Trump Looks FRAIL, Declining Health Becomes SERIOUS Concern - Pod Save America



May 19, 2026 Pod Save America
Trump's DOJ launches a $1.7 billion fund to make payments to his allies, as Democrats revive the debate about whether to make Trump's declining fitness—even his increasingly discolored hands—a campaign issue. Jon, Lovett, and Tommy weigh the pros and cons and react the rest of the news, including Trump taking revenge on Bill Cassidy and Thomas Massie, his new plotting against Cuba and Greenland, and the latest on negotiations with Iran.

Also, anyone profiting off his grifting wants him to stick around.

Is how much the burial and parade will cost us. And if he is banned from Arlington.
There will be a 6 week “Laying in State” until the smell is too much.
J6ers will not Leave his side until the MAGAt s devour every crumb.
After that he will continue to be front and center when they put his golden statue in the vacant coffin after consumption, solid gold coffin, from our Ft. Knox Stash.
Fox will carry the obscene shit show on for a year.
The fun part will be watching his Liquor Cabinet, and billionaires getting to the head of the line to consume their share the feast. The soul is spoken for. Satan will be there to collect it.
Sorry MAGA, you can not have it.
All this after 10 year, minimum, prison term.
What a world wide party it will be. And Jr, will forever be called Donald J Trump Jr, and broke and in daddy’s former cell.
A man can dream. Hope and Faith is a powerful drug. Works well for religion.
