Disappointed too many times.

See what happens.

And nothing bad happens to him.

Fainting is not always a non-event.

Hope remains ...

See, there’s always a way.

I remember too many disappointments myself, starting with "hanging chads" in Florida.

Thing is, after the "living-dead Don" we get to deal with Peter Thiel's Frankenstein monster. I'm not looking forward to that either.

I like to think that once trump drops, the movement will for the most part, dissolve!

for over 10 fucking years.

he just continually keeps breathing. aargh

He was an erratic loon the first term. Who knows what he is really being treated for.
Let's focus on the Epstein prize.

I think I posted 3-5 months in August, but my searches on past posts are a fail

Trump looked reasonably sharp at the September 3 press conference when he announced the future location of the Space Force operations center in Huntsville, Alabama. At the end of the press conference, he dramatically announced breaking news that a that drug-ferrying boat had been blown up.

I think the decision to blow up a boat (almost ANY boat) was pre-planned in order to show Trump's supposed competency.

They’ll prop up his dead carcass in front of the camera, and carry on like nothing happened.

Levitt will pontificate about how great Trump looks and how stupid we are for thinking otherwise.

MARTYR like never before in U.S. History

McDonald's will be McTrump, etc.
Dairy Queen will be Dairy King Trump.

on some government buildings.........

Some changes will take time. But once he leaves the center-stage, I suspect he may go into hiding for whatever’s left of his time on Planet Earth.

I suspect that the public will start noticing the absence.
“Hey what’s up with Trump?
“How come we don’t hear from him anymore?”
“Is Donald still around? He’s usually all over the news…”
… and so forth.

and yet here he is still going strong. I agree, we don't seem to be that lucky, the worst of the world seem to need help to leave us.

What he needed. Just speculation of course.

Predictions about the stock market.
Predictions about someone's health.

The track record of accuracy of such predictions approaches zero.

The Republicans will install some one, just as bad, most likely someone worse, who isn't constantly going off the rails, but operating in the shadows, behind smoke and mirrors.......

He’s not going anywhere.

The author claims that Trump's sexual comments about his daughter are because of his dementia. But he was saying stuff like that decades ago.

Same with a lot of the other claims. He has pathologically lied his entire life, you can't blame his recent lies simply to dementia.

Sure, the author might be on to something about the Kinsunla injections. Others have speculated the same and there's good reason to think they might be right. The MRIs as part of the treatment are a new angle I hadn't seen.

But the over the top sensationalism just detracts from these points.

He even made sexual references about his daughter when she was still a baby and as you say, he's been a compulsive liar his entire life.

As for the rest, it does make sense, but every person is different, so I wouldn't predict how long he has to live.

Trump wondered aloud if his second daughter would eventually have her mother's bust size.

What kind of father talks about his daughter that way? And why did mainstream journalists keep interviewing that demented creep?

with ivanka where they're both asked what do you two have in common, krasnov said sex his daughter said golf.

i personally believe he abused her. all the way.

I suppose that behavior from him became normal to her. Yet journalists just kept coming back for more. Even back then, there was no line he couldn't cross. Guess ratings were more important than integrity and principles.

it's not illegal." (You're allowed to talk that way, even about your own daughter.)

I ever heard Nixon say.

As for Trump, however, he talked like that way before he became president. He's always been a super sicko. I wish they would release the tapes from The Apprentice set.

The one where he could not tell a lie for 24 hours. I'd love to see such a spell put on Trump.

Besides, I don't want Peter Thiel's puppet to be president.

I just hope it happens before we get to the halfway point of Rump's term. That way the shortened term will still count as a full term for VD Chance.

to write the executive orders, etc. He is the bright, shiny distraction.

Trump's billionaire backers made him palatable enough (as truly disgusting as he is) to get elected, twice. Imagine what they can do for someone who isn't quite as loathsome as King-Kon?

The billionaires will never make Vance likable. They would have just made him President if they had that power.

I just hope its very painful.

Alzheimer’s patients can live many years after diagnosis.

My father was affected for six years from diagnosis to passing.

But the effects being noticed now are mild compared to what will happen in six months. He can’t hide it then.

My dad lived for six years as well. He took that medication to slow the progression of the disease. I was impressed when he called me to tell me Tim Russert had died. I hadn't heard, and was glad he remembered that I kept up with politics. He called another time to ask if I still played my cello. After six years he faded slowly. He slept more and more, and one day, he was just gone.

He might be gone, but his fan club will remain and they are the scourge on our country.

told me Trump had died. I kept telling them that he died before Thanksgiving, and they kept telling me no we are now in June. I kept arguing in the dream that it was November but the person kept telling me he died in June. Very strange dream but it seemed so real that I woke up thinking he was dead. Unfortunately he was still alive but I am keeping my hopes up that the June dream will come true.

Seeing him doing actual traveling.
Having to stand and speak coherently might be
a struggle.

n/t

Will he only go to Red states in the South? What about his golf? And his health care debacle, plus Epstein?

People with Alzheimer's usually live for more than 3-5 months, too, so I will skip the sensational stuff.

]

recall in the first term he never paused on the rallies. that's his life blood, his energy source. but he is enervated and physically unwell even as he is dealing with galloping dementia.

Of course I thought that man will never be president once upon a time.

I've actually been here since the early 2000s. But a certain group of people didn't like what I had to say on a certain subject to they harassed me until they got my other account suspended.

I'm a godless heathen, but if I thought it would help, I'd fall on my knees in a heartbeat.

