mental defect is his only defense.

as the walls close in, i predict that the family is suddenly going to become concerned about dear poppy's obviously failing brain.
he will finally be hustled off to walter reed for the full exam that he should have had before the primaries, instead of trying to paper it over w dr hippiestein.

images from the mri will be all over the front pages. we will be regaled w stories of how someone w so little grey matter shouldnt be able to feed themselves, but damn, how well he hid it, how well he coped, how well he carried on being himself.

any bets?

1. I imagine him being trundled out of the WH bungee-corded to a hand truck,

all trussed up in a loose white jacket with leather straps, and wearing a goalie's mask.
