There's only one way to stop the rumors about Donald Trump's health: a press conference. Why won't he talk to the press, and why isn't the media doggedly demanding it?

Or a corpse! 🔨👈🏼🍺🍺☮️
Youre correct & your follow-up is a good question.& why won't he do that? I have a feeling there's going to be a changing of the guard he's either going to be stepping down or behind closed doors he is in the process of being removed let's hope for the second part a traitor does not deserve a pardon
The Nixon thing is already been done & it was wrong for Nixon to be pardoned for his crimes theres absolutely no way in hell an insurrectionist who sits in the oval office not once but twice should be allowed a pardon & not be properly punished for that treason along with his co-conspirators as well
Like other fascist regimes, the lack of transparency regarding the health of the leader is important to keep the masses under control. The United States is no different than any other country under fascist rule.
There's no truth from anyone at his press conferences. They all lie for him and no one calls them out. I don't believe him or anyone who speaks for him about anything. Ever.
Media scmedia
Have him walk, unaided, 50 feet to a podium. Do a five minute interview, then turnaround and walk away, unaided. Otherwise any of his sycophants could write some blithering on a phone.
Or have him crawl to the podium, drool and pass out.
The media likely know his fate and the consequences of covering it up. @jaketapper.bsky.social is unlikely to be hired again. It’s the end of Republicans, and the chances of a Nuremberg style trial for thousands of supporters is high. My guess is that he has been incapacitated.
Statistics. Math. His younger brother Robert died at age 71. His sister died at age 86. His brother Fred Jr died at age 43. Life expectancy for an American male is 75.8 years.
bsky.app/profile/ajna...
His dad had Alzheimers at drumps age.
Trump’s had Alzheimer’s since he came down the escalator but that didn’t stop certain people from voting for him.
I don't think it would matter if he had a press conference. There's no such thing as independent or Free Press anymore. These so-called journalists lost their spines a long time ago. They'd rather kiss ass than ask a hard question or push back on a blatant lie. They're useless.
It would matter if he couldn’t stand up straight, or speak without noticeably slurring his words.
Trump never talks to the real sentient press. He only talks to Kaoline's flock of geese.
I prefer the death announcement
That narcissistic SOB avoiding the fawning attention of the press, is a dead (or soon to be dead) giveaway.
Yup
It's hard to get the strings to stay attached
Remember Todd Blanche? Well he was Trump’s Attorney for The Stormy Daniel’s Hush Money Case In New York, he was charged with 34 Counts against him so that makes him a convicted felon
Or a final action.
Sorry, i lost control. I really do not wish death on anyone.
1. We love the thought of his demise; 2. See No. 1.
Where’s the CNN countdown clock?
What's the point? They'll all lie about it anyway. Unless @msnbc.com @cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy @abc7.bsky.social @nbcnews.com @cnn.com are willing to actually DO INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM, get inside docs, it'll be like McConnell. GOP can stand comatose in a presser & nothing is done abt it.
Wouldn't that just give him one more opportunity to lie to the American people? I have no hope this would be a useful exercise.
Yeah, but we need someone who would tell the TRUTH & there's NO ONE in Trump's REGIME that does that! If we hear anything at all, it'll be a LIE or half truth at best! We need a good LEAKER!
I wonder how much the court ruling against him on the legality of his tariffs has to do with him hiding from the public? Personally, I hope it's health-related.
Just like when he got Covid 19 and denied it
I am actually enjoying not hearing his voice or seeing his face. He needs to stay hidden.
Me too.
I mean, one would think Jake Tapper would be all over this. 😬
Because we ALL just hope it’s true!!!!
As you’ve pointed out many times, we’re in the movie War Games, where Joshua has to learn that “the only way to win is to not play the game.” Except, Joshua was a super computer + the people who need to ‘learn’ are Trump’s voters. . I think we’re headed for Trump being Gaddafi’d in the street.
MSM knows that telling the truth will make them get shit on by the regime. Why is this a question? You already know the answer.
I find his silence refreshing. Let’s hope it continues.
