Look, as someone from the United Kingdom I feel obliged to tell you that the “ he’s got weird hands” tactic is one we have tried and we still have a monarch, so I don’t think this one is gonna stick the landing chief.

It's been interesting watching people forecast Trump's imminent demise due to conditions my father has managed for over 20 years, with a much worse medical plan.

It's so funny though that he was like "here, use this makeup its what I use for my face and it's a PERFECT match"

Its not about weird: it's a health watch, nothing more. His hands are puffy; his ankles are puffy. He has edema. He has a diagnosis that no one knows whether to believe or not. He has a large long-standing bruise on at least one hand. It doesn't heal. He's had COVID. He has the world's worst diet.

Well, as @margaret.bsky.social has said (if I recall correctly), forming the United States was, in many ways, a lateral move where we traded one empire for another.

I'm 42 and sometimes my hands swell up for a number of pretty benign (if irritating) health reasons. Getting old means your body sometimes just, sort of, does weird stuff. This isn't really anything.

Without any other context sure. But they guy is geriatric, has lived off McDonald’s for decades, doesn’t exercise, is incontinent, consistently brags about how good his health is while also publicly sundowning. The orange corpse is falling apart

Oh, I'm not saying he's in good health, there are definitely alarming signs of cognitive decline, but some of the stuff people are obsessing about is honestly fairly ordinary stuff.

Fair. People are clinging to any shred of hope that he’ll croak on his own before we’re forced to help him along

My only question is - why are they SO BAD at makeup? Blending, skin tones, just all of it.
