Trump was in Austin TX blabbering incoherently about not knowing Soudland very well and how

Soudland did not initially support him during the election (trump has a bee in his pants about this issue as he has ranted about it previously). Recall that Sondland gave his inauguration committee a MILLION bucks!

He had to resurrect the electoral votes soother. And he looks a bit alarmed. wide eyed.

I've been noticing how he uses his hands, palms out, fingers spread, like waving off something bad.

But they normally stay out of sight. The fact that the Doctor was right beside him and likely rode in the limo with him is unusual, I believe, at least I have never heard of the Doctor staying that close.

Honestly, I could care less if that Orange Asshole fall dead at one of his rallies. I would prefer that be just after republicans nominate him for 2020 to really fuck them up.

I saw a clip of him and Melania, standing alone, while paying respects at Bush Sr. funeral.

They were side by side, she was on his right, when he suddenly had a very strong face spasm, jerking his head back a bit.
Melania instantly sidestepped closer, and it was clear she was using her left arm and shoulder to keep his balance.
Then she slid her feet a small step backwards, he did the same, they kept slowly backing up, shoulder to shoulder, about 10 feet, towards the exit.

The thing was, her response to him was practiced. It was instate and smooth, while they continued to stare straight ahead, not once did she glance in his direction, or he in hers.

They all know there is something physically wrong with him. That scene did not take her by surprise at all.

Imagine you are standing next to a family member who suddenly is rocked with jerk.

What is the first thing you do? You look at them, instinctively.

that Melania spends most of her time at her parents' house which is close to her son's school. Other time is often spent in Trump Tower. I don't think she spends much time in the White House. Can't blame her.