Corporate media is a complicit part of “the machine”
If (as I think likely) Trump had a port installed, so that his needed daily infusions won't go on bruising his hands, they should admit it. Because the speculations are MUCH worse. (Psychotic break; major heart surgery, etc.) But they won't want to admit that he needs daily infusions, of course.
MSM has definitely failed America, gone are the days when news reporters actually simply reported the news. Now all we have are biased opinion based political "alternative facts" carefully and carelessly worded for clips, ratings and corporate greed for ads dollars.
What if Joe Biden was afforded a second chance on stage w/ Trump? Like Obama was in 2012, when a serious sitting POTUS was dumbfounded they had to deal with Romney's performative bullshit in the first debate. And Mitt's not even a terrible guy for a Repub. Americans hate weakness, Dems. Full stop.
I think we're all enjoying the hope.
Hopefully it is because dump is about to leave the building 💀🤡💀🤡💩💀
Even if he did talk to the press, he'd lie about his health. He cannot show weakness to his base.
Where is Jake Tapper. When is that asshole going to start hammering the demented madman for not being fit for office. He won't do that cause he'd shit his pants if the felon was mean to him. He's the kind of reporter that bashes a good president like Biden rather than the pedophile president.
Yup
You know exactly the answer to why. The media has been complicit for decades. The pursuit of truth is not their goal, nor is it even on their checklist.
They’re going to fast track Project 2025 while hiding the fact that the pedo is dead. Fascist takeover complete and oh yeah, he’s dead. Welcome to hell.
Fuck that, once he’s officially gone, they won’t be able to control the narrative or all the people out in the streets celebrating.
Where's Jake Tapper?
Found Jake.
Dude is in a bad way. It's all falling apart. Good thing you didn't get Biden with his health.
@jaketapper.bsky.social Hey Jake, isn’t the President’s health your beat?
and why isn't the media doggedly demanding it? BECAUSE IT'S NOT JOE BIDEN?
The reason the media isn’t demanding it is because, tragically, the vast majority of the media is owned by conglomerate oligarchs and all the oligarchs care about are tax cuts and no regulations…that’s why new media like Meidas Touch is so critical in the fight to save democracy.
Since he is not talking which is hs fave thing to do, could have had a stroke
I’m still waiting for the medical reports from his supposed ear wound. He will hide the truth forever.
We’re in “Weekend at Bernie’s” mode!!!! 🎉 🎈 🎊 🎆
You know the media would be all over Biden.
Because a large amount of the corporate media are either running scared or have owners in with Trump’s Project 25 objectives. Such a Press Conference should be given by Trump himself, in front of a collection of journalists from major outlets. For example: CNN, NBC, CBS, BBC, Reuters, AP, AFP.
The fanboi media such as Fox, Newsmax and OAN need not apply.
Because it’s been Stephen Miller running the country this whole time
I anticipate a big power struggle between Miller & Vance.
YUP!
He went to China for the dictator party.
Something something Biden something
🤣🤣🤣
The press doesn’t ever call him out at the press conferences.
Because he curated the wh press corps to only the bestest suck ups. He removed all real reporters.
Because the media only questions Democrats and only amplifies MAGA.
He died. Or was clouded to heaven. Or... well.... he might be gone. Just gone. Invisibilitycloack, maybe? He didnt like black, others didnt like orange. Maybe he was on Musks rocket. To Mars. Greenlife now. Only Goat knows. I think.
"Many Octos live for years with splotchy hands like Trump's. Especially since the advent of drugs like Eliquis. In some cases people bruise by merely brushing against things. They walk around looking like prunes on feet...but walk around they do. I'm one of them.' Izzie Zenning.
Let him be examined by an nonMAGA physician huh?
When did Rodney Dangerfield come back from the dead? 😝 IF that’s Führer, he’s looking very rough these days.
I think he forgot to put his teeth in
That could be a double.
Looks like shyte, either way.
First of all, “Don’t trust dictators. Never. Seccond, because dictators can not be trusted and citizens do not demonstrate massively, the country is lost. Do realize that. After Trump there will be standup another autocrat. Its all in your American republic party hidden!. Impeach.
