Last Friday There Was A Story About Trump Appearing To Have Wet His Pants In Tennessee.....

I followed the link to the story: Internet Speculates After Trump Appears to Have Wet Pants at Tennessee Disaster Meeting

I believe there were pictures of Trump from the behind and it showed a very big damp spot in the crotch area and then a close up of the damp spot.

I thought that this would get a lot of play here on DU - and lo and behold - I didn't see anything after that one post.

Was that story and those pictures discredited? Was it a hoax and a photoshopped job or did it really happen?

I spent alot of time in nursing homes
And taking care of my mom ....many diapers there.
Unless the sun does shine out his ass hole
Thats no shadow.
Plus some leaks dry quick on some fabrics.

They had video from right after of him walking. But sniffing and touching does sound gross

1:02 is not a scene in the prayer circle.

The image in the photo of the prayer circle does not look like a shadow to me, but what do I know? Since he is visiting the aftermath of a tornado, perhaps he sat on something wet at some point?

In any case, while I would love to have some concrete evidence or reliable source confirm the man wears adult diapers (not that there's anything wrong with it, but it would kill him for people to know), I don't think we are there. The only "adult diaper" source I know if is Noel Casler, who reports he wore adult diapers on the apprentice. Don't have a sense he's reliable.

Same people, same configuration facing him, same order, same hand positions.

Aside from which, if you've played with diapers before you know that diapers leak around the leg holes, not directly in the middle.

I figured, at worst, he sat on something wet. But it is probably just a shadow enhanced in Photoshop or some such.

We have enough real horrors with his systematic demolition of executive branch agencies and multiple personality disorders (narcissistic, antisocial, paranoid...) to pay attention to this sort of stuff.
