It's highly doubtful he'll get past 82 and not be institutionalized, like Fred was.
If he's still alive.
Even dopey donnie can feel the Reaper catching up to him.
A life of decades of debauchery and drug abuse?
I doubt cankles are his worst issue.

And it helps to not convince yourself you know what's going to happen tomorrow or next year or 3 years from now. Getting to OMG we're totally fucked is exactly where they want you.

Yep. Tyrants fall. All of them, if you give it enough time. Fascism can never win a final victory, so long as people yearn to be free.

True, but that ‘and then’ will most likely contain an almost unbelievable amount of violence, so I think most people prefer not to think about that particular ’and then’ just yet.

Projecting strength and "overwhelming" force is part of authoritarian propaganda. It's meant to make anti-fascists give up and to persuade people "who don't pay much attention to politics" sit on the sidelines.

Yep. That's the situation my parents are in, and it may wind up being mine as well. It fucking sucks.

(One consolation is that my grandmother died before everything fully turned to shit. It would have broken her heart.)

It's like watching the prequel trilogy of Star Wars and Clone Wars, somehow not knowing about Rogue One or the original trilogy or the sequels, and just concluding that because the Empire won at the end of Episode 3 they just get to rule over the galaxy forever after

No no no see the credits roll at that point.

I have wondered for a long time if folks understand the extent to which what we think is happening or what will happen is colored by entertainment media vs. history. It’s really notable how people’s imaginations stop where credits would start.

As Tom Petty put it, “you can stand me up at the gates of hell but I won’t back down”. Furthermore, “No, I’ll stand my ground, won’t be turned around. And I’ll keep this world from dragging me down.” This is my anti-doomerism anthem!

My mom was born during the Blitz. Nazis were trying to kill her when she was a BABY. She's still here.

There's a particular kind of doomer on here who's like "and then SCOTUS will install him as president for a third term, and the military will back him up" as if that's the end of history.

Friend, there's still an "and then" after that.

If he wants to prove his head isn’t scrambled let’s see him do the clock test live. When my mom was diagnosed, and denying her diagnosis, this was the test that tripped her up every time. www.ohsu.edu/sites/defaul...

I also think he has CHF. I don't think it's "venous insufficiency". They lie about everything and if you listen to Noel Casler, he has snorted Adderall for years. He's abused his body and he's at the age now when it takes its toll. He has avoided accountability but he won't avoid this.

Trump probably likes MRIs because he gets to lie still while everything revolves around him.

Who else wishes WH reporters had enough solidarity to ask details about the MRI until they got an answer? Was it a closed or open machine? Was it the first MRI? Just asking about the experience could cause a rant exposing new threads of inquiry.

You get an MRI when your second cognitive test is worse than your first.
