They’re keeping the press 100 yards away & not allowing them to photograph him on the golf course. Apparently everyone is using a 2005 Motorola Razr to take his picture, as well. It’s ridiculous. Anyway, we’ll all know soon. Can’t keep lying to us forever with the horrible physical state he’s in.

I think it’s him, but his face is really swollen. Also, there’s no one behind the eyes. When elderly have serious end of life issues, it changes the way they look. Almost overnight, sometimes.

Yes. They’re driving to the golf course, but he’s not golfing. My guess is he’s squirreling out the back and has been at Walter Reed a lot this weekend.

I can see something in the pre-enhanced photo, but it looks more like he’s growing a juvenile ball sac on his forehead rather than a pump-knot. Could just be shadows. But the bigger Q: why is the press being kept so far back? Why do these photos look like they were printed on dot matrix?

It’s a likely just a lazy cover story so he can get treatment at Walter Reed this weekend w/o public scrutiny. Make a show of him heading out to play golf, then post old photos of him playing golf without technically dating it. Notice the caption doesn’t say “today.”

It was him yesterday morning leaving w his grandkids. The press verified it. They were there. But I don’t think he went golfing. No photos or video from the course. I bet he went straight to Walter Reed for treatment of whatever’s making him look like a bloated corpse just pulled out of a river

Thank you. I guess it was the sugar pepping me up all this time. I only drink one coffee a day in the morning, so I don’t think it’s about tolerance. The only thing I’ve changed is no sugar in it. It’s more than just “not feeling it.” I get powerful drowsy about 30 min after I drink it.

I’ve also randomly decided to stop meat and/or alcohol. Last time, 5 yrs for meat, 10 yrs for alcohol. I always figured these were just personality quirks or stress responses. ADHD doesn’t run in my family, so I suppose I’ll find out when I get tested.

I bet he can diagnose kids who suffer from “excess melanin” just by looking at them, too.

My magic trick is I can just look at him and tell he’s an idiot.

Another common trait is they can be real assholes sometimes.

Genetically, chimps are more closely related to humans than gorillas. So close, we even share the same tickle spots, like our bellies & under our armpits. 😍

Whatever we do, we mustn’t call them Arabic numbers. Oklahoma will try to ban math.

The don’t call Afghanistan the “graveyard of empires” for no reason, Donald. Also, ahem… the obvious underdogs that every 1st grader knows about. 🇺🇸 Does anyone know his actual IQ? Like, is he for real mentally disabled?

Thank goodness for the East. So much knowledge would have been lost or never discovered without them.

I like to think he’d be horrified by his MAGA children & grandchildren. He taught them to be better.

Most of the whites in town probably owed him money & they needed food, so they weren’t going to say shit about how he ran his store. The building itself was still standing on our land until a few yrs ago when it finally collapsed. He also ran the town livery stable!

Yeah. It’s strange. I think of him more like a great-grandfather bc all I ever heard were stories. He was for sure considered “eccentric” by white friends, but he somehow walked the fine line of being a decent human being during a horrible time & place for poc while not alienating his “base.” 1/

Well, they made him get recertified every year when he hit his late 80s & he drove like Mr. Magoo, but he learned to shoot in WWII & still had a dead eye for a target. 🤣

I would take more comfort in this if I didn’t know that the period between the Fall of Rome & the Enlightenment lasted over A THOUSAND YEARS.
