How come Trump is never, ever ill?

[IrishObserver]

Not a sniffle nor a cough since his 1st day in office. Physically and diet-wise he's a slob - yet he's never sick. It's very, very strange.

[BigmanPigman]

1. His entire body and brain is toxic.

Nothing could live in that environment of toxicity, not even the strongest germ.

[Polly Hennessey]

2. I wonder, too.

Maybe, he is a secret salad eater. No, he is a slob. Why is his health not affected?

[JI7]

4. not based on how he looks physically

[meadowlander]

3. He works three days a week and sleeps in until noon on those days.

[Hekate]

5. Really? He sniffs constantly. His pupils are extremely dilated in bright light. He shuffles ...

...and has an old man stoop. His balance is off. He speaks in word-salad. Many with personal and professional experience have noted all the signs of senile dementia. There are also signs of prescription drug-abuse aside from the dilated pupils and sniffing -- very likely a steady diet of uppers.

Bejesus, as my mother used to say. Are you looking at the same man the rest of us are? He's incapable of doing the job, and the only reason he is still there is an unholy alliance of GOP politicians and oligarchs intent on destroying the republic and looting the Treasury.

[sprinkleeninow]

12. I dint want to say. You mentioned an unholy alliance--

one of them BELIAL?

[Hekate]

16. Maybe when younger he went to a crossroads at midnight to make a deal with the Devil...

[sop]

17. He is the devil.

[Buns_of_Fire]

6. His resident Dr. Feelgoods have enough drugs available to them

to keep a corpse walking. If that didn't work, the Disney Imagineers are improving their Audioanimatronics all the time.

He may have expired six months ago, for all we know. Hint: Watch for one of his arms to fall off or for him to start talking about braaaaains...

[Midnight Writer]

7. Because he has good genes. Just ask him.

His Father came to America without a cent in his pocket and made a real estate fortune so impressive even Woody Guthrie wrote a song celebrating it. (Actually, Fred Trump was born in NY and Guthrie's song was a screed against slumlords that called out Fred by name)

And his Uncle taught at MIT longer than anybody in history and is the guy who invented nuclear. (No, his Uncle did teach at MIT but not longer than anybody in history and he did not invent nuclear)

And his Sister was a Judge. (who resigned rather than face a scandal)

And for further proof, just look at his beautiful kids!

[COLGATE4]

47. Actually, it was Dumpy's grandfather who immigrated

from Bavaria. His father, Fred Trump made his fortune the old-fashioned way: cheating tenants and contractors.

[Midnight Writer]

49. I know, but does Trump? This bit about his Dad came from Trump's own fantasy.

[RANDYWILDMAN]

8. You can't get sick

if you have no soul

[Jamastiene]

9. I hate him.

I bet has had all the Big Macs he could possibly want for the past however long it has been (time is all running together now for me). All I can think about is a Hardee's chili dog and Big Macs. It's been years since I have been to McDonald's or Hardee's. Those were the first two things I started missing at the beginning of this thing. And they are all I keep thinking about while going hungry half the time since this thing started too. I'm rationing my food because most local grocery stores are out of so much. Food Lion's shelves were almost empty a month ago.

I hate Trump. Not only does he get pampered and protected, but he can do whatever the fuck he wants and gets away with it, even when it comes to health. I hate him even more now that I realize they haven't processed my order for my hamburger/hot dog chili that I use. This is at around 4 times as much cost wise, compared to what I usually pay. It was about $4 a can online, from a place recommended by the company that makes it. Usually, it is less than $1 a can. I could live off that stuff and be vegan. I planned to eat some of it each day with buns and ketchup only, and maybe mustard sometime too.....IF I can even find either hot dog or hamburger buns anywhere.

I hate Trump.

[True Blue American]

11. Hardee's has Chili Dogs?

I am sick of Skyline and Gold Star!

Wendy’s Hamburger and Frosty for me. My Son asked what I wanted to eat on Mother’s Day.

Don’t laugh now, with French Fries it was perfect!

