal and isnt iv though. Whether they spilled the truth or were covering up something else who knows.

[–] hitmyspot@aussie.zone 3 points 1 day ago

When have they ever been honest about his health. Or anything else?

[–] flandish@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago

one can only hope. nazis are pieces of garbage.

[–] limer@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 days ago

Last night I went to sleep hoping he was still missing today. So far I guess still missing?
