Another photo shows the ongoing medical issue with Trump's hand






No idea if this is some sort of medical cream or just make-up. There's obviously some discoloration or scarring underneath the splotch.

The makeup on the hand is just him covering it up, and its a bad match. I use my GFs concealer if they look really bad.

Anyway, next thing you know, the guy turned into a fly. Or maybe it was a spider he turned into. Or maybe it wa.... yeah. That's what it was, a mummy.

My mother was just a few years older than drump is now and was back and forth between a nursing home and ER where they would put her on liquids or an infusion of some sort.

Could be a chemo infusion, or antibiotics or he could be on dialysis from kidney disease.

I just pray that Joe Biden can hold a straight face when he visits Drump 'lying in state'.
