Lmao, did he admit to it on his bullshit social platform? (I refuse to visit to go see)

You can hear it on mic at 0:34, and trump immediately ends the press conference and has reporters cleared out.

No idea who the woman in the green is, but she seems to not be as used to the smell as everyone else in this administration

It's Kathryn Burgum, wife of Interior Secretary (and former North Dakota governor) Doug Burgum.

Being from North Dakota, you'd think she'd be used to the smell of manure.

24

Manure & a rotting corpse are two different smells though.

12

livestock manure is mostly grass and thus extremely fibrous and pretty inoffensive. Trump's diet meanwhile seems to actually be mcdonald's food, and is thus optimized to produce the most horrifying results possible.

It's the United States of America, not America.

America is the joint continents.

That may be confusing to US citizens, because their president is incontinent.

Beyond just Trump, being an elected official should have a strictly enforced retirement age. I'm saying no one over 65.

Eh, the age limit should be the same as the general age of pension, and it should only apply for being able to be voted in.

This means that if you get voted in at 65, than you are able to serve that term, but nothing longer.

And what of appointed officials, like Supreme Court justices?

I just had a look at the equivalent of the US suppreme court here, "Högsta förvaltningsdomstolen", and the officers of the court serve until retirement.

Seems resonable to me.

It is the same here. But they often decide to "retire" at death, i.e., lifelong tenure.

Yeah, forced retirement at the national retirement age?

Oh my bad, I misread earlier. Yeah, it should be forced, but here it is not.

1

I think SC justices should have terms. Make em long terms if you'd like but still limits. And again, no one over 65.

2

Weak. I'm calling for Logan's Run numbers. Everyone over 30 get out of office.

Or 21, if you liked the book better.

65 is too old. 55 is ok. 60 is acceptable but pushing it, and only if the job they are affected for lasts 4ish years

And I'm in the above age brackets, btw.
Most people in my age range have no fucking idea how to run a washing machine, so they deffo shouldn't be allowed to run governments or councils etc etc.
Age these old bastards out so they go and fuck up their garden rather than fucking up the whole world.

It's not just the decrepit mind, but the decrepit values. They don't care about the long run. All gerontocracies need to end.

3

I was thinking not “elected” no later than 65 but forced to retired NO LATER than their 65th birthday. So a presidential candidate no older than 60, for example.

They did the maxipad on the ear thing for like a week after God himself came down from the heavens and saved Trump from James high school rifle club reject sniper Bond 360 noscope. Maybe this time they will wear adult diapers to show solidarity.

Hahahahahahaha holy shit!! (No pun intended)

You can hear it loud and clear. 

And then you see the lady in the back "scratching" her nose. Like you know something smells like shit. 

22

I thought this was going to be some "yeah, maybe, but probably wishful thinking". Nope.

The woman behind him even turns to look immediately. Guess no one warned her to play it cool.

I'm a Free Thinking Republican and Me and my Friends are about to POOP Our Pants in Public in Support of President Poopy Pants! Trump! Our Wives left us!

Its real. Your can hear it.... See the reactions.... Then he quickly end the session and wants everyone out of the room immediately.

Plus, listen as the open mic catches an intern saying something like "I don't want to do this again"

13

About 33 seconds into the clip there is a squelching fart noise. It aligns with the lady in green's quickly-stifled horrified reaction. The fart noise had a wet component to the sound, as if liquid was oozing out in addition to gas. It's quite probable that he ended the meeting because he gave himself a mud ring and had to go wipe it and change his diaper.

9

It's such a perfect sound it really does seem fake, especially if you listen to it a couple times to be sure.

Like the opposite of semantic satiation.

After so many listens, it's stops being a fart sound and starts sounding like an obvious sound effect added in for gags.

It just elicits a visual, you can tell with you ears it's not dry.

If he’s old enough that this is a concern, then maybe he shouldn’t be the president of the goddamn United States

If this was intended as some sort of gotcha, the man has already said that he's too old himself. This isn't some partisan thing.

Lose? He's been working on passing the torch. That's way more useful than clinging to power past your prime. But I understand your point, thanks for clarifying

It's the smart thing to do for sure. Invest in the future Vs cling to the past.

Bernie is probably one of the only few that old who isn't a blithering tard so fine we can lose one

I guarantee Bernie's not shitting himself. He's not a junkie that's high all the time like trump.

I would normally agree, but this man deserves to feel shame wherever he can get it.

On top of that fuck him, if he doesn’t want to be laughed at for being president poop pants he shouldn’t be old and president and poop his pants at the same time.

You're right but I'll make an exception for this asshole in particular. He shouldn't be president at this age. He should be in prison for attempted coup.

17

He should be in prison for attempted coup.

Or for pedophilia. Or for rape. Or for money laundering. Or for probably dozens of other things.

Why the fuck is our president shitting himself while on duty? Fuck him.
