US Politics, November 2019: These people are truly sick.

'Something.'

The fact that they try to reach him, personally, via the airwaves is really sick and weird.

his son had to wish him a happy birthday on Fox & Friends because they don't talk to each other

i'm afraid to say the hospital visit is probably just a scheduling fuck up. there are probably dozens every day.

As many people have pointed out, the White House has a medical facility in the building. He could have gotten his cholesterol checked by walking down the hall. Instead, he was motorcaded to the hospital. This was absolutely not a "scheduling fuck up."

If he had a stroke and can’t talk, sooner or later the public will find out.

It’s not the 1910s

idk he could barely talk as it was

― Οὖτις, Tuesd

snort

I can't say with certainty that I'd notice if he actually suffered a series of mini-strokes in the midst of a public appearance.

Xpost also reports stated that he had his NSC meeting in private quarters yesterday and hadn't visited the West Wing all day. And cleared much of his schedule.

A source also suggested he was hustled into the vehicle for the drive to Walter Reed, suggesting urgency.

I doubt dude is like, dying, but I really don't think it was a physical. Since when do you do it in six month spurts? I have minorly high blood pressure and I have one physical and three month checkins. Data from six months ago may no longer be very accurate.

Xpost you're probably joking but you really don't always notice the TIAs.

My dad had a bunch of mini strokes and nobody knows when they happened. Rather gradually he just stopped talking and holding his hand funny over a period of a month or so

where's the whistleblower?

Yeah, an uncle of mine turned out to have suffered a series of small strokes over time. Not good, but at least it was caught and understood in retrospect.

At one point in the proceedings, Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.), the top Republican on the intelligence committee, referred to Vindman as “Mr. Vindman.”

“Ranking member, that’s Lieutenant Colonel Vindman, please,” Vindman quickly responded.

heh

Complains about press speculation he had heart attack. Says his physical was “very routine” and it’s the media that is “sick.”
More to come

Yeah, I know mini-strokes often fly under the radar. I just meant he could be speaking to the world on camera in medium close-up and no one would be able to say for sure whether that slurred neologism he just drooled out was the sign of a contemporaneous brain event or Trump being Trump.

i'm afraid to say the hospital visit is probably just a scheduling fuck up. there are probably dozens every day.

No way. He spontaneously rushed out of the White House on a Saturday (with no tie on) to get a head start (?) on an annual physical several months early? This is not a thing. He could have had anything mundane done at the WH, the only reason to go to Walter Reed, let alone with no advance team or notice, was something alarming, emergency or not. And he has been isolated (literally, this time) ever since.

Dude probably has pneumonia or chest discomfort or something and probably whined like a little bitch the entire ride there and doesn't want everyone knowing he has choochoo trains on his underwear

Apparently michael collins from usa today saw him in the meeting?

He might be back to business today.

Yesterday he seemed not to be

"i didn't have a heart attack. You did. In fact you're dead now"

He speaks!

Trump on his unscheduled trip to Walter Reed: "I went and did a very routine — just a piece of it, the rest takes place in January — very routine physical." He visited soldiers then returned to White House. "I get greeted with the news, 'We understand you had a heart attack.'"

This is the most transparent administration in history so I don't know why y'all are speculating

Honestly this is my favorite bit, namely that Melania didn't even know.

On his surprise visit to @WRBethesda on Saturday, Pres Trump says he went for a very routine physical, though even the First Lady asked him about reports he had a heart attack. And when asked by his press office if he was okay, he said he responded, "okay from what?"

okay from what?
december thread title

The funniest thing is even the conspiracy theorists didn't say "heart attack". They said "chest discomfort".

Dude coulda just had the farts and freaked

Sounds like the James Brown CNN interview

December 2019: I’m concerned, ‘cause there’s nothing wrong!

So unfortunately he is alive, however he looks and sounds like shit

Nah, he's dead.

TRUMP offers these uplifting words about Democrats: "These people are sick. They're sick. And the press really in this country is dangerous. We don't have freedom of the press in this country. We have the opposite. We have a very corrupt media." pic.twitter.com/ukt4AGZevc

They're sick for caring about his well being, that's for sure.

Are you saying we're...

Slumerican Shitizens?!

"routine" by definition means that it was planned! This was not planned and is not routine! words mean nothing!

It's routine, when someone has chest pains, to do some tests.

I do not care about his well-being. He's not a well being and I would prefer him to stop, well, being.

well said

"Okay from what" would also mean that we think about Lil Jon's finest hour every, er, hour.

Jim Jordan is a real dumb asshole in case no one has noticed that before

him not going to meetings and clearing his schedule is nothing new. he's a lazy piece of shit.
if he stops golfing we will know something is wrong.

D’s are racking up the soundbites today.

Not a good day for the president.

Nunes has nothing lol

Rep. Omar with a nice bounceback from the Armenian contretemps:

Sharing my full letter on the the sentencing of Patrick W. Carlineo, a man convicted of threatening my life.

We must apply a system of compassion to criminal justice.

Who are we as a nation if we respond to threats of political retribution with retribution ourselves? pic.twitter.com/s96jjh8AlD

Maloney: "You're putting yourself in direct opposition to the most powerful person in the world... Why do you have confidence that you can do that, and tell your dad not to worry?"

Vindman: "Congressman, because this is America... Here, right matters."

Wouldn’t put it past GOP to orchestrate a fake hospital trip to create a distraction from the impeachment hearings

A parade to the hospital.

They’re not that smart

Wouldn't put it past these chumps to orchestrate a military parade to the hospital with Trump riding on the tip of a giant missile.

xp Trump is too vain for that. It implies he isn't the perfect human specimen.

no collusion!
