OPINION Lawrence: Trump uses his desk to hide his swollen ankles & his Atty. Gen. to hide the Epstein files @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com describes how Donald Trump can hide his ankles from European leaders behind the Resolute Desk, but “that is the only problem the desk can help Donald Trump hide.”
Lawrence O’Donnell is my spirit animal… and Trump has swollen ankles!
We call them cankles!
When your cankles go all the way up to your knees… you, my friend, have a problem!😳😂
We have to expect nothing but lies & deception at every turn with djt.
Please get on the phone or e-mail and tell your reps in DC the hiding needs to stop. 75M voted against 47. It only takes a few minutes and it doesn't cost any money. We don't need money in politics. We just need people to participate. www.nationalfinancialplan.com
America has become Trump’s Fox News Appointees Administration “Reality Show”, to entertain the MAGA 77 million voting Base. This would not had happened without the dead-letter-literal-interpretation of the Bible, Christian evangelical fundamentalists obsession with abortion & gays, etc..
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
Should we call them 'trunkles' or 'trumpkles'?
Hilarious coming from Lawrence O'Donnell who is well known for bending over and grabbing his ankles.
Watched you last night. I did not know Scott Bessent was gay and married with two kids. Wonder how that goes over with conservative Christian republicans.
Listening to you talk about the train stations in DC. Your colleague Joe Scarborough has spent several mornings telling the world how dangerous that area is. He apparently wants Trump to institute martial law across the nation. When will @msnbc remove JS from his job? He spends 4 hours every day 1/2
2/2 lying to the public.
Joe has gone over to the dark side.
I was just thinking about that segment! I would love to know if Trump has publicly reacted to your show. I bet there was ketchup all over the walls for Walt NAuta to clean up after that.
youtu.be/O6EzqLPbMt8?...
So good.
I trust steak tartare from a food truck with no refrigerator in August more than Ghislaine Maxwell
Lawrence, I enjoy your show and commentaries. You surprise me tonight when you didn’t mention how Trump misspoke and said that Netanyahu and he were “war heroes “!!! Surely, Trump knows that you have to fight in a war to become “war hero”. However they do qualify for being “war crime”criminals.
As always, an excellent program. Trump is damaged. It’s irreparable. We can all see it. Lawrence O’Donnell is summing it up, and it’s like a purge,to watch his show.
You mean #Kancles #McTacoTits ?
youtu.be/R8AGEjj2Jds?...
Lawrence just watching and heard you are going to have a week off. God Bless ya my friend. My brothers and I will miss seeing you every night. Enjoy every little thing on your vacation. ❤️🙏🇺🇸😊☘️. See you in September!
Keep at it Lawrence, you are doing a great job of exposing the little man.👏👏👏
He is far beyond the point of no return, where there is no rest for the wicked! RELEASE ALL OF THE 1,000s of UNREDACTED EPSTEIN FILES to protect all of our precious American innocent children! RELEASE ALL OF THE EPSTEIN FILES ASAP!
💖LO'D but-Venous Insufficiency is caused by incompetent valve leaflets in the veins of the calves-this decreases the ability of blood to be pumped against gravity up the lower leg-leads to swelling, can also lead to skin ulcers. Obesity is a factor, but is usually from long-term prolonged standing
Odd, then, that drumf has it since he mostly sits slumped like he's going to be a complete puddle soon.
It is usually in people who don't walk much to develop calf pump mechanism in lower leg, & can run in families. Jobs that have prolonged standing rather than walking-like Real Estate, & Standing @ a podium contribute
was still🤣🤣🤣, even if not completely accurate
Also-if he doesn't wear medical grade compression stockings soon-it is going to progress to venous stasis ulcers, which are very painful & weep a lot of drainage😣-plus they stink🦨. I can't believe he can even get his feet into shoes❗
Trump's ankles look like my father's, who had congestive heart failure. Accompanying the swollen ankles and feet was cellulitis in his legs, which looked like severe sunburn with badly peeling/oozing skin and sores. Bet Trump has that as well; he hides it under his baggy pants.
Can look very similar, but he would be exhibiting breathlessness & poor physical endurance too, & he hasn't shown any symptoms of that...yet.
