There’s currently rumors, he had bruises on his hands, hasn’t been seen in public in the last few days and his schedule for the next few days has been cleared. It’s rumored that he even cancelled his golf session.

JD Vance said that trump is healthy but he’d be ready to take over if anything would happen.

Also the pentagon pizza place is busy.

    When Trump isn’t seen in public for days I don’t bother wondering why, it’s just a welcome break from him getting attention.

      It’s a nice break from all the BS headlines along the lines of “Trump says, Trump demands, Trump claims, Trump threatens…” et Al from news outlets who learned nothing in 2016.

    It’s the reverse and he’s off fucking some kids.

    Bonus post of a reddit user:

    spoiler

    [–]MartyrOfDespair 917 points 3 hours ago

    Bonus entries:

    He has no plans to make Labor Day about himself and is doing nothing for it. He is not using a federal holiday to jack off.

    It is currently 3:22am in Washington DC and he is not rage posting on social media, his favorite hobby at the normal time.

    Not only is he not rage posting in general, he has yet to have a public meltdown about these events.

    The posts on his social media have not been him in days. The language is off, and “he” hasn’t even used “I” in a bit.

    He’s not dead. If he died you could probably smell the body all the way to Seattle. It would smell like if you ground up hot dogs and put them in a jar for a year to ferment.

            Yeah that’s true. I just think Wikipedia is the worst source one can use to support an argument. So anything below that is basically just “trust me bro” to me.

              Once upon a time it was, but it’s pretty reliable now. It very clearly cites sources and has warnings for when things don’t have sources.

                It does cite sources, however, many times I have tried checking sources only to find lackluster support for the statements being made in Wikipedia.

                Just today I was looking at this page: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigaer_94

                It states, that the building in question was given to a Jewish organization, linking to 2 sources:

                1997 wurde das Haus an die Jewish Claims Conference übertragen[2][3]

                Looking at the sources, they just seem to claim that the building was once owned by a Jew. This explains why it might have been given to that organization, but it’s no proof for the statement being made.

                I found several things like this over the years. I’d say this is a good 10% of the sources I bother checking.

                Maybe German Wikipedia is worse somehow?

                All that being said, I do trust Wikipedia mostly. I’m just saying, it’s the bare minimum IMO.

                It’s not just reliable, it’s well sourced and has a consensus of perennial sources from news agencies that are well known by people who give a shit about truth to report facts down to the gravesite, and they clearly list organizations that have slid down the scale of integrity in order to colour corruptive, enshittifying tendrils accurately.

                It is no less than one of the largest open and collaborative human works of knowledge and truth from all stripes, colours and ideologies blended and distilled into neutral-as-possible articles that exist.

                This pizzint ad slop on the other hand is agitprop bullshit for gullible rubes; google popular times ratings of restaurants as a metric isn’t a clever lateral thinking rubric inferring calamity.

                People don’t rate shit and Joe the firefighter isn’t housing ‘za while saving people from cooking, let’s get real.

      Maybe I am out of the loop but why is a hematoma from a person who probably receives regular infusions and blood draws a big deal?

        It probably has something to do with Queen Elizabeth II who was photographed with significant bruising on her hand just two days before her death.

        Yeah, I had a mildly botched routine annual blood draw and it left a pretty significant hematoma for a while.

        Yes it means he has probably had blood draw or IV through the hand for something, but impossible to say if there anything significant to it just because it left behind a hematoma.

          In all reality at his age it’s probably just unavoidable due to scar tissue, shitty veins, and poor clotting but I know if I was the phlebotomist I would aim to go straight through the vein every time

      Eh. When Reagan was shot in public there was hemming and hawing about how to proceed, and this was only a year or two after Reagan had used dirty tricks on GHW Bush to win the primary. Bush would have leapt at the oath of office.

      Trump has a cult of personality that will probably assume any death in office is the result of foul play. It’s not impossible that Vance et al would spend a few days working on how to spin the issue to prevent a coup attempt by some MAGA nut jobs.

        There’s no way it’d be kept under wraps. This White House is leaky as hell. There’s pretty good chances of another journalist being invited to a Signal chat on the matter.

        GHW Bush was a far savvier political animal than Vance. He had a lot of experience by then. Vance only first held office in 2023, and he mostly wrote books and worked for investment firms before then.
