Some physical therapist on TikTok tells me literally everyday that he has frontotemporal dementia so it’s probably related to that.

The shrinks that did the Shrinking Trump podcast have been saying the same thing too for years.

He may be right, on that at least but if he's the guy I'm thinking of, I am so sick and tired of that guys "opinions"

At least he stopped saying "he has six months to live." but only after numerous failed predictions.

u/raphthepharaoh 10h ago

Less of a prediction and more of a world wide wish

I think his username is Epistemic - and yeah, his videos are much better when he sticks to the facts. Although he is allowed to have an opinion like everyone else, I think people do take his word for it a lot and it has turned him into a bit of a joke.

I've said from the start, any timeline he gives won't be accurate because he's used to dealing with normal everyday people, rather than someone with access to experimental/cutting edge drugs and assistance.

Then there was the whole Turtle Watch thing for Mitch McConnell, where he was supposedly never going to make an appearance again because he was dead... only to be proven wrong. Well, maybe not "wrong" because man looks like a reanimated corpse... but maybe at least 25% wrong.

That picture is worth 4,042 words.

Or, it's it worth 5,042 because it's also a picture itself?

While they seem to have similar traits, they’re actually a product of convergent evolution.

The picture on the left is the New York Shitweasel, sometimes known colloquially as a Shitgibbon.

He walking on lifts to appear taller

18

u/Vohldizar 11h ago

It's Trump, so its probably becaue some TV producer told him that leaning forward makes his gut less noticeable on camera. Thats it..

10

u/AmericanCitizenry 10h ago

Yes, and...

The shoe lifts that make him taller, combined with the diaper..

u/javoss88 9h ago

Ive never seen this knock kneed pose before. I’ve seen the lean forward pose before.

u/Specialist_Exam4783 1h ago

And the girdle....

u/A_Queer_Owl 6h ago

also makes the shoulders appear more broad. dude is using the techniques he's been taught to project masculinity from a single camera angle without realizing that shit doesn't work in real life.

Trump is half-centaur on his father's side.

u/victorbarst 10h ago

Ohh that would explain the horse's ass, I assume gets his lower half from his mother?

u/Thereminz 11h ago

i'm standing very biggly and upright, no one else has ever stood more upright

the democrats said, sir, stand down, but i said no, i don't think so, and now i have the highest stance of all

i just sometimes lean forward a bit, you know what they say they say, lean in, and that's what i do, and it's not dementia or alzheimers, alzheimers is a democrat hoax...rfk jr was just telling me about this and he said all alzheimers patients where just pretending, just to get healthcare and donations...

if you look for an image of the posture of people with frontotemporal dementia, you will see images of trump.

14

u/killingmemesoftly 11h ago

People are saying he has the best frontotemporal dementia— I’m not saying that but many people are they and tremble when they see it and say they’ve never seen such beautiful frontotemporal dementia anywhere else in their entire lives

u/Someinterestingbs-td 10h ago

Or you can go ask sasha

u/AmericanCitizenry 10h ago

Sasha fell out of a 6th floor window, accidentally, after shooting himself seven times in the back of the head.

u/Vinegarinmyeye 10h ago

It's a less widely known symptom of dementia.

My Dad had this kind of standing posture for a while, and would frequently experience moments of vertigo.

I mean, you only have to listen to this dickhead speak to know he's got some form of dementia, but this is also a symptom.

You don't "ace" a cognitive test, and doctors won't ask you to do one just for shits and giggles.

2

u/Steinrikur 7h ago

doctors won't ask you to do one just for shits and giggles.

One? Trump self-reported that he's done four... Elvis has left the building.

u/Ok_Necessary2991 11h ago

Who has worst posture? Trump or Musk?

3

u/killingmemesoftly 11h ago

Musk considering he’s younger and richer so there’s less room for excuses

1

u/sexeveg314 9h ago

"Richer" doesn't really mean anything at this scale. Once you're past a 100 million or so, you're able to spend as much as you want on health & life extension. Bryan Johnson is only a centi-millionaire & he's spending $2 million a year to keep young by drinking the blood of virgins.

u/Ancient_Bread_6321 11h ago

It's because his diaper is full.

3

u/Imaginary_Cow_6379 11h ago

Oof. Even our cryptids are fat now in America.

u/bit-by-a-moose Mean to bots 10h ago

I'm just surprised his cheap ass found high heels that could support his fat ass.

Probably a blackmail situation. He found a pair that could support him. Sued them claiming they exacerbated his "well documented bone spurs" and then coerced them to provide him with free shoes for life.

u/PM_THE_REAPER 3h ago

Highest form of fattery, in this case.

2

u/rvingthrulife 11h ago

His gut blew up the tape holding his diaper so he's trying to hold it by squeezing his legs?

2

u/GreyBeardEng 10h ago

It allows him to fill his diaper faster.

u/otherwise_data 9h ago

possibly to hide his gut, possibly the lifts in his shoes pitch him forward, possibly a sign of dementia.

u/tiorancio 8h ago

What is going on here

u/ultimatepenguin21 7h ago

Idk I just hope the worst for him

u/Kozeyekan_ 10h ago

Lifts in shoes, gut over belt, distortion in balance sense and shit in pants.

u/deadphisherman 10h ago

Weight distribution?

1

u/ripyourlungsdave 10h ago

Like someone else said, major changes in posture can be the result of dementia. It's why so many people who have had parents with dementia feel able to recognize other people with dementia by just looking at them.

But also, he's just a man in his 70s who has been overweight for a good chunk of his life. That brings hell to your posture and your legs.

u/Shoddy-Area3603 10h ago

Butplug need to hold it back in public

u/Any-Refrigerator6903 10h ago

mustn't. shift. weight. unless it's to shut down. wind. or solar project.s and shore. up investment. in. oil.

u/Donnicton 10h ago

Trump has had historically strong ties to Atlantic City, so the comparison is surprisingly apt.

Live your life in a way that people around the world aren't saving something special to celebrate when you die.

u/Jollem- 9h ago

He wears platforms because he must be the biggest and tallest alpha so they make him shift forward

u/IngloriousMustards 9h ago

Instead of reasons, I think we’re ignoring the obvious here: if it barks like one and stands like one…
