Relax, it’s just a stroke, guy
Just havin' a lil stroke calm down
relax guys!
A little stroke, as a treat.
"Doc says I can rub one out whenever I want!"
"No, Donald, he said you could have a stroke at any time"
Just another Thursday Stroke, don't mind him! 👍
"Just a series of mini-strokes"
It won't negatively affect his cognitive functions. Those are long gone.
Strokes took out both my parents. Come on stroke, you owe me. I'll undoubtedly go out the same way.
How did you manage hilarious and alarming in the same post lmao
High volume activity and movement after a stroke pretty much guarantees a secondary event. Just saying.
"Pictures of Trump renew questions about Biden's health"
Biden could post a video getting his own mail from the end of a reasonable driveway as a display of superior health at this point. L
If you're going to get 3 billion people's hopes up, you better be fucking right
Don't tease me.
It's ok he had it a few weeks ago
What does this mean? You should be sedentary after a stroke?
he should be or the chance of a second stroke is much higher.
Well, no matter which side wins it’s sure to be entertaining
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...
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.
TIA in progress.
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:

Cw if you need: she displays and handles a real human brain and spinal cord
Thank you for sharing that TED-ED talk, it was very impactful and insightful
Maybe Kirk was one of his horcruxes

We can call him Droopy Donny now right?
Always could
Imagine if he died before Biden
Hey! .... maybe the stroke might just mellow him out and he might not act so strange or say such terrible things
Evidence shows brain damage tends to make people even LESS empathetic and thus MORE fascist.

For real? Because that didn't happen to my wife.
It is fairly common for certain types of head trauma to be followed up with personality changes depending on the severity and type of brain injury, usually frontal lobe damage. A lot of people become more paranoid and angry, which often leads to their political views leaning to the far right.
Here’s an article on the subject. https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rstb.2020.0137
I had a traumatic head injury that required brain surgery as a child and it’s never lead to any of those kinds of symptoms, but it wasn’t anything involving the frontal lobe.
Thanks, that's informative. Fortunately her frontal lobe was unaffected.
The brain is a wild place, but generally it's true.

Google is that way -->
Since when is it my job to prove your claims?
Since when is it my job to type words into a search bar for you?
This isn't a formal debate or a peer reviewed journal article. I'm under no onus to cite anything other than my own knowledge.
As rare as that possibility might be, that'd be really cool to see/hear!
Man, it's annoying seeing a headline starting with "Trump, 79" that doesn't end with "dead".
I really hope i never have to read a headline that says "Trump, 80..."
Doubt he lives to the midterms.
That's not so much a "call out" as a "hey, I think the president just had a stroke."
C'mon man, just lay down and go off into that great night. You'll be at peace
Well, if there is an afterlife, and any belief systems about it are true, he'll be burning eternally and providing an eternal source of entertainment for devils, or getting reincarnated thousands of times as a cockroach that gets stomped on every time.
I think justice would be for him to develop locked-in syndrome and live another decade.
I hope he sees all these types of posts where people are actively HOPING he had a stroke.
😊
We always have a bottle of Pinot Grigio sitting around so we can spontaneously celebrate.
If this mf dies, we need more wine.
I got a bottle of Jack's Offs
Danial'sfrom the 80s set aside and a planned party to drink it at.Edit: Made spelling more wrong
*Denials
Not even a joke: I know someone with a wine cellar and he has bottles set aside for certain people's death and there's a bottle for Trump in there.
This is not an actual stroke right?
He had an Adderall stuck in his tooth.
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.
He's been shitting his pants for decades tho
Botulinum Toxin overdose.
Yeah, maybe he accidentally kissed Melania
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.
Time to go to a locked facility grandpa
Face.dropping like a plane hit it.
When is that orange mask NOT droopy???
It has not been like that before. If you watch the video footage you can clearly see his resting face being completely different to what it used to be.
Bell's palsy. I am fairly certain it is not a stroke. Sorry to disappoint.
The diagnostic difference between Bell's palsy and facial paralysis due to stroke is that Bell's palsy gets better in a few weeks. The only way to know it's not caused by a stroke is when it goes away, or if scans and other diagnostic techniques to detect a stroke show that none has occurred (in which case it's more likely but not certain).
So where do you get your fair certainty from?
University of his Ass
My alma mater!
Can't really tell without an exam but bi-lateral arm movements seem even and regular. Speech does not seem to be affected. His doctors haven't strapped him to a bed to prevent a fall from right leg weakness. All the signs point to just facial nerve involvement and not CNS. Still could be a stroke, but from looking in from the outside, I don't think so.
Seeing reports now that he has since made appearances with no drooping and was able to speak coherently (at least his version of it) at length. Does this help the diagnosis?
I had Bell's palsy for about 6 weeks back in 2008. Literally put a line down the middle of the face, and one side has full movement, and the other does not. Just the fact that Droopy Don can blink indicates he does not have Bell's palsy. I had to use tape to keep my eye shut.
Not to mention all the other facial movements he has on his entire face.
There are a shit-ton of diseases that can make your face droop. I don't know why everyone always goes to stroke.