Trump is carefully staged in public appearances so as to show no need for physical endurance, not even to turn a doorknob himself, so that's iffy. But I agree I haven't seen him get breathless when he's bloviating nonsense. Still hoping for a massive heart attack or stroke, though.
I have wondered if he may have had a small stroke after he left office. His words have been more slurry, & his mouth droops frequently. I wouldn't wish harm on anyone, but...divine intervention & all that. as far as endurance, even though golf isn't strenuous cardio-wise, he gets around pretty well
plus he does get up the stairs to AF1, although w a stumble or 2 that he recovered pretty well-maybe...🧍↘️🕳️-🤞
I read somewhere that they now have Trump use the shorter stairs at the back of the plane because of fall risk. He only uses the "big boy stairs" when cameras are on him. To be fair, I think Biden sometimes used the shorter stairs as well.
He may have had a mini-stroke during first term, secret visit to Walter Reed that never explained. He now has problems with his whole right side, droopy face, dragging leg. At golf, he drives, gets out of cart, hits ball, walks a few steps at a time at most. Even drives on greens so as not to walk.
And the adult diapers hid the defecation, but nothing can hide the smell.
I bet there are folks who could organize and resolve the original mistake by just Putin, Clinton or Bush?, and Great Britain - that should mean that us and the Brits step up with boots and air boundaries in Ukraine’s defense. We want Ukraine’s postwar market and intellectual capital.
They need to get better at hiding his swollen brain
💯
It's a great comfort to watch you Lawrence, every week night, and know you will never pull a punch. See you tonight
More.
Love your satire as always, Lawrence O'Donnell.
Maybe one day MSNBC will be appealing to leftists... You know, if they'd hire one. My inbox is open...
But he can't hide his fat head.
Mad at Trump for Kennedy Center, DC, Smithsonian? Imagine being black. Think about how we feel watching him erase our culture and ancestors.
Master class in old school journalism 👏
The Holocaust was committed by Europeans, but Jews haven't stopped discussing it and expecting more protection than Americans, while Trump and MAGA Republicans push the happy slave myth. @donlemonofficial.bsky.social @joyannreid.bsky.social @michaelsteele.bsky.social @aliciamenendez.bsky.social
Love that he snuck in the fact that Bessent is gay. How many magats know that?
I didn't know that Bessent is gay. I wonder if Trump knew when he hired the guy.
I think Trump's desk-sitting goes deeper. He seems placed there before all gatherings in the Oval and never stands, even to greet visitors and shake hands. It looks weird. My guess is he's using a wheelchair when cameras aren't on him because walking hurts a lot and he's a huge fall risk.
Hands off Lawrence O’Donnell, NBC. He’s mastered the art of trolling Trump and if you interfere with his reporting like I suspect you have with Joe Scarborough, I’ll walk.
‼️-Agree, but but they didn't make JS Stoopid, Arrogant & Obnoxious! You can't compare the 2 in the same sentence. Plus Lawrence would quit before he sacrificed his integrity!
Not comparing the 2 but after years of working in the Corp HQ’s of 2 Fortune 500 companies, I know how it goes down.
So far MSNBC has been backing it's anchors. Except Joy Reid, & have you noticed they don't have ANY Minority talent as a single anchor anymore-x Velshi, & that's because of his enormous talent. MSNBC is restructuring & leaving NBC-they have been doing viewer job evaluations- MSNBC Insights
Symone is missing this week - I hope it's vacation. She's so good; smart, passionate, articulate.
Jen Psaki is off too, I think the Mom's are getting the kids ready for school
Nope. Scarborough sabotaged himself when he immediately ran down to kiss the convicted felons fat ass.
Spot on, Lawrence! Thank you once again,for a great show.
Again.. we’re so grateful for Lawrence O’Donnell’s smart honest informative reporting.
Agreed!
doubt it hides his stench
☺️we watch you every night!! we love you , truth matters!! and its a total relief to hear it every night from you Lawrence you are the best!! keep telling the truth it matters!!!
Lawrence you are the best.
Dear Lawrence, my friend desperately wanted you to know that what the 🍊 💩 has are called “canKles!” = a hybrid of calf + ankles!! That’s when they’re so swollen you can’t tell where one ends and the other begins!
