Or drop dead anywhere, any time. He's got to have some lethal hair-trigger condition lurking in his cholesterol-choked arteries just waiting for the chance to take him out.

Clock's ticking!

who work for a living die because they can't afford basic health care, but taxpayers are forced to give pieces of shit like Cheney & tRump the best care in the world.

One of the ways that covid kills is by causing the immune system to go into overdrive, in essence causing the immune system to attack healthy organs indiscriminately. If he is getting platelet infusions, his chance of getting hit with a cytokine storm goes way up.

However, the White House put out a statement on August 2, via reporter Brian J. Karem that claimed those rumors were false. Karem tweeted, “According to the White House Trump did NOT visit Walter Reed Hospital Saturday. According to Pool reports, he is back golfing In VA again today.

So, we can be almost assured that the a-hole went.

No evidence he went. He golfed.

He’s had a bandage there on his hand before (once said got it playing with Barron - ha! As if).

Smart money says blood thinners, and here’s why that might be the case (watch the super slurry video).

One of the benefits of making videos that garner 5 million+ views is that you hear from a lot of people, including whistleblowers inside Trump administration.

I've received three communications saying that during his term Trump has suffered a "series" of "mini-strokes."

WATCH.

The only way we'll know for sure is if he strokes out at a rally or in front of a camera somewhere.

Do I think there's something wrong with him? Yes, but I'm not qualified to make a diagnosis.

Like me wishing that he'd fall 40 stories down an elevator shaft in a building that he owns and for which he paid many bribes to circumvent safety regulations.

But much of it is based on not-too-far-fetched inference based on observation of his behavior and physicality, especially for those of us who've known actual human beings to have suffered similar health effects.

Or maybe an air handling unit will drop on him through the ceiling of his code-violating, tax-payer funded golf resort.
