Dude will be 80 next year, the idea that he's not somehow having major medical issues would be bizarre.
I'd love for a reporter to ask "So how's the Leqembi treatment going?" and watch him either a) explode or b) Go on at length how it's an amazing drug and he never felt better.
He's 80 and he has a very long and public history of making terrible health choices
He'll have to call them "piggy" a few times in the process, either way.

the idea that he’s not somehow having major medical issues would be bizarre
Both my parents were in rude good health at 80. Not everyone's feeble at that age. Then again, unlike Trump, both parents were following exercise and weight-training programs, not eating fast food, and showed no signs of cognitive decline.
I’d love for a reporter to ask “So how’s the Leqembi treatment going?”
He's too stupid to know what it means, so he'd just insult the reporter and change the subject. Or assume it had something to do with his leg.
Remember when the Republicans wouldn't shut up about their theory that the Biden administration was covering up Bidens supposed health problems? You know, exactly like they're doing for Trump now?
Every complaint is projection. They're terrified of being called out on their bullshit, but simultaneously forgetful of the evil things they said during any democratic president's term.
Jake Tapper and his stupid book all but poured accelerant on their claims earlier this year. And look who is oddly quiet now....
No he’s not. He is a god. And a pedophile. And a rapist. But a god. Look at his orange manly non makeup wearing self. 8’9” tall. -7% body fat. The energy of 1884 12 year olds….not the ones he raped. This man deserves a made up peace prize from one of the most corrupt organizations on the planet.
Evil narcissists live forever because they feel almost no anxiety. They are so assured that they're right, or so disconnected from accountability, that they don't even know how to stew in feelings of doubt or imagine scenarios where they aren't coming out the hero.
This is also the source of the confidence that lets them basically soar through life untouched by consequence.
The rest of us live in a stew of stress hormones that erode our organs and minds because we worry if we're taking care of the people we love and if we're going to make the right decisions in life.
Is nobel pretty corrupt?
They’re talking about the “Peace Prize” that FIFA gave him this week.

Ohhh. So that's why Trump wants to rename the NFL
I hate that this asshole has any influence on culture at all. Dude just cannot stay in his lane, and so many people bow to this fuckface.
I don't even watch the NFL and don't care about sportsball at all and this annoys me. It's probably just the fact that one of the most pampered and idiotic and unqualified person on the planet is putting his fingerprint on everything.
I saw that and assumed it was an onion headline...
Unfortunately, NotTheOnion.
When he dies they will replace him with AI and the Supreme Court will rule it constitutional.
That AI has a name, it's Grok.
I believe it. You heard it here, folks!
Well I hope the illness gets on with it and he dies already
He will last another 6 - 10 years. That fat fuck has health care not even a billionaire can dream of. Miller and the rest will prop him up ala Weekend At Bernie's, but he will be just cognizant enough to ramble through a speech and sign an order.

Information about the treatment. It actually seems to line up. Infusions at two week intervals. Routine MRI’s.
I honestly think he was diagnosed with dementia all the way back around the "man woman person camera tv" incident.
When someone has a neuropsych eval, it's never just ONE test, it's a set of several. Another very common one is the clock drawing test, which can be highly indicative of alzheimers or other forms of dementia.
The simple fact that he wasn't also crowing about drawing the best clock anyone ever saw makes me think that one did not go well.
Hope he fucks off this mortal coil soon. Wakes up dead one morning type thing. As is common for octogenarians.
What's wrong with months of pain, fear and helplessness first? If anyone deserves that, it's Trump.
What's wrong is that he can still cause harm while that's happening.
I almost guarantee Stephen Miller or someone is going to Weekend at Bernie's some horrendous shit through before trump's death is publicly announced.
Then we'll get a 6-3 supreme court decision saying it's ok.
They kept Cheney alive without a functioning heart. No way he goes out from something unless it is catastrophic.
Big difference in keeping a brain alive with intensive heart remediations vs keeping a brain alive that's intent on dying from the inside. Ain't no stopping those amyloid prions after they reach a critical concentration.
Mayb if democrats spend half of their time actually working on their agendas and topics we wouldnt need to hope for trunp to be serverly ill.
So that's why he agrees with whoever he spoke to.
Oh, I do hope it's serious
Best of luck to the crisis!
I still wonder what kind of experimental medications/treatments he was given when he got Covid during his first term.
Trump is the symptom, not the illness.
From what I remember it wasn't even proven this drug works. There were some data suggesting it might have some positive effects and since there is no known treatment for Alzheimer's it was approved to "give patients a chance".
I work with the Alzheimer's drugs somewhat frequently, and there are ~15 patients I know of on Leqembi specifically. It's not meant to reverse or stop anything, but rather slow progression -- which for Alzheimer's can be a miracle. You're not going to get on the med or even be evaluated for Alzheimer's unless you're showing some deficits though, and you absolutely need evidence of plaque build-up.
