A serious medical inquiry into the continued biological persistence of a 79-year-old man who eats like a raccoon in a McDonald's dumpster and ,sleeps like a philosophy student before finals.
We are always leaving out, one Very Dangerous Symptom (in his position) of Dementia —one which I observed & saw finally “diagnosed by a Geriatrics specialist” in my now 94 y.o. mother, some 3 - 4 yrs ago: “Complete Lack of Insight”, sometimes referred to by the Latin “Anosognosia”. At the time, Mom acted suspicious of “going to a doctor”, and I assured her she was to see a Specialist in Old People, because, at age over 90, “You now qualify!”, like it was a treat. The nurse, weaving it into a cheery, “How you doing?”-conversation, gave her a version of the Cognitive Screen; many questions she did remarkably well: e.g. she could spell “WORLD” backwards. But, she did not know whether it was morning or afternoon, or what season or month it was, what city she was in (living in that same city since 1970). Yet, then, while resisting any physical examination by the doctor, the doctor then talked to her about her work-history: Mom, “I was a person in a travel office; and I was very good at it.” (True; but note she’d quite lost the actual words “agent” or “agency”.) “And, I haven’t worked in travel for quite some time, so to do it again, I’d need to brush up on the modern procedures.” Indeed!, I nearly laughed, as knowing the season, date, and what city you’re in, are pretty basic to travel-planning! And, the doctor, in an aside, came to tell my sister and me, that “She has complete Lack-of-Insight; she doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with her!”. All that, being also incurable. So, we were to act in her interest, using our Powers of Attorney. Now 94, she can barely speak. (I am, her daughter, a retired physician in Canada, myself.)
Just think, and add “Anosognosia” to an already Narcissistic personality: Trump is less & less accurate, knows less and less about anything; and the “lack of self-awareness” of his brain disease, makes him not-know what-it-is that he doesn’t know, and leaves him even more certain that he’s always right, while speaking more & more gibberish. USA, you have a problem!
And watching him wander off in that last video show exactly how my mother-in-law who had Alzheimer’s was when we put her in an assisted living facility. Next, he will be having trouble swallowing.
We also watched my father-in-law go down hill quickly with Lewy Body Dementia. Crazy shit. And I sometimes feel he has that too.
I was very overweight. I snored heavily. I was diagnosed with sleep apnea. The soft tissue behind one's nose enlarges as you gain weght and when asleep blocks air flow. One wakes a clears the obstruction. I was waking up almost once a minute. I was never close to reaching REM sleep. I was sleep deprived. I was falling asleep in important meetings. I could hardly drive my commute. I could be in bed for eight hours 'sleeping' and wake up exhausted.
I got CPAP and finally got real sleep again.
But if you are trying to treat this physical problem with uppers it's going to be fruitless. Dangerous Don strikes again.

Spite. Pure and simple.
The same way he didn’t die of Covid. Access to very advanced and privileged med care.
Aye
The probable explanation in that he is the Anti Christ! And Adderall of course…
Well that’s depressing!
Because God doesn’t want him and the devil won’t have him
Death usually comes in threes, Tom, so be patient! LOL
Because he never worked a day in his life.
We can pray for the errant blood clot. Come on, little blood clot! 🩸
He has the best doctors OUR money can buy.

I recently lost about 60 lbs myself. Less back pain. Better mobility. Snoring gone. Sleep issues gone. It's amazing, right?
Why doesn't Mother Nature get off her lazy ass and RUN HER FUCKING COURSE???!!!
If I was at one of those kind of parties I’d most likely puke on him. There’s a good chance that I could splatter his ‘ho’ too.
I just can’t unsee that AI made the bottom half of his dress shirt a t shirt.
Why is more the question
Only days more, sayeth Yahweh
