staff/enablers are super concerned about his image with less than a month until the election, and so *they* want him to appear hale and hearty

My money's on this. The entire campaign from here on out is basically going to be Weekend At Bernie's.*

*Only not that name because it's the GOP

Wasn't there another less successful movie with the same concept that came out around the same time? I feel like there was

When I get IV Dexamethasone, I usually don't sleep and then get very hungry for a couple of days. If Trump was on that long-term...oy.

They're like, "Oh, he'll stay in the residence." Right. I'm sure that dude will suddenly start worrying about other people's health.

They're like, "Oh, he'll stay in the residence."

He didn't even fucking stay in the hospital over the weekend! There's no way he'll stay in the residence.

I saw that Junior wanted to stage an intervention ... the other "kids" weren't having it.

So... does this steroid have any interactions with adderall?

Timelies all!

Today was the first day Mr. S had classes in his school building. Apparently it went well.

Me too.

I believe that he actually has it, if only because I can't imagine the medical staff at Walter Reed being in on a huge scam. I think Trump's baseline grasp on reality was poor to begin with, and he has the steroid crazies now,* and he doesn't want to appear weak in the press (or possibly his adult children and other staff/enablers are super concerned about his image with less than a month until the election, and so *they* want him to appear hale and hearty).

This.

I know he's maybe the biggest liar any of us have ever experienced (or will ever, God willing), but there are something like two dozen people infected now in the Trump cluster.

Also, the Secret Service agents in his little fascist parade yesterday were wearing face shields, as well as the kind of N95 masks that have exhalation valves (the point being, those are only protective to the wearer, and there is no need to protect Trump from Covid if he already has it). Also, their masks appeared to be taped to their faces.

To go all Zapruder film for a moment, go to this photo at Getty Images, click on the + to expand it, and scroll to the right to see the clear tape on the agent's face, on his cheekbone. [link]

Plus, in the video Trump released right before he went into Walter Reed, he looked like a man somewhat chastened by fear. Of course that fear is gone now, because of the steroids, but I saw it. Emotionally, I responded to it (momentarily) like I would to any scared human being. I felt sorry for him.

And he really is acting like Trump on steroids.

He didn't even fucking stay in the hospital over the weekend! There's no way he'll stay in the residence.

I am more concerned about residence staff (butlers, housekeepers, etc) than the administration staff, so I don't even know how to feel about that. The Atlantic ran a piece on them. [link]

Glen Beck tweeted something about how he didn't vote for Trump last time but Trump has proved himself and he will vote for him this time and who is with me??

I ended up tangling with a bunch of people , many of whom were trolls that I didn't respond to just reported. I didn't try to change anyone's minds really but any time someone insulted me I ranked them and told them to be best! Be creative!

I probably shouldn't have done it and just reported the troll accounts who were responding to him
