Is Trump okay?

Ya, he works harder and better than almost all men half his age. This is a good place to point out that "Are you OK, I am really worried about you!" is a fairly common tactic of internet trolls and RL manipulative blow-hards, , especially in Lefty Circles.

Yes, because no one on the right tried to tag Hillary Clinton as being "ill" during the campaign. lol
 
I'm less worried about his physical health, than his mental.

He always was impetuous and lacking in sense, particularly in matters of ego. The Presidency will magnify this by magnitudes. I'm sure we'll see some cracks in him as the pressures mount.

I don't like the guy, but we're stuck with him. So my hope is he either gets better, or cracks enough to get impeached. I don't like Pence's policies much better, but I feel more positive about his competence, demeanor, and mental stability.

And I would argue that's a common tactic of a GOP Presidential candidate.

He probably just needs some sleep and some time off at Camp David.

Not sure that will help his crazy talk but it might help him physically.

I mean, the guy IS up all hours of the night playing on the internet and Tweeting stuff.

He tends to burn his candle at both ends.

I recall a Jimmy Buffett song with the lyrics that went something like this:

"And now I must confess.
I could use the rest.
I can't run at this pace very long.
And, yes, it's quite insane.
I think it hurts my brain.
But it cleans me out and then I can go on."

Get some sleep Dictator Trump. The work will still be here when you wake up.

Compared to Obama's presidency and Hillary's campaign, Trump looks like he's going at a frenetic pace just by getting up in the morning.

Pence would switch sides and so the battle against the Elite would be lost. Hopefully Trump can go the distance.

He can go the distance, if he does not become immensely unpopular.

If he maintains reasonable popularity within the GOP rank & file, then he's good I think.

Trump does not exercise and does not eat either fruits or veggies. On the campaign his diet was mostly fast food. It's also reported that he spends a great deal of time eating snacks: Lays chips, Doritos and Vienna Fingers.

I've heard that his behavior is rooted in his belief that genetics are a near sole determinant of quality and length of lifespan, rather than lifestyle choices.

Personally I don't think he'll make the next 4 years because I think he'll piss off the Republicans enough to get impeached.

However there's a pretty significant chance that he just ends up having a heart attack.

I had never heard of them before, so I looked 'em up.

Well there it is.....thanks. They don't...good families don't let their children grow up to be snowflakes ; -)
 
What's is this......like the 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000th thread on how whiny snowflakes can't cope with real leadership that's actually good for America?
 
While I do agree it's a bit embarrassing to be represented to the rest of the world by a pasty, fat tub of goo with ridiculous implants, there is a bright side...
At least with his failing health... the women around him don't have to worry as much that he'll try to grab them by the *****.
 
yay another hyper partisan thread from the peanut gallery

Well, they won't have to worry about anything more than his hands at least.
 
Dunno. Ask me again in six months, time will tell.



It's a tough job. He may just now be realizing how tough it is... and I doubt many Presidents do realize that until they're in it. He's hitting the rough parts early because he's controversial and is trying to do a lot quickly, instead of spending a few months settling in like most.

He decided correctly that if he did not start swinging on day one that the establishment would sabotage the Rebellion at every chance and wait out for the next election in hopes of a better for them situation. This being the same establishment that did Obama in when he came to town talking about hope and change. The odds of winning are not great, might as well give it everything you have and hope for a miracle, the only way to win is to change the game.

"Go Big or Go Home" has always been Trumps motto, he is exactly the right guy at the right time.

LMAO. Yeah, those BMI things had me obese at 6-2 185 about 12 years ago. So, I don't put a lot of weight, pardon the pun, behind those BMI things.
He's 70, fat, and running around like a young man. Good for him. God bless him. :)

You misunderstand.

Stats of 6'2" and 185 is 23.5 BMI which is a healthy weight and a few points away from the "overweight" category.

Trump claims** to be 6'3" and 236 which puts him not in the overweight category but "obese".

**Obama's 6'1" and this is him standing next to Trump: https://img.washingtonpost.com/rf/i...05736509-4318.jpg?uuid=Rrz9yt9iEeaRjJnt48jK-g.

i believe you are mistaken ... using the data you provided your BMI is 23.8. which is found to be a normal BMI
see for yourself:

i don't see very many obese people living in retirement homes ... and i live in an area where people live to eat instead of eat to live

but for our sake - and especially because pence is his backup - i hope he defies the odds and maintains excellent health
 
I'm guessing the stress is getting to him. I imagine being president isn't nearly as fun as running for president.

I have noticed as of late, Trump is appearing somewhat disheveled looking as if he hasn't slept in weeks. He is also acting like a paranoid Chicken Little too. His mannerisms, voice tones, are all over the board.

Has the rigors of the campaign trail finally caught up with him? Is the job pressure ****ing with his head?

He's not looking, acting or thinking very healthy at all.

I don't like the guy but I do wish for him good health. I hope he's okay.

Anybody else notice that? :confused:

Yeah, he looks like a blurry movie these days. He hasn't even gotten started on any of the hard stuff yet; right now he's exercising "his new power": like the kid who plays with the box instead of the toy. He's just beginning to feel everybody else's power and I think you're right- it's gettin to 'em. Today he backed away from his chest pounding on meeting with the supreme court and has decided that his executive order should be rewritten. He'll be toast pretty soon.

Trump is a 70 year old man whose BMI defines him as obese.

The BMI?

The heck with that...a camera can tell you he is FAT.

And he apparently eats a LOT of junk food...so his blood pressure and cholesterol are probably through the roof as well.

Analysis: Billionaire Trump is a junk-food junkie - Entertainment & Life - providencejournal.com - Providence, RI

He is probably a prime candidate for a heart attack or a stroke.


Considering the excellent example the last two presidents set (both GW Bush and Obama were apparently VERY healthy) - both H Clinton and Trump are pathetic physical specimens considering the incredibly important job they were desperately trying for.

President Trump is a whole lot better than okay.
The man is a veritable dynamo, an overzealous, overachiever
and the beneficiary is the American public.
(Granted, many are unaware and unworthy)

The presidency takes a huuge toll on every president. The presidency is too big because the federal is doing too many things the states should do. Then you have every one complaining regardless of what you do, and you get blamed for things that are congresses fault just got good measure!
 
No trump is clearly not OK. Anybody that would even consider heightening the trade war with an additional $50B in tariffs on China is not OK...is clearly a sick man. The history on tariffs is all bad...all of it for everybody. Its not more complicated than that. Don't muddy the issue with trade deficit nonsense because it is nonsense nor trying to resolve the IP issue this way. The history of tariffs is all bad and often catastrophically bad.
