No-one is mentioning Trump's stroke

[CharlotteCChapel]

It's like tumbleweed out there. During the live televised 9/11 remembrance service Trump's face drooped on one side.

No-one in the mainstream media seems to be mentioning it.

Ive only seen it mentioned on IHIP and the Meidas Touch.

I don't aspire to be a better person. I'm not running a country. I'm nice to people who are nice or neutral to me, avoid the bad 'uns where possible, but when someone in high office is an utter arsehole I reserve the right to say so, and even to wish them ill because I don't believe that "it comes back on you" stuff. He doesn't know or care who I am or what I say. I am not in a position to actually do him any disservice; nor would I actively do so if I could, well, probably... My morbid fascination with the health of a powerful, deeply unpleasant person does not affect that person in any way. I am also aware that when he becomes incapable of doing the job there are other, equally unpleasant replacements in the wings so it's not a cause for rejoicing as such. I do remember the hideous mocking of a reporter with cerebral palsy and think there is a certain karmic element here, but the orange blot on the arse of humanity is unlikely to ever reflect and repent.

King Charles would be throwing more than a few pens if he ditches the State visit for a mate's funeral.

I doubt he will cancel, but my point was I suppose that if he did, well that's the writing on the wall.

Not a medic here but understand the signs to be aware of with a stroke. In the video I've seen I'm intrigued by the way he looks at his right hand, then his left hand and then his right hand. He then has a look of slightly pensive consideration. I wonder if he was experiencing weakness in that right arm. I'm no fan of the man but if he was having a stroke whilst he was in full view of the nation on TV I feel for him. It must have been a very scary moment for him.

Which is why I clearly said spiteful, not mocking.
HTH

It’s the state of how people are now online, wishing physical harm. No matter someone’s political stance it’s people losing it.

Can you elaborate on this please?

We should react how we feel fit.
I have no sympathy for a narcissist.

I think the video footage from the 9/11 ceremony shows more evidence of a possible stroke than the still photos.

Yep, it’s the decline of society. So much aggression around now.

Unpleasant isn't it, EasternStandard?

But then HQ were quite happy to leave up the salivating over the possibility of Trump being assassinated, so ...

clinician here and I agree

He was mysteriously out of sight for several days recently. Not like Trump at all. Mini strokes often occur as a series.

It has been happening for a while now, mostly directed towards Democrats though

If I had a family member like Trump I would have dropped him decades ago.

The man's serial abuser, rapist and and oxygen thief.

There was nothing spiteful in their description either, just an observation
HTH

There'd be medics swarming all over him, if true. There is a reason an ambulance and medics follow him everywhere and it's not to stand by watching while he has a stroke.

Fair enough.
I'd just like to see civilisation doing better than lowering itself to Trumps level.

Well said.

I'm not lowering myself to his level though, I just don't care about a narcissist.

Im not celebrating anyone getting shot or even the orange blob having a stroke but they have not in any way generated any sympathy empathy by their actions, words or deeds. In fact Mr Kirk wasnt keen on either sympathy or empathy and was prepared for the odd sacrifice of life in pursuit of maintaining the second ammendment. This is easily googled for those of you who doubt this) As is often the case the Kirks and Trumps usually arent expecting that sacrifice to be them or their family but rather some other sucker.

Now the orange blob is cynically using this situation to deflect from his epstein involvement and simultaneously conjuring up a civil war so he can cancel the midterms, while conveniently ignoring the gun totting murderous antics have usually come from his own base.

Don't forget Bell's Palsy also causes one side of your face to droop - I have had it so I know!

Yes I agree.

There's a difference between celebrating the assassination of a man with unpleasant views and being perfectly happy for nature to take its course with a 79 year old serial abuser and rapist.

If it was one of my family members who had been repeatedly accused of sexual assault for decades then I can’t imagine people would be especially upset. And I’d think that was fair enough.

Surely if Biden wasn’t a narcissist - with a massive ego - he’d have stood down when he became ill. The fact he didn’t, and was determined to continue, shows a similar level of narcissism and arrogance. Biden was just quieter about it. He was an equally unpleasant man with equally unpleasant policies depending which side of the fence you were. Same with Trump - enough people voted him in.
