Isn’t this fun? He doesn’t do it often enough to do an error of the day or a gremlin of the day. We have to enjoy it where we get it. He was at a function in the White House. This issue appears to be getting worse, not better. But there’s no doctor here, so we can theorize to our heart’s content. My compliments to Raw Story:
President Donald Trump’s latest glitch at a small-business event stunned a political analyst on Tuesday.
On May 4, Trump attended a small business event in the East Room at the White House, accompanied by Kelly Loeffler, his Small Business Administration secretary.
During the event, Trump appeared to nod off while Loeffler was speaking, and at one point looked like he was sleeping while standing up, according to political analyst David Pakman.
Pakman discussed the event in a new reaction video on YouTube.
“Dear God, he is standing up and falling asleep!” Pakman said.
“At another point, an incredibly disoriented Donald Trump, roused from a dream state, says that he could end employment with the swipe of a pen, which shocked people in the room.
They are silent because I guess what Trump means is that he could end unemployment. But Trump goes, ‘I could end employment with the swipe of a pen.'”
What???!!! But worse than that faux pas is him falling asleep *standing up*. Remember the column where we discussed his health? Here’s more of it. These are just more signs that he doesn’t need to be our ‘president’. Imagine if he said something worse!
“This man is not well,” Pakman added.
Trump’s health has been a great concern during his second administration. There have been several instances where Trump was seen sleeping in meetings.
His ankles have also shown signs of significant swelling, and bruises repeatedly appear on the back of his hands.
There is a second Raw Story article here about his hands. It’s a quick read and adds to this column. Why is he still President? Why doesn’t anyone but independent journalists put two and two together? He’s not only doing his rage posts at all sorts of hours of the night. He is fading in public. Democrats in Congress are trying to show that he has problems. But we are outnumbered.
Some psychologists have said Trump may be experiencing symptoms of frontal temporal lobe dementia.
Others have speculated that Trump may be showing signs of heart failure.
Pakman noted that Trump’s speech at the small business event was “not remotely coherent.”
“He says, ‘I could end employment.’
What?” Pakman said.
“Trump then joked about getting out of office eight or nine years from now.
I think we should not take the bait on this. That’s my instinct.”
Agreed. Let us not take the bait. We will talk about it and try to get it spread far and wide. Whatever is going on with Trump is a major concern. If his brain isn’t connecting to his mouth, who knows what will come out of him? And when. So, this is somewhat of a repeat topic, except we got more information than we had previously. We are watching him decay in real time, and it’s a bit unnerving. Fell asleep standing up. When will the “big” people do something about this?
See you soon!
Friends, I know everybody begs you for money. I promise you that of all of the outlets bugging you for spare change, we are the smallest and the hardest working. We’re a bunch of old, disabled people, except one writer in his mid-50s. But the rest of us are in our sixties and seventies, and this is a labor of love. All we’re asking for is the ability to continue our quest to tell the truth about Trump and help ensure democracy survives. If you can help, please do. Thank you. Ursula
Nah, there’s no way Drumpf could be experiencing heart failure since that requires having a heart in the first place. Earthworms and other invertebrates have primitive circulatory systems with some chambers occasionally called “hearts” but they’re not so special that if one fails, the animal can no longer function. If anything, THAT is what Drumpf has–only in a primate body so a failure at any junction can be fatal.