Media/press are complicit as they reflect the bias and politics of their corporate overlords.. They knew about Trump's sexual predation since '16, however failed to investigate or report on most of it... There are hints about Trump's health, but once again fail to investigate or report it...
Jake? Jake Tapper? Anyone?
For the same reason he didn’t submit DNA in the E. Jean Carrol case to prove his innocence. Same reason he doesn’t sanction Russia to show he condemns their invasion of Ukraine. Same reason he doesn’t release the Epstein files to prove he’s not a pedophile.
Yup
Building the suspense
Chemo??
I am enjoying not hearing him talk. I am happy he is quiet and will be happier if he stays that way😉
Press are 🐈’s scared they won’t be invited back onto Air Force 1
Let’s tell the media that Trump is hiding information about Biden’s health
He died to distract from the Epstein files. #StableGenius
ishedeadyet.us
Hey Jake! Maybe an idea for a book!!
I think he knows he's not very popular right now and he needs his gang of misfits around before he speaks. He apparently doesn't feel great and he can't show this to us, he's weak. I really think this Congress needs to grow a couple and impeach his ass maybe that push him over the line.
It comes increasingly obvious doesn't it?
Cause the rumors are better for them than the reality. That's the only logical explanation we can draw. They'd rather have the country wondering what's wrong with him that actually know.
Karma is going to make an example out of him. He mocks disability, illness, injured soldiers, old age, asylum seekers and anyone experiencing problems. Soon he'll be like me...just a head on a stick...and frankly, not a moment too soon. #RIPdonald
Media is weak and scared!
And they should be the ones with courage.
I'm waiting for Obama to head over to the White House to pressure Trump into dropping out of the 2028 election.
If we listen to the Epstein victims we don’t need no stinkin files.
The victims have been reporting on him since 1996. Maria Farmer went to the FBI in 1996.
All the better.
Love this❤️
You don’t change Ghislaine Maxwell’s sex offender registration status and move her to a minimum security prison closer to her family and twin sister in Texas if you care about Epstein’s victims. You do it if Trump raped children, she knows it and she promised to stay quiet.
Can we get Jake Tapper on this post haste .. books don’t write themselves ya know 🤨
Keep an eye on Vance and Roberts, especially if Roberts is carrying a bible.
Where is Melania ?
The media failed us long ago. We are on our own.
Untrue. He could also stop rumors about his health if he died.
Where’s @jaketapper.bsky.social now?
Obama’s tan suit made media shockwaves. Joe Biden eating ice cream at a public beach did too… You would think a sitting presidents HEALTH would warrant constant media coverage… but no.
why isn’t HE demanding it? we KNOW WHY.
He would only LIE!!!
Wouldn't actually dying stop the rumors?
Let's try it and find out?
You know, meh… no one told them to cover that.
The press is not responsible to report on the health of Republican Presidents, it's just not in their wheelhouse. /s
🤣
Foreign heads of government, on the other hand...
Because he isn’t Biden.🤷🏼♀️
Or Obama
I am so angry at the media, tech bros, and an actor who lives on Lake Como who pushed Biden and Harris out for all this. I hope their tax breaks are worth it.
So many WHYs?? ..and WHY so afraid? Is it all just a gross concentration of wealth causing this broad institutionalized appeasement? Is it time to storm Versailles?
Fuck the media. They are all afraid of a frail old man who is incontinent
Yes!! Where in the hell is Jake Tapper?
That's right, I would like to see the funeral plans. I got a party to organise!
Hillary sneezed and it was front-page news that she was on her deathbed from pneumonia! HILLARY DYING! But a nearly 80-year-old president with clear signs of circulatory symptoms... nothing.
The media demanding it? Ha, that's a good one.
The media, mainstream media, isn’t going to do anything their rich oligarchs don’t tell them to do. They know Trump is a sick old man, but they can’t report that because of who owns them, and they all paid Trumps tribute and bent the knee.
