Grotesque, greedy, gullible, graceless, gaslighting, gormless, god-forsaken grifter - Trump thread #147

[Spandauer]

Desperately seeking that Peace Prize.
May have to settle for the Hero of the Russian Federation award. Bigly sad.

He looks like shite in that photo. (ill shite as opposed to orange shite)

And theories are still being thrown around as to whether something is up with El Orangino.

IMO I think something is "up" - possibly a TIA/mini stroke? (and maybe not the first one this year, going on the previous leg dragging, not walking in a straight line etc)
(Disclaimer - I have ZERO medical training!)

For him to stay in DC for the holiday weekend is completely out of character so why? Medical intervention/treatment?

Not speaking to the press, keeping a distance from press cameras - it is all out of character. 🧐

Is Melania around or is she still hanging out in NY or Florida? Would she care?

Melania has been spotted taking an unannounced tour of Walter Reed.

He’s been looking sicker and sicker for a while. I’m wondering if it’s something chronic and they have reached the point where he’s now so bad they can’t put him out in public without absolutely everyone realising how sick he is. How they are going to get out of this if that’s the case I’ve no idea. Whoever has his truth social account now doesn’t appear to be him unless he’s managed to get more literate and coherent over the last 24hrs or so.

Where be them laughicons?

Those TS posts could easily be AI

I’m so sceptical of anything that smells like a conspiracy, and this does. The only thing giving me a reason to pause is that I can’t imagine him being content to be out of limelight for 6 straight days.

He's certainly looking increasingly unwell and haggard - not even particularly orange anymore which I guess may make him look worse

Few people noted on the photo post above that he appears to have the back of his head/neck shaved - can't think of any particular medical condition requiring that???

I think he hasn’t played golf for 14 days before that appearance either. Half of me thinks conspiracy theory the other half definitely thinks something is up. No golf and no media appearances for a week - that’s definitely not Donald like behaviour.

Head lice? She said hopefully.

Maybe his hair is just so disappointed in him, it's given up and died?

Was it something in the Alaskan air?

Or in the tea 👀

Special Russian Handshake and Cup of Special Tea in Alaska. "Vlad! You brought your own samovar?" But of course, Bigly, no one else can make tea quite like us. Don't spill it. It's hot.

Trump's Gaza Reviera plans resurface as we see less and less about the Epstein files in the news.

Newsom on form today.

A number of Epstein's victims are coming to D.C. on Wednesday to give a press conference from the steps of the Capitol building so it should put his name back in the news again. Some of the women have never spoken publicly before and this press conference is part of a bipartisan push to get Congress to vote on getting Bondi to release all the files. They have enough votes to pass it if it comes to the floor.

I have been away for 48 hours but checking back into ‘where’s Don?’ watch…

Twitter etc are absolutely wild with conspiracy theories, but he is definitely unusually quiet…

Obviously absolutely gripped now I’m back home!

Truly the stuff of nightmares.

Photo passed along from a federal employee from inside the Dept of Labor building, where a giant Orwellian image of Trump's face is now draped outside.

Big Brother is watching.

Some announcement coming at 2pm (ET)

(must finally have a new bottle of San Tropez - holiday delivery delay?)

I think he's throwing the mother of all tantrums because Modi, Putin and Xi didn't invite him to the biglyest swinging dick party of the year.

OK - stand down and back to what you were doing...

POLITICO Playbook reporting Trump’s “announcement” today will be “focused on defense”

But will still be tuning in to see what shade of orange he is and whether he's casual/tieless and wearing a bigly baseball cap to hide the back of his head.

“Focussed on defence”. I dread to think what that could mean!

He won't be keen on the Finland-UK warship deal. Fortunately he'll be long gone before they'd be needed to keep his sticky mitts off Greenland. And as above, left out of the China jollies. He'll be sulky and vengeful.

He'll be sulky and vengeful.

^This is news? 🤔🙄

I bet he's sitting down all the time. No chance to see him stand/walk.

And the wonky eye and checking for any slurred speech.

They’ve had him stuck behind the desk not moving for the last few so I guess that will continue.
