      The cringe is palpable. These might be bigots but even then I feel sorry for whoever has to be next to such a clusterfuck in person. For a moment. The I remember these people want to elect him and I feel better about their suffering. May it open their fucking eyes.

        That’s gracious of you.

        I’m leaning at a right angle toward schadenfreude, watching a redneck at a barbecue who’s been pouring gasoline on his charcoal briquettes for the past 8 years about to spark his lighter.

      He doesn’t look good. Had someone in Cardiology yesterday, out of nowhere, shoot a frown at me and whisper, what do you think about the way trump is looking?

      Like if you lifted his pants legs, my 7 is there’s bilateral pitting edema under there. Kind of like watching Nimoy in those final roles, seeing the COPD across that barrel chest, and wondering how far out of frame the oxygen tank actually is. It’s morbid to some, I’m sure, and that’s fair, but I am worried.

      I’m convinced that the makeup is the same, he’s just become that much paler beneath the makeup.

          At base I’m not happy about anyone’s medical misfortunes, self inflicted or otherwise.

          You could also read it as his health is worrisome. You could also read it as his base’s reaction would be worrisome.

          Don’t assume puppies and rainbows. Remember Scalia.

          Trump dying now would be an unthinkable tragedy. He would forever be a martyr and we would never be rid of MAGA. FFS, there would be Trump statues everywhere. Oh, and think about all the conspiracies involving liberals killing him.

          He has to live through this election and lose ignominiously. Then he has my permission to die.

            That’s a definite worry, but there is no one that could replace him that I can tell, right now. He is a complete fascist, evil bastard, but he knows how to charm his people. The other fascists that currently have power don’t know how (thankfully).
