So what thread do we use for noticing that the President is very clearly suffering from heart issues? Bruising on his hands and near his mouth, obviously swollen ankles, easily visible Frank's sign...

I have been wondering about that, especially the bruising on the hands and trunk-like ankles. Haven’t noticed anything with the ear lobes though.
 
I like Gutfeld, so what. You don't see the humor in his comments because you don't acknowledge that the left constantly refers to conservatives as Nazis or Hitler? It's the new racism. Ya'll have so watered down those terms to where it's now a bit of a joke.

No, that's the goal of the right. They want to blame everything on the left, instead of accepting responsibility for who they are and the choices they make.

This has nothing to do with the left. This simply shows what an idiot he is. He knows the meaning of the word and why he shouldn't use it. He also knows that's a stupid comparison to the N word. But he also knows that the right is so brainwashed that they will accept it. Same reason Trump should have just released the Epstein files, his cult would be fine with him being in the list. They have already proven that, based on what they have already accepted from him. We all know he's a sexual predator that believes money buys him the right to treat women as toys. His history proves it. Just look at how he reacted to the reporter the other day, he was basically drooling.

And the family values, Christian party still voted for this perverted felon. So we know they would have accepted him being on the Epstein list as well as they accept the label of Nazi.

I get the jokes involving tees that say "i'm a deplorable". But contrast a minority population twisting a slur vs a majority population twisting or "adopting" the word nazi... and then I see his take as desperate for the attention from people who are desperate.

That picture of his hand from the press scrum yesterday was ugggly.

IMO, It’s more likely than not he has moderate heart failure. The chronic hand bruising, swelling, and crepe paper skin, cankles (looks to have on compression socks), and fluctuating mental clarity are consistent with cardiac issues. I chalk up his late 2024 weight loss to an “oh shit, we have to get serious about this” medical realization - or, maybe it was just a campaign component.

Other possibilities include, but do not exclude, a chronic cancer like a slow rolling lymphoma, multiple myeloma, or prostate; long covid; and kidney disease. I also would wager he’s on pain killers, because only providence (which I think is magic) would prevent him from a screaming low back and possibly sciatica, given how long he’s worn lifts and stood like the leaning tower of Pisa.

I have to give Trump credit for this -- the man always seems to be doing something. He's traveling, he's doing press conferences in the Oval Office, he's composing long, inscrutable Truths about Epstein. I got the sense Trump 1.0 worked about three hours per day. This version of Trump is FAR more active, and he has been since the middle of 2023. I suspect what we're seeing from him healthwise is the inevitable impact of a stressful schedule on a human body that's nearing 80 years old and has been at least somewhat overweight for 25+ years now.

I hate the man with a burning passion, but I'm genuinely impressed at how a fat, ugly, extraordinarily unlikeable 79-year-old man has been able to command the attention of the world on a daily basis for more than two years now. It HAS to be taking a toll on him, but I'm done questioning his work ethic.

Hard to argue with this. Trump may need to slow down a bit and pace himself.
 
I wouldn't be heartbroken if something happened that, you know, made him unable to be President. He is pretty old and pretty fat. Sometimes things happen.

I think it would go a long way toward bringing sanity back to the country if he was not among the living... just saying.

I'm not hoping for it, and I would never wish it on him, but it wouldn't be the worst thing to happen.... once the tidal wave of conspiracy theories died down, of course.

This statement reveals much more about you than you seem to realize.
 

“…Mike Huckabee, the U.S. ambassador to Israel, made a highly unusual appearance at the corruption trial of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday, the latest sign of the Trump administration’s public support for Mr. Netanyahu in a long-running case.

Israeli prosecutors have indicted Mr. Netanyahu for bribery, fraud and breach of trust. He has dealt with the legal challenge as Israel has waged wars in Gaza, Lebanon and Iran since the Hamas-led attack on the country on Oct. 7, 2023.

… Of the Israeli case, Mr. Huckabee said, “It’s an unprecedented thing that in the midst of holding office, during an incredibly tense time, that you would spend a lot of your time — as our president had to do — sitting in a courtroom, often before judges who are totally unfair.”

… Mr. Trump’s call for the trial to end was also rare: a direct intervention by an American president in judicial proceedings against an allied leader. He labeled the trial a “Witch Hunt against their Great War Time Prime Minister” last month on social media.

“Bibi Netanyahu’s trial should be CANCELLED, IMMEDIATELY, or a Pardon given to a Great Hero, who has done so much for the State,” Mr. Trump wrote….

He [Huckabee] has also disputed that the president was directly intervening in the trial, contending that Mr. Trump was not “trying to pick a side.”…”




 

Trump Has Drafted Letter to Fire Fed Chair and Asked Republicans if He Should​

The president waved a copy of a draft letter firing Jerome H. Powell at a meeting in the Oval Office with House Republicans. It remains to be seen whether he follows through with his threat.


“… The meeting in the Oval Office was on an unrelated topic — the House members’ apprehensions about a crypto-related piece of potential legislation. But Mr. Trump used the meeting to discuss what has become one of his favorite topics: his hatred of Mr. Powell, whom he elevated to chair in 2017, during his first presidency.

… Representative Anna Paulina Luna, Republican of Florida, posted on the social media website X while the meeting was going on that, “Jerome Powell is going to be fired. Firing is imminent.”…”
