In reply to the discussion: (UPDATED) Is this the worst photo of Chump we've ever seen? [View all]moniss
(8,574 posts)someone here from DU who is a doctor or nurse could tell us about when a person has the whites of their eyes turn from white to mostly pink/red. It is very,very noticeable in many pictures now how his hair is greatly thinning. I think they had him jacked up to the moon in Pennsylvania and coming down at his age is way more than a one day ride. When he is in a room with other people now in other pictures notice how he is standing. Like he's coming apart and half slouching. When he's seated like at his "cabinet" meeting he's listing to one side after awhile with his head cocked to the side.
His "confusion" at various times about what is happening around him and where he is to go or what he's doing is quite evident. So he gets to a microphone and does his canned bit about how great he is and how bad Democrats are and then wanders into nonsense until someone in his group, maybe Miller, gives him the "cut" sign and the "performer" in him knows to shut up and it's over. People who work with people of age will be able to start picking out the "compensation" moves etc. Things like looking in one direction for a long time and then down at the floor before starting to walk in that direction. Sometimes they'll start to always have a "staffer" right behind them or next to them but back a little to "guide" when it's time to move and what direction. That loaded down, damaged heart is going to give way one of these days if they keep jacking him up to trot him out.
If the photo is legit it also looks like liver spots are ganging up on his face. All of his supposed exercise is getting out of a golf cart to hit a swing and then getting back in the cart. It's better than nothing but not by much. There's no way they can declare him "fit" and "healthy" in the manner they've done. He's been looking worse and worse in even just the last weeks and he was no prize even before that. He looks like a guy, given his age, who would be seeing his doctor every 2 weeks to listen to his heart, take a blood pressure, maybe labs and keep upping his level of water pill to try and get him less bloated. Knowing him, his temper and his attitude he probably doesn't take his pills because they make urination an urgent matter several times after taking the water pill. If you take that first thing in the morning probably within a half hour or so you better be real close to the bathroom because "holding it" for awhile is not an option. That would anger him to have several of those every morning and especially if he drinks a couple of coffees or Diet Cokes. So he'll keep getting worse and they'll keep testing and he'll keep lying about taking his pills.
