I have a theory which is mine, belongs to me,

And is mine too....and it has nothing to do with dinosaurs.

My theory is that Trump is the one who is sick. Given the Rovian predilection for projection, this is almost by definition the explanation for the "Hillary is sick" meme.

My professional diagnosis is the Trump has Helookslikeshititis. He's puffy and has lost a few steps in his energetic delivery. He might be having minor strokes, Lou Gehrig's Disease, or amyloidosis. In fact you can open up an internal medicine text and point to any pathological entity and possess as much expertise as Trump and his minions have.

Not in the way that candidates look from being tired and eating bad food. I actually think he looks like he is depressed.

thinking that for a few weeks. His disorganized ramblings make no sense. Which I think is the real reason for the teletrumpter. I am thinking his orange tone is to cover up his very pale skin.

Is 2 or 3 rallies he has cancelled this week?

The anal fissures are CLEARLY enlarged beyond ANYTHING that can be called normal, and the cranio-rectal inversion is indisputably massive. The caudate nuclei are perhaps abscessed beyond recovery in this case. In fact, the entire dorsal striati have deteriorated almost totally. I think he will have to go through the rest of his life with this condition; I don't think there has ever been a case like this one, and I can safely opine that it is untreatable with any known medical approach.

My theory is that Donald Trump is very dumb at one end, much, much dumber in the middle, and then dumb again at the other end.

It's clearly yours. As for him...he's disillusioned. It's not as much fun as he thought it would be. It's WORK and people think it's about them and not him, and it's supposed to be about him, dammit.

That's my theory, which is mine.

That is why he thinks Hillary, who sleeps normally, has a chronic problem that makes her sleep too much.

PoliticusUSA said Trump could be sick, but they think it's probably drama and an unstable personality.

Dr. Former KGB Establishment GOP Breibart gave him the choice between the thorazine shuffle or the polonium flu shot. He obviously went with the chemical lobotomy... He had so much less to lose on that.

Mix that with the red face - I swear the guy is either nervous on the big stage or he is fighting high blood pressure. I'm sure if he was checked for circulation/heart issues, the results would be extremely positive.
