Donald Trump posting a week-old photo has heightened scrutiny of his health.

Amid continued concerns about his physical well-being, Trump posted an image of himself playing golf with a former football coach.

But, given the photo was taken a week ago, people raised concerns about a potential attempt to hoodwink the public about the true state of the president's condition.

Please Donny give us a real Liberation Day

Well, he's finally found something that can successfully divert our attention from the child rape: his obituary.

He's most likely medically unfit to serve.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 27 points 16 hours ago

I mean, he always was, but he still is, too.

[–] azimir@lemmy.ml 19 points 16 hours ago

Add it to the list of reasons he's unfit.

I really don't wish death or bad illness onto anyone, but man! does he make it hard!

Hopefully on a hospital bed, barely hanging on. Now we just need someone to trip over the power cord.

I think maybe the only thing worse than Trump as the president is Vance as the president

[–] tfm@piefed.europe.pub 13 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

Depends on his political support. MAGA doesn't really care about Vance. He isn't able to behave like Trump (hopefully).

Vance is in the pocket of Peter Thiel. With that kind of power and money backing you, it doesn't really matter what people think about you. I assume we'll go through figurehead after figurehead for the next decades or two, and then slowly balkanize

[–] tfm@piefed.europe.pub 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Sure Thiel is extremely powerful. But so are others, and when Trump dies, they are all trying to fill the vacuum.

That's the kind of fight that everybody loses, especially us

If Trump passes, then fingers will be pointing to who is responsible (even if he is obese and unhealthy). Vance is so scummy, I don't doubt people would blame him for Trump dying.

Well he already murdered the pope...

diversion from his nonfileshareing. Sharing is caring, which he is not.

This is the free internet, you are allowed to say Epstein.

"I wanna try and get to heaven if possible. I'm hearing I'm not doing well. I am really at the bottom of the totem pole."

He was inadvertently relaying what the doctors are telling him.
