Donald Trump has always equated sickness with weakness, as if it were a person’s own fault that they contracted an airborne disease. He also famously avoids people living with disabilities, from encouraging his brother, Fred Trump III, to let his severely disabled son dierather than cover his medical expenses to refusing to be seen with military veterans who were multiple amputees.
When Donald Trump was first running for president 11 years ago, he would often use Hillary Clinton’s health against her as a talking point. If the woman so much as coughed, he would tweet that she had a variety of illnesses that her team was covering up. Hillary developed pneumonia in the final months of the campaign in 2016, and MAGA used the footage of her looking weak at a 9/11 memorial ceremony as part of their viciously deplorable attacks against her.
Four years later, Trump used the same tactics against former Vice President Joe Biden, which MAGA was more than happy to parrot. They ignored all of Trump’s glaring health issues and leaned into the ageism of it all, even though Joe Biden was a spry 77 compared to Trump’s shambolic 74. MAGA mocked Dark Brandon for falling off a bike when Trump’s never been on one. They also created a completely false narrative about Joe Biden “sniffing children” and ruthlessly attacked Hunter Biden’s struggle with his sobriety.
Anyway, since every accusation is a confession with Trump, it’s worth asking how long he’s been facing his own slate of medical issues and mental deficits. We still don’t have any real information about his multiple visits to Walter Reed Hospital this year, or why he needs 22 DOCTORS if he’s so healthy.
Trump, who recently celebrated turning 80 by falling asleep at his UFC Slapfest, has been deteriorating rapidly over the last few months. Aside from not being able to stay awake whenever he leaves his White House Bunker Safe Space (examples: the Knicks game where he got booed, the super late July 4th fireworks display he delayed on purpose because it was hot, Tuesday’s meeting with Erdogan), Trump had a disastrous meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyon Wednesday at the NATO summit. From referring to Japan as an “Islamic Republic”to addressing Zelensky as “President Putin,” it was yet another astonishing display of just how far gone Trump really is.
Joe Biden would never.
It’s glaringly obvious: Republicans are involved in multiple Trump cover-ups at this point. The same Trumpocrites who spent a lot of time and energy demanding that Joe Biden resign the presidency because he was *checks notes* old and successful are fully ignoring Trump’s far worse health issues. They’re also completely fine with him vandalizing Washington, DC, on America’s 250th birthday as a gift to his Daddy Vladdy, and then there’s that whole pesky Epstein Files cover-up, including that secret Situation Room meeting led by JD “Vladimir Futon” Vance A YEAR AGO.
But wait, there’s even more!
The GOP is scrambling to keep the public believing that Sen. “Moscow” Mitch McConnell is going to make a miraculous medical recovery after being MIA for a solid three weeks. There’s now an active online campaign involving multiple Trump suck-ups claiming they’ve “spoken to McConnell” on the phone, yet they can’t prove it. What’s extra weird about not telling the American public the truth about McConnell’s health is that they all claim to have chatted with McConnell for “20 minutes.”
If Scott Jennings is lying (just kidding, of course he is, because he’s a highly paid propaganda swill merchant, which is me holding back because I’m not allowed to use any swear words here), he should be fired from CNN immediately. Of course, he should’ve been fired already, but he’s also being paid by fellow propaganda swill merchant David Ellison.
Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear is demanding the answers Republicans refuse to give because getting answers from Republicans has always been close to impossible.
This scandal goes beyond what any American should accept from our elected officials. We’ve been watching this GOP lie and obfuscate for Trump and McConnell for far too long, and the lingering question remains as to WHY they’ve let it get this bad.
Trump has even broken his own Iran ceasefire again because people have gone back to talking about the Epstein Files. I’ve repeatedly said that nobody should lose their lives because Trump’s entire illegitimate regime is involved in the biggest cover-up conspiracy in American political history. The party that screamed over Barack Obama wearing a tan suit is enabling an 80-year-old convicted felon, adjudicated rapist Epstein Bestie who’s been owned by Putin since 1987. What we’re witnessing now is what Trump would’ve done in 2020 if there hadn’t been a pandemic that forced everyone to vote by mail from home.
Since we’ll never get the truth about Trump’s health from his medical team, speculation has run rampant online. Credible medical and healthcare experts have suggested Trump has suffered multiple strokes, which have left him with residual weakness on his right side, along with lingering aphasia that makes him incapable of completing sentences.
The American public is entitled to know what’s going on with the president’s health. The Biden Administration was fully transparent and released health reports every year of his presidency. We’ve never once gotten a real answer from a real doctor who hasn’t been paid to lie for Trump. We’ve also never gotten a medical report from the doctor Trump allegedly saw in Butler, Pennsylvania, after allegedly getting shot and then miraculously regenerating an ear.
By the time you read this, we may have an answer about Mitch McConnell. But we may never get any real answers about Donald Trump’s health or why the Republicans don’t care about all of the things that are wrong with him.
That’s the kind of weakness Democrats need to use against Republicans in the midterms.
