    Well if you mean bragging about himself every time he speaks, or spewing lies every time he speaks, I agree. But, there are now more and more instances of him going off on bizarre and nonsensical tangents, and mixing up names, places, and events when he speaks about them. It's not hard to see that something is off now, unless you choose to ignore the signs.

    You are reading waaay to much into my comment.

    Edit:
    My grandpa smoked 2 packs of Camal unfiltered a day knocked back with a 12er of bud long necks. He Lived to 93.

    My Grandma was a tea totaler and kicked the bucket at 72.

    Some folks are just wired differently

    Well that's exactly my point. Saying Queen Elizabeth lived to be 96 means nothing. She was obviously more physically and mentally fit at 90 and 91 than Trump was at 79, and is now at 80.

    The reason I mentioned the Queen is because someone had equated the bruising on his hand as a death nail for some reason.

    I honestly do not how you can make such a comparison other than an eye test.
    No fact other than your personal observations.

    Trumps maladies whatever they are, are being heavily scrutinized.
    Wish the same folks on here saw what they see in the Donald, during President Biden's decline.

    I'm not trying to refute you or be inflammatory, but none of us knows what is really going on if anything.

    What I did not add is the fact that my grandfather walked around with that heater in his mouth while pushing a colostomy bag and wearing a robe with a hole cut in the side.
    Good times. Let that picture sink in

    The bandage on his hand is the least of my worries. It's the obvious state of mental and physical decline in the past year. Biden obviously should have left office his last year. I don't disagree, but he wasn't abusing his authority to the type of extents Trump is doing. Trump's hiccups, forgetfulness, and bouts of babbling nonsense, are one thing, but there are deeper concerns that trouble me most. Forgetfulness and having trouble walking a straight line is one thing, but complete and utter lies and non-stop spewing of his distorted reality of what's really going on isn't. It's getting worse by the month, and he has a dangerously sick and twisted mindset, that's far more dangerous that anyone should feel comfortable with in my eyes.

    I get what you are saying.
    He has always been a liar and as you say he is declining. It's a bad combination for sure.

    But regardless of any of us think, nothing will be done about it sad but true.

    Healthy living is only good to prepare you for the health schit-storm if and when it arrives. Healthy living does in no way prevent the health schit-storms. Have seen this with loved ones; the healthy ones can usually survive cancer or disease when it shows up.

    Trump has largely avoided a health schit-storm. Perfectly wonderful and otherwise healthy athletes can get nasty cancers in their 30's. The universe does not seem to GAF.

    Trump is someone is who his entire life has not made much sense. He is not smart. He is not educated. He is just a world class BSer.

    Given that he has never made sense, it is really hard to figure out if he is now making less sense or not.

    I know this has touched your family directly, and disaster can strike any individual, terrible luck and circumstances happen all the time.

    That being said I'd have to respectfully disagree with the statement that healthy living in no way prevents health crisis, there's a lot of good data showing simple things like not being obese can significantly reduce risks for schit storms, or at least delay them until later. For the crowd, again disaster can and eventually will strike any individual.

    Again, not necessarily true.
    See my grandpa example.

    Now, I'm not saying that is a great way to live your life, and I myself keep a very low-fat higher protein and fiber diet.

    My Irish wife eats no vegetables or fruit that I have witnessed in over 20 years, other than peppers and onions on her pizza.
    Her idea of the perfect meal is over cooked NY Strip with a baked potato swimming in Kerrygold butter
    You know how many prescriptions she has......... NONE.

    I eat vegetables with every meal excluding breakfast. I pound fruit, oatmeal and yogurt for breakfast. I avoid carbs as much as I can.
    You know how many prescriptions I am on............ 4

    Im on meds for:
    Thyroid
    Triglycerides
    High blood pressure
    Diabetes.

    All 4 of those are genetically predisposed from my parents.
    Thanks mom and dad.
    Im very active for a 58-year-old man. My only vices are a stiff Tito's and Cranberry seltzer on occasion and a little hippie lettuce to take the edge off.

    Mary Jane
    Cheeba
    Ganga.

    I have to do it like that because some prude asss moderator thinks typing mar1juana on this talk board will re-boot the rapture and doom us all to eternal purgatory.

    he drank a 12pk/day? impressive.

    My old man was a triathlete, olympic-level swimmer, plus ran, and biked, and an avid tennis player. he drank wine daily, but rarely to excess, and ate a healthy, low carb diet. he died at 62 from lukemia.

    mom, on the other hand, abused many substances, including alcohol and prescription drugs, never exercised, drank Diet Rite Cola constantly...she passed earlier this year at the age of 93.

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Yeah, fair enough. No guarantees though.

    300 million sure provides lots of anecdotal data for whatever we want to believe in health outcomes. Sometimes, when planning for retirement, the uncertainties give me a headache and I consider taking up smoking, or heroin, to simplify things a bit. :D:eek:

    Yeah I’m a bit weary of the “drinking a Kale smoothie a day reduces X risk by 50%” thing, but the data on exercise, cigarette use etc seems a bit more robust. But certainly zero guarantees, anybody can find hell.

    I know for someone experiencing it directly, all the data can go eat **** at that point. I’m sorry man.

    From Dave’s special in SanFran decades ago
