Should we really be pitting edema here?
(Post shortened)
One suspects that the White House has informed Karoline Leavitt and all other spokespeople that they are to only pronounce “venous” as “VANE-us,” not “VEE-nus,” so that it does not rhyme with, and be misheard as, “penis.”
(rimshot) Never thought of that until now.
We can strike pregnancy off the list, I think.
Here’s the Blue Man Group performing Donna Summer’s “I Feel Love”, with Venus Hum (AKA Annette Strean) on vocals.
That’s been true for most of us since the 1980s.
I think so. He’s clearly had this condition for a while. They’re mentioning it now to try to get MAGA minds off Epstein.
As to whether it’s actually Congestive Heart Failure (instead of the claimed Chronic Venous Insufficiency)–note that Trump and his minions have NEVER been honest about his health. So it wouldn’t be surprising if they’re “admitting to” a less-serious-sounding ailment.
I’ve always been doubtful about his COVID diagnosis and treatment.
I prescribe bleach injections. My sketchy MD is in the mail, I’m sure.
Go ahead, start the treatment, STAT.
(See, I have already started using doctor speak)
Looks like this rules out his third term planned to commence with bombs bursting in air in 2029.
I cannot believe JD Vance - who may have some time as president - has 1/10 the charisma of Nixon yet the Dems don’t really have an opponent. I’m not asking for JFK but if this guy gets in…
If only there were another embarrassing-to-mention body part that rhymed with “VANE-us”…
True, but he definitely doesn’t have any insufficiency there…
WHAT??
Somebody covered up the president’s medical issue? 
Yeah, yeah. We all know penis rhymes with venous.
I imagine at his age, Trump has many insufficiencies.
Some he’s had since age 3, notwithstanding.
What is the line from The Lion in Winter? that Eleanor says about one of Henry’s more prominent mistresses?
“I prayed for her to drop, and danced a bit when she did. But no, I didn’t kill her.”
That sums up my feelings.
Unless, of course, I should get diagnosed with one of those Hollywood terminal illnesses, where I appear to be, and function as though, in perfect health for five months and three weeks, then am on my deathbed for a week, while family gather round, and make hilarious wisecracks to relieve the tension. I’m hiring Tina Fey to write my deathbed scene.
Anyway, I have a plan for those five months and three weeks.
And then we have President Mike Johnson, I think.
Unfortunately a book about this Presidential cover-up will do nothing at all to please the corporate owner of CNN. (So, no book.)
I know, right?
I, for one, was shocked! SHOCKED, I tell you!
I read the book referred to, and I couldn’t believe it! Wilson’s wife Edith pretty much ran things after Wilson had a stroke in 1919-- which means she was running things in 1920, when women’s suffrage was finally ratified.
And that’s just for starters.
“Both legs amputated, and still 6’3” - how much healthier can you get?"
At least amputation will take care of his “bone spurs”!
I saw some picture today where his hands looked tiny but with really fat sausage fingers.
I figured it was altered, but it was hilarious.
Gave me a giggle.
