I'm trying to remember who that is ......but with is extremely extra miracle that has brought the nation together like never before ......with choirs of heavenly angels -- big, strong angels, with tears flowing down their soft white cheeks -- singing, "To Sir, With Love" with three extra verses about the president actually being the Second Coming ......... I think Epstein was either the lead singer in the acid rock group The Bay City Rollers, or maybe he discovered something about math. But I can'r remember, and do not want to waste time thinking about anything but the miracle of God speaking directly to America.

Labia is very swollen, Is he sexually excited the staged attempt went off so well and now even Iran will feel bad for him and cave on the WAR?
Jeffrey who? That’s so yesterday.
Doctor Jesus is invincible.
Some say.
All next weeks news will not be on war, gas or Epstein. Where is Bush’s Mission Accomplished banner? This scam was his most Successful.

but he looks like an absolute freakshow, every day, to the rest of the world (I mean physically, his behavior is another albeit parallel matter of similar description).

The fact that he goes out in public looking like that is an indicator that nobody around him cares enough about him as a person to stop him from looking like that -- an appearance by any metric, even his own unreasonable ones, which ought to be embarrassing. Granted, it would be an enormous and painful and thankless task to undertake. But still.

I heard both her and Melania were left behind as they took away president. Melania hid until table until SS came back for her. The lady you talked about followed them crawling.

At that point, someone's shouting "Stay down!", but the whole scene's so chaotic from the video angle I've seen that it's hard to figure out what's going on.

In a closed room, with only invited guests and servers?
This isn't a public street. This isn't an outdoor rally.

Either it's a setup or Trump's Secret Service is utterly incompetent.
Then again, they let just about anyone into Mar a Lago.

their makeup on their own, at least until they trust us. Most of them are dealing with various levels of cognitive decline along with the challenges of age - poor mobility, stiff joints, poor eyesight, unsteady hands. The outcomes are easily imaginable and predictable.

He’s stated many times before he does his own face painting. This is what it looks like when he does it himself now.

The difference here is, he’s not a sweet but proud little grandma trying to settle into a new environment and the next chapter of her life. He’s a narcissistic megalomaniac with nuclear codes the and the largest levers of power on the planet.

Oh, and dementia. He’s got that too.

In these pictures they look angry, afterward, they look joyful, like they're laughing at the rubes.
