As Signs of Aging Emerge, Trump Responds With Defiance | In an interview, the president says he has eschewed some advice from his doctors and regrets getting advanced imaging - SLRPNK

> The large dose of aspirin he chooses to take daily has caused him to bruise easily, he said, and he has been encouraged by his doctors to take a lower dose. But Trump has declined to switch because he has been taking it for 25 years. “I’m a little superstitious,” he said in the interview. This seems to be an effort to head off the fake-hand conspiracy theory [https://bsky.app/profile/joshtpm.bsky.social/post/3mbapsfyhgk2i] This post uses a gift link [https://www.wsj.com/us-news/as-signs-of-aging-emerge-trump-responds-with-defiance-769c5dcd?st=zxxwVU&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink] with a view count limit.

Here’s to hoping his 2026 is short and final.

He is getting the best medical ever available in the history of mankind. They kept Cheney alive for weeks without a heart and that was 20 years ago . I think we are in this for the long haul.

The heart is just a pump. You can simulate it pretty well because is, basically, “plumbing”.

When the organ failing is the brain, that’s a much bigger issue, especially if the patient is a narcissist who loves being in front of crowds. They can keep him alive, but they can’t keep him sane and mentally fit.

He hasn’t been sane or mentally fit any of the times he has ran for president. No one seems to mind. When he said he could shoot someone in the street and not lose a vote he was totally correct.
Show threadAbsolutelyNotAVelociraptorJan 1
You are right. But one thing is saying crazy shit, and a very different one is becoming a dementia patient who barely knows his own name. And he’s going that way spectacularly fast.

As long as he remembers who he hates, he will be fine with his voters.
Show threadAbsolutelyNotAVelociraptorJan 1
He won’t for long if he keeps declining at this rate. Hopefully, he will be a veggie before the year ends.

I wonder how long it will be before he starts using racial slurs (in public).

Regan did that for a long time in office. His wife was running all too much of the Executive branch.

The rules are only effective if they’re enforced.

He has never regretted anything in his entire fucking life.

"Let’s talk about health again for the 25th time,” he said at the start of the interview. “My health is perfect,” he added.

Quick, bring out the conspiracy theorists - he’s admitting there have been conversations about the 25th amendment!

LOL, “signs of aging”.

The mainstream corporate media, excuse me, “liberal media”, has long had this stupid narrative that they put forth. They think it’s entirely reasonable to act like both Biden and Hillary ( remember how she was nearly at death’s door back in 2016, according to these meatheads in the bothsiderist machine?) are older than dirt and anyone questioning their age related to taking office is just being reasonable, etc.

Meanwhile, we are supposed to accept that Donvict is just somehow, in spite of his age, his weight and his lack of exercise and his constant raging out, some kind of spring chicken who is the pinnacle of health, even though he’s almost as old as Biden and nearly the exact same age as Hillary?

Not only that, but when he took office, he was older than Biden was when he started his term.

Somehow, the drumbeat of “Biden so old” was a constant, but the media seems almost afraid to talk about how Taco is older than Biden was during his term. And when is the last time Taco ever got on a bike? I mean…WTAF. I guess IOKIYAR applies as much to this as nearly everything else, and of course, to make this even worse, lots of inter-generational circular firing squads have been created by the ever-helpful liberals/left to constantly squabble about a “gerontocracy”, but again, mostly focused on policing the age amongst their own, FFS. 🙄
