One day he's not going to wake up.
I can totally see JD trying to Weekend-at-Bernie's Trump
It's basically what Project 2025 has been doing this whole time
He looked truly terrible a few weeks ago. He seems to be recovering. How are the worst people so long lasting?
Money. Access to extremely advanced and intimate healthcare at a moment's notice.
These contribute for sure. But I honestly think that narcissistic people that are wealthy enough just don't have the level of stress throughout life that a normal person does.
Dude acts like a child looking for gratification from mommy and gets it from the "media" that asks him questions.
Less stress throughout an entire lifetime. It makes up for being an overweight old man that would have died decades ago if he ever had to worry about paying rent or had back pain from manual labor.
Money also doesn't help if you surround your self with idiots, look at how Steve Jobs went even after stealing a liver from someone after having wrecked his by rejecting treatment for his curable cancer.
Someone said that he's on a 28 day cycle. Apparently there's a Alzheimer's shot that's a every 4 weeks shot.
So he'll be good for 10-18 days and then start sundowning till they hit him with the next bump.
But then again who knows it's the internet after all.
There was a thread I saw not too long ago where someone brought up a little conspiracy theory I think I may subscribe to
There's a new Alzheimer's treatment, Lecanemab/Leqembi, that was given accelerated approval in the US by the FDA this year in January, so just as trump took office.
It's given by IV every 4 weeks. Trump has been seen with what looks like makeup thats covering up bruising from an IV
It also seems like he has highs and lows where he declines for a couple weeks then perks back up a bit before declining again, and you can maybe kind of match those up to a similar 4-ish week cycle.
And it also calls for regular cognitive tests and MRIs to monitor if it's effective, and, well, trump has been doing that.
I just thought with tarriff.boycotts, he had run out of his "European Sudafed"
The worst people seem fuelled by hate alone and survive longer than they have any right to. See: Dick Cheney.
Can someone learn this power?
Not from a Jedi
Easy. Look around at random strangers. Pick out some characteristic. Anything at all that you can reason makes you better than them (the more illogical the better). Now just hate them for it. Even better if it's something they have no control over.
Some song once told me only the good die young. So he's here for awhile.
You misunderstood, the song was telling you that your tie is too wide
I'm pretty tall but that went right over me.
Wrong song.
Oh! You mean they'll tell you you can't sleep with somebody else
but either way, it's okay, you wake up with yourself
??
Somebody just sing it already
Only the Good Die Young and It's Still Rock and Roll to Me.
We're all better off with me not singing.
I hope it’s tomorrow.
I hope he has a stroke while he's rage Tweeting on the toilet and goes full on Hector Salamanca: knowing everything that's happening but trapped in a (more) useless, vegetating body.
Hope I have that day off from work 🍾
Torn. I want this, but I also want him to live long enough to fail. Badly. To face some justice for all the evil.
Justice was taken out back and put down a long time ago
Yes let's just hope one of us will still be around to appreciate it.
He did say he’s anti-woke
Gotta respect him for practicing what he preaches. Lol
Tell me when he doesn't jolt awake. Anything less is a tease.
Would be nice if he slumps over on live tv and stays that way forever
Honestly it'd be funny if that happened and they didn't realize he was dead for like 10 minutes. Mind you they probably have him hooked up to a heart rate monitor.
ASAP, please!
Droopy Don
Fuck dude, will you just drop dead already.
And just like the white, privileged, arrogant man that he... falls asleep, only to jolt awake and instantly tries to (wrongly) correct the woman speaking.
Merica'!
They fitted him with a insulin pump full of Ritalin didn't they? "Shit, he's falling asleep again. Give him a bump!"
His heart probably can't handle stimulants anymore. He's switched to benzos to get his high now.
Bummer that he woke up.
Dozey Donald seems to fall asleep more frequently than Sleepy Joe ever did.
text Potus to send a jolt of electricity keep him awake, i would pay for that
Sleep deprivation has been linked to certain death.
Sleepy Donny
Dozing don.

I really fucking wish news orgs would stop fucking with the wording of articles like this.
Don't get my hopes up.
On the one hand, he is a very old man.
But on the other hand, this shit is incredibly boring.
I'm genuinely aghast when I see these long-table high profile Trump photo-op board meetings. Like, I would fucking hate to be at that table, if for no other reason than waiting in a long line to kiss the President's ass when you're worth multiple billions of dollars would feel so humiliating.
But I guess that's the real path to power. All that "hustle and grind" is just getting up at 4am in the morning to whisper "Yes" into the ear of the guy higher than you on the totem pole.
I'm impressed he was anywhere on point with the actual conversation.
His eyes were open seconds earlier.
Surely we don't need to make up embarrassing moments when there are so many other factually accurate ones to choose from.
Fake News! He's the most high energy dictator ever! Health like no one has ever seen! His MRI was the most bigly, perfect MRI! In fact, many men, many big tough men, SWAT cops and truckers, say to him, they say while literally crying, "Sir, Sir! Please Sir, fall asleep in Cabinet meetings again, to show your manly, macho health!"
He taught Pete Hegseth how to do a pull-up.
