Okay, I'm going to say it....I've noticed the FACT that La Tortuga's lips are a grayish mauve?

[The_REAL_Ecumenist]

That B*tch has SERIOUS heart disease & I should know because my maternal line, INCLUDING my mom has a STRONG history of congestive heart failure & trust you me, that's what's going on. I'd bet ANYONE a fat burger that he's wearing foundation, AKA Dermablend to cover up the a mottled cutaneous appearance because there's ABSOLUTELY no way his complexion is that perfect, NOT with those ectropic eyes and blue lips. I nursed my mom through her journey to the Other World & I'm Caramel brown, as was mama & though others wouldn't necessarily see the issues with her coloring, most of the family could.

TRUST ME, that hand looks like one that has been used for IV drip, a SERIOUS one. Last summer, I was lucky enough to be the winner of a HORRIFIC CASE of intestinal Vibriosis. Chile, I've had a perforated duodenal ulcer that literally killed me, (bled out & was clinically dead for 45 minutes), stage 4B metastatic cervical cancer, visceral gangrene, SEVERE endometriosis & I can truly say that I have never been as sick as when I had that. I lost the ability to see color, other than black, white & infinite shades of gray, hallucinations out the wazoo but the dehydration was on a level that I never, in my worst nightmares, imagined. All my veins collapsed but it didn't prevent them from trying. My hands looked EXACTLY like"A Teknős", (Magyarul meaning "the turtle&quot , complete with the bandages, butterfly & frank stitches.

Bruh is lying about the state of his health & it wouldn't surprise me that he's spending alot of the day AND night hooked up to a drip(s) for what is, honestly, a clear case of heart disease and more than a likely case of Cov19. This WILL NOT END WELL cuz been there, seen that.

1. I mentioned in another thread that his face looks like Mitch McConnell's Hand

I noticed it before the first debate. Maybe it happened when he got covid.

But he still puts on the orange makeup but you can see the dark and grayishness compared to before.

[Redleg]

3. Trump did not look well

Of course, when has he ever looked normal? I could see the thinly disguised rage on his face as Biden made his points. Trump has got to be headed toward a major coronary event.

[The_REAL_Ecumenist]

6. Yep, the Apricot Asshole does lay it on heavy & thick but I was actually referring to Ms @$$hole of

The Year, McConnell, I've had enough medical issues to last me 90 lifetimes & I try NOT to look at dumpz mug, which causes more retinal damage than staring into the sun in summer through a Fresnel Lens. Frankly, I'm starting a pool to see which one of us here in NorCal is correct about how much time McConnell AND Trump have left before they faceplant PERMANENTLY for that final dirt map. McCon uses at least 3 oz of peachy mango spackle everyday... He's laying it on even heavier lately.

[rwsanders]

10. Oh, nice reference to a fresnel lens, not something you see everyday.

[The_REAL_Ecumenist]

20. I live in NorCal & spend ALOT of time in Coastal Humboldt & Del Norte. There are

A couple of lighthouses there that have Fresnel lens. I'm not sure that they still are active, as I've not enough time there during all seasons, (we celebrate our Anniversary in late spring) but I've always loved them. Planning to move there within the next couple of years. We're looking for a large property in the King Range OR off of Hwy 36 as I married a REAL cowboy, (grew up on a working cattle ranch in Central Tx)& he wants to get back into ranching & crops BUT this time, he wants to do everything organically.

PS: Right glad tameetcha, RWSanders!

[rwsanders]

25. I miss the area, I did 4 years of my active duty USCG time there. I did some work in Humboldt Bay.

My wife's grandfather was USCG and did a stint as a lighthouse keeper on the Delaware River.

I just learned recently that whale watching from shore is worthwhile as the gray mothers and calves come within 100m of shore on their northward migration.
When I was out there, I though "from shore? I'll only see a spout" stupid me.

I have family in Bend, OR. I hear its amazing.

Good to meet you.

16. I was wondering if he was getting Immunoglubulin transfusions ....

I believe they use big needles for Ig (Immunoglobulin) transfusions, which are more likely to cause bruising.

Or maybe....

[Ms. Toad]

2. Are you referring to McConnell or Trump? n/t

[NBachers]

4. Tortuga is turtle, so I'm assuming it's McConnell.

[Ms. Toad]

5. My assumption as well (for the same reason), but the first response seemed to assume it was Trump.

[Blue Owl]

7. The Reaper is waiting, Mitch

Meanwhile I am sorry you had to endure that, The_REAL_Ecumenist... sounds terrifying...

[Ms. Toad]

8. Assuming you are talking about McConnell -

COVID + post-polio syndrome might be particularly deadly, especially if the lungs were initially involved.

9. Saw the pic of the hand

And knew it was serious. How in Dog’s name do these 2 people (trump and McConnell) go about their business when they are obviously very ill?

You have been through some medical horrors. I appreciate your insights and I am sorry you had to go through all that.

[KentuckyWoman]

14. A lot of people work through serious illness.

You'd be surprised at how many people are working full time and fighting cancer or living with MS or heart failure ... the big stuff. Most people are pretty eager to keep as close to normalcy as they can when life hits the fan. Plus, for most of us, can't afford to be sick. Need the paycheck.

[NJCher]

24. I'm sure that's true

and quite likely, I would do that, too.

It also aids denial.

[LowerManhattanite]

11. I'm guessing he quietly had COVID...

...and what we’re seeing is the post-disease residual affects to his circulatory system—a KNOWN symptom of COVID sufferers.

[BainsBane]

12. This picture illustrates your point well

Even though it doesn't show his hand.

[electric_blue68]

13. So sorry to hear about such medical difficulties ...

My mom went through a lot from mid-late 30s onward.

I'd imagine at his age his skin couldn't look that good.

For fortunately only a relatively short period of time I had blood thinners, and a bunch of needles sometimes on hand veins but woah my hands never looked look like 😮 that ! Thank goodness!

[CincyDem]

17. And KY has a Dem governor. Just a little icing on the cake. n/t.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

18. Yep, he can appoint a replacement for McTurtle!

[Wanderlust988]

19. And he's a new governor and will probably have another 7 years in office

due to his popularity.

[mercuryblues]

21. I read right up to the 2nd word

[jmowreader]

22. Okay, I've seen the picture...

Every politician, whether man or woman, wears makeup every day. They’re on camera frequently and cosmetics are a necessary thing.

I wonder why they don’t do anything to his lips? You’re looking at three packs a day for twenty years lips. He’s from Kentucky and they do love their cigarettes there, but McConnell has an extreme case of smoker’s lips.

[Wawannabe]

23. ...

IHDY?