Welcome.

They know how grossly unpopular he is and that if Trump dies at any point in the next two years, MAGA is finished. Playtime is finally over. That's why they're doing everything they can to keep their undeserved power.Steve Bannon knows something we don't. There's something about the events of the last 5 months that isn't adding up.

(I mean, speed it up?)

And I'm absolutely NOT suggesting that anybody do a Charlie number on the guy.

(The above is sarcastic and what we hippies call a joke...or is it a toke?)

there are tons of places to give someone an infusion. Most of them covered by clothing. So why would they infuse his hand knowing everyone was going to see the bruises?

Easy to get to.

The veins take a while to recover, which is why people on extended stays at hospitals (especially when older) usually keep the catheter in place as long as possible. If he is getting as many injections and blood draws as I suspect, his veins are probably shot.

I also have to wonder if his extremities (fingers/toes) are bruised or purple. If he's on Lasix for congestive heart failure (which I suspect he is), the evidence will be in his feet, especially purple toes, swollen feet, psoriasis of the skin.

...in the early days of my MS diagnosis, they put in on the back of my hand.
They just wrapped it after each day's infusion with that stretchy, self-sticking tape.
Of course, that was just a six day thing.
If it was a longer regime, they may have put it somewhere else.

Perhaps, instead, I can fly multiple flags covering the entire height of the flagpole; that way, on average, they are at half-mast!

early alzheimers.

I believe he was in the early stages during his first term, if not earlier. He is at least as far gone as my mom was when she died. She lasted all of about 6 years after we realized what was wrong.

kind of medical professional?

3-5 days would be so much more helpful.

.... I did some internet sleuthing and there isn't anything more than anonymous assertions.

he studied at Medical College of Georgia (impressive history !), and saw the word neurodegeneration before fb blocked me.

with 14 yrs experience working with dementia patients. Becoming a PT is rigorous and I'm sure they learn a lot on the job interacting with PCPs, specialists and families. I know I learned a lot just from being a caregiver for my parents.

have to go through the videos (which still did not indicate his name) to find out anything about him, regardless of whose substack piece it was.

quotes originated. I clicked on the video of the bald guy and that was the source. He opened the video by introducing himself but not giving his name.

I'll take 3 to 5 months too.

If he dies, I’ll join the celebration, but I’m not expecting any particular outcome or timeline based on a blogger’s predictions.

...just sounds like the same old trump to me. He was this way 10 years ago.

... particularly in listening to other people, which he was never much good at anyway. There's certainly plenty of evidence for that.

I think it's because he has a hard time sleeping at night, we always hear T is up in middle of night.

I think they are hiding a bunch of physical problems with him but unfortunately he doesn't look to me like he will die soon.

saying this for TEN years.

Which is also a type of stroke.

This would explain the drooping right side of his mouth, and the need for 'advanced imaging'.

This is more appropriate for the National Enquirer.

I've seen so far, based on what the real facts that have been presented to date. It appears "No lies this time."

These speculations are becoming an almost daily occurrence. Something is obviously wrong with someone who rage tweets for hours in the middle of the night.

We shall see. Trump’s grand tour to publicize his big beautiful successes should be interesting. He and his enablers can’t possibly keep it together for the entire grand tour.

He was rage-tweeting at midnight throughout his first term, as well, so it's not like any of this is new. He's obviously not well, but it's to the point where I can't put a lot of stock in all of these predictions of his demise without a mountain of salt. He's like Emperor Palpatine rotting in his clone body, at this point. Or, a defenestrated cockroach, whose body lives on long after the head is gone.

I'll bet there are a lot of people who haven't seen the unvarnished Trump since last Nov.

If you merely look at video of Trump from March, the comparison to today is striking. Imho, he's got CHF. Lack of blood to the brain would certainly account for the listlessness and instant naps. It would also account for the swelling in his legs and perhaps puffiness around his eyes.

Polling going down and losing his popularity. He always has to be right, the one who is making things better in his mind. So to me it's all about his narcissism.

I have seen narcissistic rages and they aren't pretty. Any little thing can set them off but being told they are wrong, or criticized is the thing that usually sets them off.

Just to be sure.

Donald is a cartoon character. He has already cemented his place in American History, unfortunately. Hopefully his stint as POTUS will serve as a cautionary tale for the example of leadership we are passing along to our children and grandchildren.

Make it so

They could see that this was going to happen. So, they put in someone worse than the orange gibbon so that, when the time comes, they will get the 'iron dictator' that they so desperately want.

Our only hope is that he has managed to upset enough rethugs that they will want to lose him asap.

poor health have been reported for years and years now

what a coincidence...

Trump's family line is pretty long lived and many of these symptoms, he's had for years. Hell, I thought there was a decent chance he had one foot in the grave years ago too, but he'll probably make it to 90+ like his old man.

But like the cadaver of el Cid, they keep trotting something out that resembles him enough to keep the Republicans cowered and ready to vote for The Great Pumpkin to be the next Secretary of Agriculture.

Nm

That could mean he will not be around for the 250th? Or even his 80th Birthday?

He and his ass-kissers made fun of Joe Biden being the oldest POTUS. But in this case, Joe was aware of his surroundings, chose his words carefully, worked around his stuttering visibility, even was still taking jogs and riding bikes.

But it is becoming painfully clear that Trump is falling apart in real time for all to see. Pictures do not lie.

you can live a long time with dementia, but with Alzheimers your mind eventually forgets how to do things like eating and swallowing.

Funny typo!