Manipulation
They're playing chicken about his health
It's hard to hear calls for a press conference, when their heads are firmly implanted up his ass.
come on - Trumpy needs a vacation after the beating he took from Putin a few weeks ago🤣
Because rumors of his dying is another way to get rid of EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN
I think it’s all smoke and mirrors. He’s building the suspense so that right as the Epstein Victims have their press conference he can magically appear at the same time and all the media will focus their attention on HIM not the VICTIMS!
This one is so good.
Because he's a sick sack of crap and doesn't want anyone to know. I'll bet even the Republicons can't wait to be rid of him.👍☹️
Like they did demanding “proof of life” and a press conference from Biden. But…… it’s always been a double standard with these fuckers
Exactly!! The MSM was all over Joe if they perceived him to be looking impaired in any way. The double standard is deafening.
Come on Tapper and CNN. Get that book deal advance payment. Start the book already!! ABC News. Just think, you could get Back at TACO for the money given.
Ha!
Easy. Billionaire owned MSM is the propaganda arm of the 4th Reich.
Those pics of him yesterday "golfing in Virginia" ....with palm trees
So... it's old footage or they lied about his location (or both). These people are incapable of not lying.
Because his name isn't Joe Biden
Remember the "assassination attempt"? The magically healing bullet wound in the ear? That's what this is. He'll reappear after Wednesday.
That was all for PR, not the complete silence going on right now. They wouldn't be hiding a fake "heroic act". They would be hiding a fake "picture of health"
Counting the days!
Can he speak?
Honestly, I’d just rather he were really sick and dead soon
Naw, I would rather haul in his MD's, handlers, staff, and the first lady to testify in front of congress. Along with all of his medical records. It's what R's wanted during Biden's term so offer a this as an olive branch towards bipartisanship efforts.
Since when does he spend the weekend in DC? Something is clearly amiss.....
He's supposedly in Virginia, allegedly golfing with a guy who should be covering the opening weekend of college football.
Most presidents age because of global stress on the job, T-Rump does not feel those stresses, because he has no empathy. The stress of being found out about Epstein is aging him quickly. Keep up the pressure! youtu.be/_KywDujjLnc?...
Could it be that following a stroke this large garbage bag filled with disgusting waste has temporarily lost the ability to speak?
Could just be another distraction, another stunt...
He’s too sick to pull it off. (Obviously). I’m Team Tertiary Syphilis.
For god’s sake - President Biden was hounded about his health 🤬
and President Biden the man that was sooooo out of it that he had to step down was a 8am mass in a suit down at the beach this morning….shaking hands, smiling and chatting it up…a big F -you to the white house press corps… NOW DO YOUR JOB😡
The WH press corps has been culled to ONLY have Trump supporters in it!
Absolutely true!
As was Hillary.
Well, rumor about Epstein, no release of files or information Rumor of TACOS health, no release of files or information
Stroke victims aren’t great at public speaking?
Like they did w/Joe Biden. When word got out he uses a cpap machine - as 8 million Americans do - it was treated like some kind of scandal.
An open casket would serve the same purpose.
I dunno...just keep hoping to watch Swan Lake
Maybe they need a break from the smell of decay. 🤷🏻♀️
Distraction. Yet another distraction.
Bluesky is getting a little conspiracy heavy. That does not solve problems.
Didn't mean to post that in this tread - though I was starting a thread. Please excuse.
It’s not even close to X/Truth Social/Threads/Facebook in that category.
But it’s good entertainment
Does the media "doggedly" demand anything? Ever? Oh, yeah, Biden's health.
Good question! Longer he is silent. Knowing his health is being talked about. Is suspicious & hopefully Terminal.
Also, WHERE ARE THE EPSTEIN FILES?!? Still haven't forgotten, no matter how sick you might be.
Because the media that would be the ones to demand it are the WH press corp, who have proven to be a bunch of craven cowards.
Ick-i don't want to hear his dribble. Won't make a difference to his supporters
Why are the media doing whatever it is they’re doing most of the time? I don’t even recognize them anymore.
