(38,464 posts)I'm probably alone in that opinion.
And Trump looks goofy in anything - so it doesn't matter where he wears his tie.

Oh and General? Pack your service rev-l-er just in case.

(1,097 posts)Of course, with the company he's with they'd not notice anything unrelated to "tax cuts" unless DJ just dropped to the floor.
BTW, what's with the "blue" tie (Dems color). Shouldn't he have on a red tie?

(12,711 posts)I would vote for encephalopathy (ammonia on the brain) caused by a fatty liver. I know someone with encephalopathy and his behavior is so strange, lies and a sort of senility. But tRumps eyes look clear.
Siwsan
(27,830 posts)She noticed the very slight downturn on one side of her mouth. It was so subtle, that I didn't even notice it.
ProudLib72
(17,984 posts)Your Prisondent tRump doll says one of three sentences when you pull his tie:
"No, no collusion, not a puppet"
"Fake news, fake CNN, fake fake"
"Feed me, mommy, feed me Big Macs!"

(13,445 posts)I'm pretending to be hating myself for being such a bitch, but the orange anus seems to be hanging kinda slack in that picture. He's missing his usual pucker.
It'd be a real pisser if he was a vegetable and didn't realize it when he finally gets perp walked.

Yeah I do.
He knows the end is near.
Never thought he would get caught.

Now he is under a lot stress.
Think of his blood pressure.

(19,459 posts)Anyone can look bad via judicious selection; a common enough occurrence in blog-style news reporting. Two examples that come to mind are Palin and the Bundy crowd.

(15,436 posts)the picture, by the way, is not from today -- it was used to illustrate an article on The Hill 6 days ago, and yesterday McTurtle was reported to be home in Kentucky.

(141,926 posts)I can't compare because I avoid looking at him and pics of him.
dawnie51
(959 posts)There will be no doctors let within 1000 yards of him, and even if they were, they would be of the ilk that would not tell the truth. The citizens of this country will never know what has been diagnosed, what will be diagnosed, etc. Dump would have to drop over on live TV and even then, we would be lied to.

(24,969 posts)McConnell just farted and it's the first time Trump got a whiff of a turtle-fart. In the picture, he's holding his breath.
See the guy behind McConnell? He passed out just after the picture was taken. The douchebag on the left is telling Trump, "That wasn't me you know."

Damn, I'm sorry. I just let my inner-teenager out. He's been sent to his room.

(10,348 posts)Old drunks are bad for this, IMHO, for similar reasons that Donnie would be: They don't want to be told to change! Or that they can't have what they impulsively want, whether it's vodka or 3000 calorie snacks, that trigger the smaller TIA's.
Given the stress on his liver, he may also be flirting with pancreatitis.
erpowers
(9,441 posts)He often looks sick. I would not be surprised if there was a situation similar to Ronald Reagan where after Trump leaves office there is an announce that he has been diagnosed with some type of illness.
Mopar151
(10,348 posts)So he's often on the wrong side of his blood sugar. His weight and physique say that he's at least pre-diabetic. And he sulks. When you occasionally feel like hammered shit for random reasons, and you ain't quite right anyway, A TIA might have to be pretty major to get thru the underlying nasty.

(30,613 posts)Definitely something is off. I wish him great suffering, but I don't want him to die before he and Pence are impeached, and Ryan and McConnell go to jail.
