Donny, are you ok?

[GoCubsGo]

Can he please just have a stroke?

The sooner the better.

Can you imagine the celebrations when it finally happens?

I'd even roll the dice with JD.

JD has zero charisma. Trump does. I think the MAGA cult will disentegrate once their golden calf passes and gets flushed down to hell. Cults need a charismatic cult leader.

Probably won't matter at that point though, since a large chunk of Americans and self proclaimed conservatives have given up on maintaining the values of a republican form of government and law abiding society.

The executive orders may be of the same nature, but congresscritters may not roll over for him with the same deference as DonOld, mostly cause they won't be as skeered.

[O Really]

Yeah, Trump isn't the only wild-eyed drooling right winger, and likely others think up half the crazy stuff he says. But nobody else is Trump, and Trump wannabes have had marginal success and never get the totally committed following. But I'd agree the underlying support and societal commonality in the (former) United States has eroded away faster than a sand spit in a hurricane.

In a spurt of Pollyanna mysticism, though, I think it's possible that lame-duck politicians like Tillis, et. al. give some clue as to how repugs might be once they aren't so skeered of Trump. Maybe still loons, but tolerable and somewhat predictable.

Fingers crossed, both for the stroke and the tolerable loons.

White House Rages at Rocker Who Dissed Trump’s ‘Vulgar’ Oval Office

DonOLD sure is a big fat when an entertainer disses him.

... White, former front man for The White Stripes, unleashed on Instagram on Monday, claiming that Donald Trump’s torrent of gold and gilded additions to the office were an “embarrassment to American history,” describing it as “a vulgar, gold leafed and gaudy, professional wrestler’s dressing room.”

“Look at his disgusting taste, would you even buy a used car from this conman, let alone give him the nuclear codes?,” White said, posting a photo of the Oval Office. “A gold plated Trump bible would look perfect up on that mantle with a pair of Trump shoes on either side wouldn’t it?”

White House Communications Director Steven Cheung:

... White’s post has had almost 120,000 likes and is the latest of many anti-Trump comments the 50-year-old has made on social media, which has seen him label the president everything from a “obvious fascist and wannabe dictator” to a “Nazi clown.”

Darn nice of Cheung to make sure the latest gets the maximum number of views.

When one comment on his Oval Office post said “it was an insult” to compare “this gold poop” to locker rooms, White noted, “I agree that pro wrestlers don’t deserve the comparison.”

White has won 12 Grammy awards, his first being for the White Stripes classic “Seven Nation Army”, a song which Trump used without permission in a campaign video last year, prompting the musician to threaten to sue him.

“Don’t even think about using my music you fascists,” White wrote in a fiery Instagram post responding to the video.

Opps.

Despite Cheung claiming White’s career has “stalled”, his most recent album, last year’s No Name, was nominated at the 2025 Grammy awards for Best Rock Album.

His next major gig is the CBGB Festival in Brooklyn next month, playing alongside Iggy Pop and the Sex Pistols....

Cheung is a whiny idiot, just like his boss.

Not a very good article, but it's better than nothing.

And his cankle sores do need to be talked about some more.

Trump, 79, Sparks More Health Concerns With Surprise New ‘Heaven’ Declaration

... On Aug. 12, he twice said that he was traveling to Russia to meet with its president, Vladimir Putin, despite the meeting scheduled to take place in Alaska. The following day, he referred to the Russian city of St. Petersburg as “Leningrad,” a name that has been retired since 1991....

Not ok.

FYI:

Cankle, an informal term that is a portmanteau of "calf" and "ankle", denoting a lack of definition between the calf and ankle that can be genetic or caused by lifestyle or environment or by several different medical conditions that cause leg, foot, or ankle swelling, including obesity, edema, and congestive heart failure

canker sore ... benign and non-contagious mouth ulcers (aphthae) in otherwise healthy individuals.

Sometimes, severe lower extremity edema can lead to ulcers, but they're not called "cankle sores".

Maybe it's from having seen so many of them without shoes and socks, but I don't think the cankles are a big deal. However, DonOLD's sensitivity over them and desperate attempts at a coverup are hilarious.

Trump Goes Off Deep End After MSNBC Mocks Cankle Cover-Up

... During a monologue on The Last Word, (Lawrence) O’Donnell noted that Trump took the almost unheard-of step of sitting behind the Resolute Desk during a meeting with European leaders in the Oval Office on Monday, rather than the usual spot in front of the fireplace.

O’Donnell said Trump made the move to ensure that “no one was going to compare his ankles to a French president’s ankles or a German chancellor’s or a British prime minister’s.”

Snowflake.

... The White House also appears to be working to hide Trump’s bloating issues, going so far as to release an official photo of his meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in which a model of Air Force One is conveniently positioned to block the Republican’s ankles....

I thought chronically swollen ankles were a symptom of poor circulation, often due to heart failure. Amiwrong?

It's one thing, but there are others.

They claim trump has chronic venous insufficiency.

But they've been known to not be truthful.

Not necessarily the heart. FTA I linked above:

... Chronic venous insufficiency is common in men over 70 where weakening vein valves prevent blood from circulating properly in the legs, causing ankle swelling....

Too much golf cart, not enough ankle movement.

[neoplacebo]

In another few days trump will "weave" back into making Canada part of the US, invading Greenland, and LAWing about China controlling the Panama Canal. Later the same day he will announce he's renaming New Mexico to be New Texas, stop by a McDonalds and serve fries at the drive up, and then sign something a kid hands him and he holds it up like a trophy fish. The cult will gush in awe. Wait and see.

Worth completing the post:

BREAKING :

Donald Trump just hijacked his own FIFA World Cup press conference, with Gianni Infantino standing and smiling like moron, to brag about getting a photo from Vladimir Putin that he plans to sign and send back.

Then he went on about how Putin wants to come to the World Cup in DC and how “very respectful” Putin has been.

This motherfucker turned a global sports event press conference into a Putin fan club moment.

Can you imagine the protests if Putin arrives? This will never happen and Dementia Don is a clown for suggesting it.
