and I have commented on it numerous times. It is hardly an image of strength with Trump sitting, hunched over in the Oval Office with people standing around him.

I am around the same age and I have congestive heart failure. The symptoms are recognizable to me. Meanwhile, the visuals are not reassuring. Of course, FDR was sitting most of the time, but he looked and sounded vibrant and energetic, at least until the final weeks of his life.

"New theory explains why trump doesn't stand anymore." Theory? I don't think it is a theory; anyone paying attention knows what is going on.
