I don’t wish him dead but I don’t like him and I won’t be crying when he does die. I don’t hate him as that is a harsh emotion, and I don’t know him to hate him.

I agree with you entirely. So much insane hatred for dodgy old Trump, and yet stomach-churning, monstrous evil like the individual you mentioned is somehow more palatable to them.

It’s not a question of being more palatable. There’s no comparison. One man committed a shocking, dreadful crime; the other is inflicting damage on millions of people. I personally have zero sympathy with either of them. False equivalence isn’t some kind of gotcha.

jumpingthehighjump · 31/08/2025 15:46

Who says he is more palatable? Is that because posters on here haven't posted on a thread about that murderer? Are we only allowed to hate one person?

We can feel extreme hate for more than one person you know...

I hope to god someone reported that disgusting piece of vitriol.

Meanwhile I wish Axel Radubakana was dead. And for the record I think he looked like a wild maniac on his mugshot (something people at the time were accused of racism for at the time )

Meanwhile white man may be likened to Hitler, wished that he'd been assassinated and looks picked apart just for good measure.

Welcome to the new world we live in folks...

Incidentally, I don't wish Trump dead. But I do wish him actual bone-spurs, because that would simply be justice.

There is something weird about a cult which absolutely denies any sign of humanity in its leader, I feel.

It is part of the human condition to age, to suffer ill-health as a result of aging, and to die as a result of ill-health in old age. Denying these facts seems very strange to me.

He (or his account) has posted

"the world will understand... Nothing can stop what's coming" ❓❓❓❓❓

Is it about RFK Jr. revealing the cause of autism?

Elsewhere on social media, a nurse commented that the hand bruising will have been caused by an IV used to administer diuretics...Heart failure was the first thing that came to my mind, but - given his age, his kidneys are probably in a bad way too.

When my dad died, we were told that the diuretics administered for heart failure had damaged his kidneys further.

I'm not a nurse, but surely there are more discreet ways to put a line in ?

I wouldn't put it past Trump to fake his illness, so he knows who and where the dangers are.

Has anyone promised they'd kill themselves to save Trump, yet ? Worth reading up on what Little Boots did ...

I didn't say he was healthy. I said people attribute bad health and exaggerated obesity to him when they dislike him.

He seems to them to embody his badness.

People attribute bad health and obesity to him because he is obese and unhealthy and lies about it.

Well... people only report on what they see.

He IS obese
Without his orange make up and wig, he looks even older than he is
His mental faculties are declining hugely
He has bruises on the top of both hands
His ankles are very swollen

All that is fact

WearyAuldWumman · 31/08/2025 14:54

CharlotteCChapel · 31/08/2025 13:38

He's not healthy though. According to the white house he has chronic vein insufficiency. Most commentators have suggested that its more like to be heart failure due to the sheer amount of swelling. He's also showing signs of dementia and if that bulge around his thigh is attached to a catheter he may have kidney disease too.

He lives on McDonald's and diet coke and doesn't exercise so he's a perfect storm for these.

Donald Trump is not a healthy man.
He has a terrible diet.
He is morbidly obese.
He is lacking in concentration and memory.
He displays signs and symptoms of physical illness.
And mental decline.

We know we cant trust WH doctors to tell the truth if they won't even tell us the truth about Trump's current height. Didn't they lie for Biden?

Why the fuck should we trust them about Trump?

If he has a catheter it’s as likely to be incontinence as a result of dementia as kidney disease.

CharlotteCChapel · 31/08/2025 13:38

Bambamhoohoo · 30/08/2025 14:40

Why would he be dead though? It’s not exactly common for people even at his age to drop dead from being perfectly healthy. Seems somewhat random

They were both too old to be president, at least in a system where the president has so much power as an individual.

But Trump, at any age, has truly vicious tendencies that make him a far worse danger than Biden- or even Bush to use an example of someone whom I would not support, but at least wasn't trying to set himself up as dictator.

No, Trump as a person is utterly unsuited to political power, I agree. He’s a felon, convicted of rape in a civil court, a documented racist and should be in prison. I was just making the point that a tit for tat on which of them is too old/unwell for the presidency is pointless, because both are.

MaryMungoMidgley · 31/08/2025 13:34

Trump will have it written in his will that Vance has to be buried with him when trump dies. Hopefully the same applies to Elon musk Jeff bezos and all the other billionaires - he won't want them to be alive while he's dead

LillyPJ · 31/08/2025 13:31

ToWhitToWhoo · 31/08/2025 13:16

No, but that would be the result if Trump were to die (or resign).

Of course. But that doesn't mean that people who wish Trump wasn't president would like to have Vance instead! There are other alternatives.

When he eventually does die he will be dancing with Hitler and the devil. The young brave man who tried to assinate him was killed. He was inches away from killing him. I fear for Zelensky and the future of Ukraine. I admire his fighting spirit. Putin and Trump will never die they are too evil.

I detest Trump as much as you do, but that doesn't make violence the solution. That 'brave young man' did actually kill an innocent bystander.

Fedupwithnamechanging · 31/08/2025 13:24

Being dead would mean he got away with everything - no repercussions for his vile behaviour. I hope they do a "Cromwell" on his body for his crimes.

HarrietBond · 31/08/2025 08:53

I think the PP is right. It’s quite obvious that he is wearing striped golf shoes if you zoom in on that photo.

The totally binary approach to politics in the US now means it’s apparently impossible to accept that both Biden AND Trump have physical and cognitive decline. It’s not either/or. Both of them are far too old to be President. It’s not ageism to say that the majority of people in their late 70s/80s will not be robust enough to take on such a responsible and demanding role. How the US has ended up in a place where these were the only two candidates says a lot about its political health.

They were both too old to be president, at least in a system where the president has so much power as an individual.

But Trump, at any age, has truly vicious tendencies that make him a far worse danger than Biden- or even Bush to use an example of someone whom I would not support, but at least wasn't trying to set himself up as dictator.

Please don’t tell me that Bluesky is as full of horseshit and lies as X. Some carefully curated progressive lives would be rocked.

It's social media. It can't not be that.
