(25,270 posts)conscience let him run for another term? Isn't he damaged merchandise? Or are they content with Pence taking over if Trump gets worse or kicks the bucket?
Mr.Bill
(24,318 posts)well, he's still walking better than FDR. Their base would buy that.

(2,606 posts)He stands with his butt way out, and has to hinge up to stay upright. He also has forward head posture.
Good thing is, it is a solid bet that he is in constant pain.

(10,667 posts)That is not normal motor control.
Motor control is a complex process involving the coordinated contraction of muscles due to the transmission of impulses sent from the motor cortex to it's motor units. It is the process of initiating, directing, and grading purposeful voluntary movement (physiopedia)

(7,434 posts)Each mini-stroke takes its toll. They are cumulative, and they set the stage for larger strokes.
Trump is indeed having problems with motor control on his right side. When a stroke gets massive enough to affect his facial muscles, he'll have to resign. His vanity won't take it.

(4,169 posts)Don't forget the two handed bottle of water and drinking glasses.
There was a video yesterday or the day before where he lurched to the right side.

(5,403 posts)Of the several causes, stroke is definitely on the list.

(23,278 posts)difficulty in constructing coherent sentences; inability to remember words of more than a couple of syllables--yeah, he's had some mental damage as well.

(9,897 posts)Two things:
1) IF it was a stroke, goddamn it why could it not have been much worse? I mean seriously we lost Luke Perry and John Singleton to strokes in the last 18 months, why the fuck does that monster get to live through it?
and
2) IF it was a stroke, even a small one, I really hope he is suffering excruciating pain!

SergeStorms
(19,204 posts)now I'm going to gave to start watching him so I can see the blessed event? Nah...........just can't do it. If he strokes out on national TV they'll have instant replays, right? Slo-mo, fast forward, repeat, the actual moment when his eyes roll back into his head.
I'm a bad man, but Donald Trump created me.

(3,056 posts)There's definitely something there, because his right arm doesn't move naturally either. Must have hit the left brain, which could also explain his speech issues and (lack of) vocabulary.
niyad
(113,546 posts)it is definitely getting worse. May he stroke out on national tv.
WinstonSmith4740
(3,056 posts)But I'm with you...I'd like to see him stroke out on live TV in the middle of one of his rants. Cult 45 will turn him into a martyr, and somehow blame Obama.

(10,476 posts)It's a 5-6 second loop of him...walking?
WinstonSmith4740
(3,056 posts)There's a definite drag and turn out in the right foot as he brings it forward...also a slight sweep out. His right arm isn't moving naturally with his gait. After my husband's stroke, his physical therapist warned how that "sweep" can develop if he slacked on his therapy, or didn't do the exercises. It was probably mild, but there's something there.
Tarc
(10,476 posts)who is too used to Big Macs and sitting in an EZ chair in front of Fox News. Think the stroke stuff is reading way too much into things.
Native
(5,943 posts)My mother had LOTS of strokes. Minis, maxis...it got to the point where we could even diagnose ourselves as to whether we even needed to bother calling her doc.
3Hotdogs
(12,405 posts)The only exercise he gets is taking the wrapper off Big Macs.
WinstonSmith4740
(3,056 posts)But I'm sure he does it bigly and powerfully so that must count for something.

I claim self-defense for using this argument.
I claim self-defense for every questionable action I ever take, or have ever taken in the past.
It's my brand new, get out of jail free card. I get way more than $200 - gofundme assures me of that.
I think I will start a gofundme page and get away with murder, at everyone else's expense.
Cha-Ching!
