Jesus...his orbital edema is out of control.

During his atrocious behavior at NATO, I couldn’t help but notice the severity of his edema, particularly in the suborbital region. It has increased dramatically.

My guess is that it’s a combination of heart/kidney failure coupled with his high salt diet. My father, who possessed this disease entity exhibited this symptom towards the “end”. Keep an eye on this aspect of his obvious physical deterioration. It is very telling. The WH is gonna say it’s from his sleeplessness. If they in fact do, then by definition it is not.

We are watching carefully.

But it’s always funny to me that people feel the need to point out that Vance is No. 1 in the line of succession. Like who doesn’t know that at this point, especially on a forum full of people who are into politics.

Personally I don’t really care that JD would be next man up solely for the fact that watching these filthy MAGAts grieve for Dear Leader would be utterly priceless and life affirming.

He appears to be somewhat less nuts and doesn't have the blind support of the MAGAt base.

The medical term for saggy skin about the eyes?

Edema would indicate swelling

Hard to tell without a photo, I reckon

At the NATO summit. His eyes are almost swollen shut. That's more than bags under the eyes and baggy skin. That's excessive fluid retention. My uncle showed that before he died. He was on dialysis because he lost both his kidneys.

But he died of sudden cardiac arrest. His heart gave out in the end. I suspect that's what pedo Trump will end up dying from.

Fluid buildup in the abdomen needs to be regularly drained. Paracentesis.
This leads to the swelling in the ankles.

The cause is often liver or kidneys failing. Cirrhosis, cancer.

Is he doesn’t drink.

Beyond that he is a living example of the seven deadly sins.

… basically trying to showcase his giant arse (extra-large jumbo Depends with a MAJOR load on), and I was shocked at how edematous his entire head looked. His face wasn’t just fat—it was shiny, the skin was stretched so tight… Gutted I can’t find the pic now to illustrate.

Surely, this means his kidneys are failing in a big way—which will also exacerbate his cardiac issues. If I was into all the damned betting apps out there these days, it would make for an exciting contest to see which kills him first.

Got the whisky ready for the celebration!

I would not be at all surprised if they made the plane a mite hyperbaric so he doesn’t swell or develop a clot which he could throw.
