One of these days we’ll get a Like button.
There’s a Joni Mitchel song in there somewhere.
They paved the Rose Garden and put up a parking lot
With a gold hotel, Trump Steaks, and a MAGA hot spot
I beg your pardon
I never promised you the rose garden
Just because I can, see
I’m ripping out the best of the old
When you take, you gotta grift
So give and give me or go, whoa-whoa-whoa
Let’s go dancin’
On what used to be the rose garden
Bugger. I knew it was too good to be true, but my heart leaped up at this headline.
Trump speech in Kentucky interrupted by medical incident; Dr. Oz assists | AP News
To paraphrase a common saying… we all get the doctors we deserve.
I hope the good doctor pulls out all the strings, bells and whistles.
Just no interns, medical students or vaguely interested bystanders involved, because that bus is full of fuel and ready to run someone over.
And all the stops, depending on the organ.
More subtle signs that the President is unwell.
A note to anyone who clicks on that link, it’s going to the Onion.
He died doing what he loved best. Clutching his heart and begging God for more time.
Eta: that was a response to the onion link.
I think that’s pretty clear if you click the link.
From Onion’s lips to God’s ears.
This is in no way a scientific-grade piece of evidence, but: in last night’s episode of Last Week Tonight, John Oliver devoted the main segment to J. D. Vance.
A reasonable inference: Oliver thinks there may shortly be a reason to focus on Vance (and the harm he may do to the nation and world).
That link might not work. This one should, I think:
The Grim Reaper gets closer:

Susie Wiles, Trump’s Chief of Staff, has breast cancer.
That’s dark for one whose avatar is a kitten 
My first reaction is sympathy, swiftly followed by wondering how she really feels about having her medical issues broadcast to the country, closely followed by trying to figure how this is a bonus to their cause. What’s the angle? Cynical, I know, but that’s where are.
Getting back to OP, I happened to see one of his blatherings today, though I’m not sure where. Maybe a Kennedy Center thing? He looked absolutely ill. Like the kind of thing that makeup can’t fix. Labored breathing and weak voice, and just a “look” that I’ve seen before, same as others here have mentioned. It’s freaky how he can look so different from event to event. He’s like Jerry Seinfeld’s two face girlfriend.
After recent discussions about him not being as near the end as some had hoped, I sadly, bitterly, made peace with it. Then I see a bloated, discolored, elderly man who’s fighting like hell, but losing the battle, and I get my hopes up again. I can’t stay on this emotional rollercoaster.
Anchorage is a big city. Gander, Newfoundland isn’t, and they took in more people than lived in the region, and Got Things Done.
I had the day off, and slept in, waking up in time for a 9:45AM (Central time) appointment with a plastic surgeon, to have a cyst removed from my scalp. Both towers had been hit and the first tower had already collapsed when I woke up, and I considered cancelling the appointment but decided to keep it, and a few blocks from the doctor’s office, Tom Brokaw said, “The second tower has collapsed.”
When I saw him again 15 years later to have the same thing done, in a different location, he didn’t remember me, even when I told him when I had been there before. They say doctors don’t remember their successes, I guess.
My older niece, the one who’s now a Fulbright Scholar, was 23 months old, and she knew SOMETHING bad was going on.
For her? or the cancer?
Is he dead yet? No?

He will die “in two weeks”.