[LeftInTX]

64. I like Frosties

They're a bargain.

[DeminPennswoods]

10. Access to The President (generic) is very closely controlled

Saw it reported that everyone who is supposed to meet with him is checked for covid19. He doesn't live a healthy lifestyle, but that will take a few more years to catch up with him. Trump's a germophobe, too.

[sprinkleeninow]

14. I like that--a Generic President. 👍 eom

[rpannier]

13. Evil provides some sort of protection

Maybe no self-respecting germ would be caught dead on him

[Kablooie]

15. God protects babies and fools

So hes protected twice.

[sop]

18. Who knows what's going on behind the curtain? It could take Trump hours to put himself back

together every day before appearing in public, and even then he seems pretty much out of it. The rest of his day is probably spent having his phony hair weave carefully arranged, slathering on the orange goop, shooting up whatever drugs are keeping him alive, and doing whatever else is required to make this old, fat, tired POS look human.

[lagomorph777]

44. I think he mainlines embalming fluid.

[VOX]

19. Microbes find him repulsive.

He’s too damn crazy and cruel to even host a virus.

[Silent3]

20. Some people (I'm looking at you, Bill Maher!) terribly overestimate...

...the strength of the relationship between diet and the immune system.

It's not that they're not somewhat related, but neither is it true that good diet and exercise turn your immune system into an invincible fortress, nor that bad diet and lack of exercise leave you vulnerable to every germ and virus that comes by.

It's partly genetic, partly environmental, and partly we don't know enough yet how the immune system works.

[cwydro]

21. Not a sniffle?

Have you heard the guy talk?

[Celerity]

22. Adderall wheeze

[eShirl]

23. "How can you kill that which has no life?"

-Southpark ("Make Love, Not Warcraft&quot

[obamanut2012]

24. You don't know that

You literally have zero way of knowing that.

[OnDoutside]

25. Not necessarily zero.

If he had it and was asymptomatic, he'd be crowing that it's no big deal. If he had it and was showing symptoms, he couldn't hide it.

[malaise]

26. BS

They had to rush him to the hospital and then there's that stubborn fact that he is mentally ill - seriously

[OnDoutside]

27. Proof if you needed it that there is no justice in this world.

[Harker]

28. Sick is his normal state.

Mentally and physically.

[MFM008]

29. Whats wrong with him

Physically is being as hidden as his taxes.
We can SEE he doesnt weigh 239 pounds.
We know he takes anti cholesterol meds.
There are issues there.

[Ilsa]

30. I wouldn't believe he never gets sick.

I suspect he is physically miserable most days. And we are seeing him less and less.

Don't forget, he had an emergency physical several months ago.

[Danmel]

31. I think he is the Anti-Christ

And I'm Jewish

[roamer65]

51. Nah, Satan won't send us something this incompetent.

Even Satan aims higher than this piece of shit.



I expect Satan to send someone who makes me pleased to have 666 imprinted on me.

[Danmel]

52. Well, 666 is Jared's building

The one lost a few billion on.

[roamer65]

53. Lol true.

[Maeve]

32. Only the good die young

And did you forget that late night hospital run? Or have you not heard him sniff his way thru a speech?

He believes only the weak and losers get sick so he hides any sign.

[sunonmars]

33. Sooner or later it will catch up with you when he least expects it and he'll just drop.

[Vinca]

34. He's probably getting preventive antibody infusions.

Even if he does get it, we'll never know because the loyal subjects will hide it unless he kicks off and has to be carted out of the White House in a giant body bag.

[scrabblequeen40]

35. Wrong: Recall secret trip to Walter Reed.

I will say this, they keep his illnesses under wraps. But yeah, he's definitely not well and probably going to die shortly.

