Trump is looking very ill and out to lunch too.

https://www.thedailybeast.com/trump-80-unravels-over-botched-vanity-project-in-morning-meltdown/?utm_source=bsky_owned_snd&utm_medium=bsky&utm_campaign=owned_social

The fluid filled bags under both of his eyes are getting more noticeable. It used to be just
under his right eye, now it is under both, his face looks like he is out to lunch, and why is he
holding up some print out that says “American Flag Blue” when the Reflecting Pool is not blue
and they are going to have to drain it and try to restore it like it was before?

Do I need to get some bubbly just in case?

Tear up the JCPOA agreement and then try to paste the agreement back together the way it was, however. this time any agreement will be way worse. Iran is not giving up control of Hormuz. Iran may promise it won't enrich uranium but at least the JCPOA had inspectors dropping in on Iran's nuclear facilities. Iran may promise not to arm Hezbollah and the Houthis but how will we know?

When the good news finally comes, I imagine there will be a run on the liquor stores. Better stock up now.

I'm going to have the song, "Happy Days Are Here Again" on repeat while I drive around my area with the sun roof open and windows down. I'll bet I get a lot of thumbs up and cheering.

Is getting to him. Israel and Iran have told him to get stuffed, algae in the pool, name off of the Performing Arts center, judges holding him accountable and republicans in congress looking under cushions for courage ,dignity and trying to save their seats. I think they call it narcissistic injury.

Personally, I don't think he's going to hold MAGA in thrall, and the GOPers in Congress probably are anticipating that. So there will be quite a few knife fights when the Big Change arrives. I hope he croaks before November, so GOPers will have a chance to prove themselves a pack of ghouls before people fill out their ballots.

You just know the complicit media is going to force us to see a public display "the likes of which we have never seen before".

We have to outdo their noise with ours! Parties, high fives, smiling, beaming faces, happy music and dancing in the streets!

Apparently assholes have longer life expectancy.
We have been predicting his demise for the past few years and yet he rebounds every time. I thought Covid would do him in and he somehow survived it.

on our dime. None of us would've been flown to Walter Reed and been treated by some of the best doctors in the country at the first cough. Hell, most of us wouldn't even have been admitted to a hospital until we were ready for life support.

There probably aren’t many lunch counters that would even serve Trump before calling Social Services, an ambulance, or both.