Joe Biden had one bad debate and they were calling for neuro exams and Parkinson's evaluations and everything else under the sun. WTAF!
bsky.app/profile/hear...
He’s not been holding press conferences like he did his first time around. Wonder why?
My first thought is minor stroke that is causing him to slur his words, this is completely out of my ass, but it's possible.
From your ass to God's ears 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Yup
Had that happened, he should be hospitalized.
There's medical center in the White house and considering it's very likely they've known since the election or before that he wasn't in good health it's very easy to have had that upgraded to keep things hush hush. Again, pulling it out of my ass but doesn't mean it's not possible.
www.presidency.ucsb.edu/documents/st...
True, but when he had covid, they took him to Walter Reed.
And it was a huge fiasco in the press, they are trying to keep his health from us because he's so sick. It could be as simple as he has covid and one of the new variants has similar effects as strep throat too. Like i said all speculation
I think that tells us he was in a very serious condition with the COVID.
Let the prick die on his own
The press is owned by the same people who enabled this piece of 💩 to be President, why would they tell you the truth. The longer he is in the office, the more it will become propaganda than truth (or factual news). In other words, the 4th estate is broken.
It is clear that in his current state, whether mental decline, physical infirmity, or both, Trump is no longer presentable to the public. JD Vance stepping up to say he's ready to takeover the Presidency would not happen if Trump's situation was not a matter of grave concern.
If he dies or is dead, I hope they can try and convict him posthumously for all the crimes he has committed, they release the Epstein tapes....and his collaborators go down with him. All his money, assets and family assets should go to repaying the many victims.
You must be joking! Congress will carve Trump’s head on Mount Rushmore, if he dies. We will then have President Vance, who is just as vile, only smarter than Trump.
If he had a stroke and was incapacitated even for a while, who was in charge? Who had the nuclear football? JD?
Why? Aren't you tired of asking why regarding what he does and doesn't do? A question like that is a normal question. But, there's not one thing normal about him or any of his actions. You certainly know that by now. Right?
They kept Woodrow Wilson’s incapacity secret for a YEAR
My uneducated guess is he remains front page news by not showing up and it appears as concern and not criticism. But I keep checking the Obits anyway, and ready to sing "Ding, Dong the Witch is DEAD"
Stop. He doesn’t look like that
He does look like that 😁
One Big Mac over the line Waiting for the train that goes home, sweet Mary Hoping that the train is on time
😂
Please don't ever post that image again without a trigger warning.
Fugly
This massive cheek and jowl guy unconsciously meant "grate." It's where he lives.
Oh my!!
Dementia patients can sometimes have "psychotic breaks" - they can deeply lose touch with reality etc. and it can last for several days. Just saying...
Yes. We see that in a family member. Two very different people.
He's also a candidate for occasional TIAs which can compromise your speaking and memory. Would need to be evaluated/do some tests
Yep, for sure. I've also seen UTI's cause this type of thing in the elderly.
If he has an in dwelling Foley catheter that can make you susceptible to UTIs
If there is just God, Trump would have a stroke that renders his speech slurred just like the man he made fun of all those disgusting years ago
If Biden did just one thing Trump has done in the past seven months the outrage and continuous coverage it would garner.
Biden hasn’t been president since 1.19.25 but pos47 brings him up daily! Go Joe!
He wouldn’t do it but the media is complicit.
I’m still hearing “sleepy Joe”. Yet same folks say nothing about Dump’s rhetoric. It really is hard to believe.
Yes.
When Biden wasn't in public, they accused him of hiding in the basement.
Wasn't tRump hiding in the basement during some crisis?🤔
Yes. People then held up signs: "BUNKER BABY."
👆👆
I’m old enough to remember Trump erecting walls around the White House to keep protestors out, so…
But more often than not, he was just getting ice cream and acting folksy with all he met. Miss him.
Heck! When he WAS in public they accused him of hiding in the basement!
