    Literally every 79 year old has already had a small stroke of some kind. TIA they are called. He’s on soooo many meds. Shits his pants daily.

    Man, it’s annoying seeing a headline starting with “Trump, 79” that doesn’t end with “dead”.

      That headline will end with the 79.

      It will be something like “Trump, Self Made Billionaire Who Led America Through Turbulent Times Dead at 79.”

      That’s my prediction, anyway.

    That’s not so much a “call out” as a “hey, I think the president just had a stroke.”

    I thought that video they put out with him speaking about Kirk was so weird and somehow wrong. Like AI or edited footage. I assumed it was because the man can’t string together coherent sentences but now I wonder if it could have been health related.

      Remember how they just kept using the emperors face in the equilibrium movie after his death? That’s what’s going on here.

    I read the headline earlier, with no picture, and thought yeah he always looks like a bloated orange monster that tracks.

    Actually seeing the pictures all I can think of is the training I did on FAST, literally the F is for face drooping, that old mother fucker is having a god damned stroke…

      The acronym FAST is good to know:
      From https://www.mass.gov/info-details/stroke-signs-and-symptoms-act-fast

      Face
      Arms
      Speech
      Time

      One last thing. It’s ted-ed but here’s a brain researcher who experienced and analyzed a stroke as one happened:
      https://youtu.be/mYD7Y9CXeUw

      Cw if you need: she displays and handles a real human brain and spinal cord

      It is even clearer in the video footage. A single picture could just be him grimacing in a single frame, but the video makes it clear that the droopy face is his actual resting face, which it wasn’t before.

      The hamberders are finally catching up to him.
