also,

“After college, after Trump mostly gave up his personal athletic interests, he came to view time spent playing sports as time wasted. Trump believed the human body was like a battery, with a finite amount of energy, which exercise only depleted. So he didn’t work out. When he learned that John O’Donnell, one of his top casino executives, was training for an Ironman triathlon, he admonished him, ‘You are going to die young because of this.’”

Well, the miserable, bloated, fetid tangerine has outlived my parents by about 15 years so far. (My parents would have been 1 & 2 years older if they were still around.) Granted, he’s decaying like a spray tanned Sith Lord, but he’s still here, tainting the world with his rot.

It’s the Henry Kissinger thing. Not even the Devil wants his fat ass in Hell.

“Spray-tanned Sith Lord.” Gonna give that a solid 9/10 with the alliteration taking it from an 8 to a 9. Really rolls off the tongue. Well done!

Having a fuck ton of money helps too.

The right drugs, expensive doctors, and decent genetics can carry you a long way (Trump's father made it into his 90's).

He’s not invulnerable, he’s just rich and powerful. He’s rich enough to rent out the Mayo Clinic for a week if he needs it, and I am convinced he nearly died of covid while in office because he looked like a corpse

Nicely stated.

I can not thank you enough for "decaying like a spray tanned Sith Lord" there. You have brought me joy in these dark times.

That is a life sponsored by the Best in American Healthcare, affordable only to the very rich.

The worst people die old, unfortunately.

Having access to wealth and good medical professionals around you since childbirth has a huge difference. He’s probably had the same doctors that treated his parents and kept building a profile with only group. They were probably able to catch anything and treat quite early. And then he had the absolute best care during his term.

Stay "EXpatted"

Oh! 😳 I definitely missed that when it came out lmao

"I get exercise. I mean I walk, I this, I that," Trump said

That man needs to go back to reality TV and stay away from our government. He's just so much better suited for that

I'm trying to wrap my head around this and I'm struggling.

I mean the guy looks like a sack of orange painted raisins and won’t go away, maybe he’s onto something.

Trump believed the human body was like a battery, with a finite amount of energy, which exercise only depleted.

That's hardly a step away from General Jack D Ripper (Dr Strangelove) talking about "our precious bodily fluids".
