Is trump hiding a serious medical condition?

    So we know that Trump was rushed to walter reed hospital last november. It has never been explained why. We also know that he has not completed his annual medical. Again, there is no explanation given for this. We also have video of trump in public doing erratic and uncontrolled movements. is it possible that Trump has Frontotemporal dementia or something similar and is tryng to hide it from the world?

    Symptoms of Frontotemporal dementia include:

    Increasingly inappropriate social behavior
    Loss of empathy and other interpersonal skills, such as having sensitivity to another's feelings
    Lack of judgment
    Loss of inhibition
    Lack of interest (apathy), which can be mistaken for depression
    Repetitive compulsive behavior, such as tapping, clapping or smacking lips
    A decline in personal hygiene
    Changes in eating habits, usually overeating or developing a preference for sweets and carbohydrates
    Eating inedible objects
    Compulsively wanting to put things in the mouth

    i think trump fits nearly all of those.

    It can also cause movement issues such as:

    Tremor
    Rigidity
    Muscle spasms
    Poor coordination
    Difficulty swallowing
    Muscle weakness
    Inappropriate laughing or crying

    Take a look at the short videos below and you see examples of some of those. What is the White House hiding from us?

    It would be unusual for a 73 year old with his lifestyle NOT to have a medical condition.

    However there is nothing at all in those clips to suggest anything very sinister.

    For a person who is under a camera 16 hours a day, it would be incredibly hard to mask something like what is suggested in the OP.

    so the

    Tremor
    Rigidity
    Muscle spasms
    Poor coordination

    he displays are perfectly normal? and you're right, it would be incredibly hard to hide which is why it has been caught on video.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,485 ✭✭✭KevRossi


    He's a bit of a nasty individual, a spoilt child who always got his way in life. This is mixed in with some form of dementia. My Dad had dementia and Parkinson's, there's a fair few similarities between him and Trump if you want to find them ( I mean the dementia, not the Parkinson's).

    On the other hand he's been behaving irrationally for some time and I think if he had pro dementia we would have seen it a lot more.

    Hard to call really.

    Continuously.....

    If that's the only proof of FTD in a guy who's under a camera for the majority of the last four years then its very scant proof in the extreme.

    As I've said, it works be unusual for a 73 year old not to have issues.
    Rigidity? These press conferences can go well over an hour in which he's mainly standing for the duration. Tremors, loads of people get tremors for various reasons.... We even have a saying for it "someone walked on my grave"


    For FTD to be apparent he would have to be very slow about doing menial tasks such as eating, signing his name, drinking from a cup.

    The guy still goes golfing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,187 ✭✭✭FVP3


    Looks to me like he feel asleep on his feet in that clip. He clearly has reduced brain capacity, or is more inarticulate, compared to his middle age self though. Most people have some reduction in brain plasticity as they age but their vocabulary isn't affected by that. It doesnt look like full dementia.

    He looks pretty good to me health-wise for 73 years old. I have seen 73 years old who can barely walk at that age.

    Biden in a worse state than Trump he constantly forgetting things live on air. If they have a one and one debate, Trump will take him apart piece by piece. He did it to Clinton and she's a smart cookie.

    I watched the video. What so weird about it? He just turned his head to look at Fauci and the reporters during the conference. And shuffled his hand, and?

    I don't see any of things you mentioned in the post?

    The second video, an odd jerk movement occurred. You speculating Trump has has Frontotemporal dementia from just watching a few seconds of a video? I would need to see this happening more often to take it seriously. Trump known to have ADHD and may explain the nervous ticks with the hands?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,203 ✭✭✭partyguinness


    As mentioned he is 73 plus he is completely outside his comfort zone.

    Remember he is not a career politican as such and probably struggles internally with 'acting Presidential'.

    Running for President has just a game for him and he was not really supposed to win.

    What I am really saying is that he his completely clueless.

    You did, and Trump doesn't have them. Or at least you haven't convinced neutrals on this thread that he has them.

    Is Trump hiding a serious medical condition?

    No. He is a grade 1 asshole. It is very obvious.

    Trump is probably hiding the fact that he has the coronavirus.

    So we could in theory have two senile old duffers with sketchy sexual histories running for prez.
    Were they really the best candidates that the two parties could come up with?


    Why not impose an upper age limit for prez candidates? 65 maybe.

    Not the smoothest ever lifting, of a perhaps heavy glass glasswear.
    Has a lot to deal with focus on: rampant looters running amock, volatile global stocks, chii-nya (might have another covid on the cards), media games and so on...

    But do let us know when he starts bleeding from the aul eyes with a hemorrhage, live on CNN, that might be an un-normal concern.

    Couldn't walk down a ramp either. He called it very steep and slippery. It was no steeper than any ramp approved by the Americans with Disabilities Act.

    Meanwhile you can find videos of Joe Biden out jogging with people even this year. You wouldn't catch Trump jogging, no sir. Must be murder for his handlers to get him in the private gym.

    He is supposed to be the fittest president ever, are you telling me he has difficulty lifting a glass of water because the glass may be "heavy"?

    It's made from glass not gold :rolleyes:

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,988 ✭✭✭enno99


    Now honestly look at the examples given and see if they correlate to maybe a 73 yr old with
    a shoulder problem maybe golfing injury must have
    plenty or wear and tear on his joints at this stage

    It must have been hot in Tulsa recently, he was drinking (single handed) a fair few glasses of water:

    He had a week at home to practice, and he only did it for show. He looked very depressed after that rally, I would say he isn't very happy with the videos especially now he can't deny using fake tan anymore :pac:

    Not long ago however, some were claiming he couldn't (see video/image).

    Guess he'll have to take up jugging 3 glasses live on CNN, in order to silence such random conspiracy theories.
    Just realised old Joe is 77, that's some big age to be running for office.

    we have multiple videos of him requiring 2 hands to drink a glass of water. and at least i dont rely on ancient books to cook up a conspiracy theory.

    Or choosing to.
    E.g. If giving folks in the pub a summary of your holiday adventures, you might well grab a pint with two hands, while in full flow about the bungee jump, scuba and croc wrestling adventures.

    77, that's some ago isn't it. 78 actually come November.

    Imagine someone in their 80's (2022) in control of the big red button.

    Take it no one seen Joe walking out on stage last week? It was like something out of thunderbirds.

    If there was strings involved, you'd have to credit the stage hands pulling off such a multi-handed feat, likely suspended from a platform high above :pac:

    Why do Americans love voting for really old men ! I know you have to be a certain age to run for president but around Obama’s age is ideal I reckon

    ..If wearing a suit n' tie, not a good look, even if just plain water.

    Hilary must have been the most obese candidate of recent times surely: 5 foot nothing, pear shaped and a couple of episodes of fainting/shaking.

    Donny is 1.9meters, above Barry O' and Pence.
    Reckon his youngster Baron will be 9'2" by the time he's finished growing.

    Anyway looks like this thread has lost the run of itself, if grabbing a glass of water has become the new benchmark of life expectantcy.