[spanone]

36. He's the sickest man to ever occupy the White Housel

[Bucky]

37. From the virus's point of view, game recognizes game

Trump doesn't GET disease because Trump IS disease

[R B Garr]

38. Welcome to DU

[llmart]

39. What a ridiculous statement.

How do you know he's never sick? Not a sniffle??? WT?? Haven't you watched any of his sniffling performances? I know it's difficult to do, but have you even watched him on an clips? He's strung out on drugs and doped up most of the times he is on camera. He has to use a golf cart to go any more than 25 feet.

By the way, what happened to that Phase 2 of his so-called physical? The people that he hasn't fired are those that are sworn not to divulge the truth about him under threat of life most likely.

[LuckyCharms]

40. As Charles Manson once said in an interview:

"You can't kill me. I'm already dead".

[lpbk2713]

41. The orange makeup and the junk food are taking a toll on his liver and kidneys.

He may be already on dialysis for all we know.

[lagomorph777]

42. He's a vampire.

He lives on the blood of Mexican babies.

[lame54]

43. Trump died years ago...

It's actually Vincent D'Onofrio in a Trump suit

[GoCubsGo]

45. Not a sniffle??? Have you listened to this guy???

He's CONSTANTLY sniffling and sniffing. Any appearances of good health are just that...appearances. His handlers do a good job of covering up any illnesses he has, which I strongly suspect are many. But, even his make-up doesn't always cover up the red-face during bouts of elevated blood pressure. He's likely ill WAY more than he lets on.

[NNadir]

46. If there is a God, and she's really concerned about ethics, she will strike him for sure, terribly.

The question is, therefore, is there a moral God?

[sprinkleeninow]

54. God is not in this equation. schlumpy is writing his own ticket. eom

[NNadir]

55. I am, of course, not a theologian, and have no insight into the ultimate source of being...

...but were I deeply involved in the topic, I would not presume to speak where and how God is involved in anything.

[sprinkleeninow]

56. God is not the causation of the actions of this specimen of humanity.

Neither will He deliberately strike * just because of the pleas and petitions of some.

He may remove a hedge of protection around * [a phrase used by 'some traditions of the Christian faith'], him subsequently being at the mercy of the 'Devious One'.

[NNadir]

60. Again, I am deeply suspicious of anyone who wishes to speak for God.

I usually think that they are speaking for themselves, and clearly often they are.

It is rather curious to me, that someone can represent that being a single human being in a sea of billions of human beings, on a tiny planet, in a tiny solar system in vast galaxy which is one of only an unfathomable series of galaxies in an unfathomable set of galaxy clusters can claim to speak for the ultimate source of the universe, should such a source exist. It is even more curious that they assume anthropomorphic qualities to this source.

The early Christian theologian Tertullian reportedly said Credo quia absurdum, "I believe because its absurd."

If the attribution is correct, well, I'm not Tertullian.

It is absurd that a poorly educated fool with a low grade mind and a lack of morals sits in the White House. That this absurdity exists implies no other.

[sprinkleeninow]

61. "..should such a source exist..."

I do not have doubt.

I've seen too much and heard too much to discount that there is A Higher Power.

My Tradition of Faith sustains me especially now in this outrageous mess.

I keep myself from 'wishing' ill on *.

His fate does not belong in my speech.

Tertullian initially put forth some sound theology, but he went astray when he embraced Montanism eventually.

[kskiska]

48. Men his age are usually susceptible to things requiring surgery of some sort

like Rudy with his prostate cancer. Just a matter of time.

[roamer65]

50. He's mentally ill.

That more than makes up for it.

[ecstatic]

57. Cocaine and adderall. nt

[Luciferous]

58. He's a cockroach?

[totodeinhere]

59. Some people just don't get colds and the flu very often.

For instance, I can’t even remember the last time I had a cold or the flu.

[NameAlreadyTaken]

62. Golf is great exercise!

[Hekate]

63. Hm. The OP dropped his little observation and disappeared. nt

[DesertRat]

65. Yup, first post this year

[smirkymonkey]

66. I swear, he is the fucking Anti-Christ.

He is Satan incarnate. If someone shot him, he wouldn't die. He is pure evil and there is no getting rid of him until love takes over the earth.