Great one!
yes, I agree with you 🤝 you can get this shirt from here, if you want it 👇👇👇 viralstyle.com/c/rneoaa
Maybe the media is happy to have a break from the nonsense lol
Who is the real President right now? How long has he been incapacitated? Who has been making the decisions all this time? Did he even know what he was signing these past months? They explained each thing to him like he was a child, and he responded as though hearing it for the first time.
The real president is Russell Vought.
It’s been Stephen Miller since Jan.20.
I don’t think Stephen Miller has the same clout with the Heritage Foundation that Russell Vought has but I could be mistaken.
Because it will go something like this.
He will give a eulogy at his own funeral, probably something pre recorded, it will be made available for purchase, special 3 disk set of his funeral. Come with a pillow.
And the 🍊bible with the Constitution and the Bill of Rights And also a special Sharpie
All disks $ pillow made in China like the Bible’s & hats.
I’m sure he’s got that planned in advance. Narcissistic serial liar! 🍊 💩
Would be great if none of the previous presidents attended. But they are all more gracious than the felon. Plus, we DO need to make sure someone sprinkles garlic and has a couple vampire stakes handy. You never know!
Not just any pillow - MY Pillow!
Precisely :)
That would be hilarious if it wasn’t so likely!
😂😂😂👍
If it were anyone other than trump, the press would be shrieking about it.
Something has definitely happened.
The man cannot stand to not be the center of attention for more than 5 minutes. It’s been 5 days of silence and grainy, long-distance photos aren’t gonna wash.
Where is tapper? 🙄
It takes about 2 weeks to get over covid ..if you get over it.
Helping them buy time to create another “assassination attempt”?
Because they’re still focused on on Biden being old.
Why isn’t the media doggedly demanding it? Because he’s not Joe Biden.
Seems to me most questions these days begin with, "Why isn't the media ... "
He'll be dead or incapacitated within a month or two.
They're trying to show him respect in this difficult time of his being dead.
Aren't some of the Epstein victims going to testify this coming week?
Bottomless mimosas for DC brunch the White House "write what they tell us to say" Correspondents Association can't be bothered
Because the press is rigged or was that the election? Which was also fake or was that the news?
Put him in jail now who cares that the racist felon pedophile is sick is mentally sick for treating girls and women like he did for years so fuck him !!!!
Because he isn’t Biden and the press is terrified their meal ticket might be ending. Just spit balling, ofc.
Where's the felon?
Where's Jake Tapper?
I worry that this is all a designed distraction from all his legal losses and the CDC crisis.
I thought that too, but he is such a media whore I just don't think he can go that long...
Well, whatever the reason, even having five glorious days of not having to hear his fucking voice has been worth it.
It really has been!
I'm OK not seeing or hearing him. The daily trump shit show is exhausting. Maybe he lost his sharpie and can't issue his daily decrees.
this otter got to his cell phone .....is a canadian operative
For the same reason, there was no justification for pressuring Biden to provide a ‘sign of life’ just to satisfy the media and social networks. Attention should remain on issues that genuinely merit it—there are plenty, and they are very grave.
#TrumpisBRAINDEAD
He cannot stand and talk that long, and he owns the press so they won't demand it.
Since when has he stayed in the White House for a weekend? He cannot shut his mouth and suddenly he won't talk. I bet he is in treatment and a body double is being used.
his doctors are still working out the kinks on his new "cocktail of uprightness" the promotes presidential perpendicularity
Because they were told not to
When Hillary was running, Giuliani was on CNN regularly to say how seriously ill she was. She wasn’t even the president.
@maddow.msnbc.com any comment?
The press is chicken shit. Not sure why they are journalists
It’s all jake tapper’s fault @jaketapper.bsky.social
ALSO ALL THE RELEASES OF TEXT ARE LEGIBLE AND NO ALL CAPS tells you he cant even write/text
Why be transparent about his health now? They never have. And by not having a press conference they keep everyone talking about him which so far has been successful.
Our MSM sucks. They are and have been complicit.
Massive cover up. He's failing.
The major outlets should just show is portrait and play soothing music.
Because they really are the enemy of the people?
We should be so lucky 😂
