Donald Trump posting a week-old photo has heightened scrutiny of his health.
Amid continued concerns about his physical well-being, Trump posted an image of himself playing golf with a former football coach.
But, given the photo was taken a week ago, people raised concerns about a potential attempt to hoodwink the public about the true state of the president’s condition.
His last few posts use em dashes, there is no way he wrote those. He is probably feeding promts into AI and posting that or someone is doing that on his behalf.
Every time he posts something on his little Twitter imitation the media says something like, “Trump proves he’s alive by posting that…”
Now I’m not a conspiracy theorist and frankly I doubt Trump is sick, but this drives me nuts. A post on social media proves nothing. Anyone could have written that. Now we’ve got two cases of golf photos being released and treated by the media as definitive, when one is absolutely old and the other was also rumored to be outdated.
Have there been any public appearances since he “resurfaced “? If there had been I’m sure I would’ve read about them.
Again, I don’t buy the theory that he is dead or dying, but something is weird. He normally never stays out of the spotlight.
The running theory is he’s has a stroke. He was struggling to walk in a straight line when he met Putin
He’s 80 odd a lives on a diet of mcdonalds and coke and “works” a stressful job
His blood pressure is likely though the roof
These, “we assure you the president is alive” posts sure are raising a lot of questions already answered by the, “we assure you the president is alive” posts …
I mean, he’s obviously gotten plastic surgery at various times in the past. That shit needs constant retouching.
If I were Joe Biden, I would ride a bike in front of the White House every fucking day.
Let’s be 100% honest, Biden’s health probably hasn’t improved since he lost to the fascist oligarch, he probably can’t handle daily cardio of that extent.
Plus, it’s not safe for him with so many protests and gestapo roaming DC.
Fine, let Bernie do it
Yeah, I’m pretty sure Biden’s getting chemo now. I imagine he’s not up to doing that, but it’s a pretty funny idea…
Is “Trump’s health is failing” the new “Trump will be arrested any day now”?
Not really; Trump dying is guaranteed to happen, while Trump getting arrested is basically guaranteed not to
Can’t run away from time.
Just enjoy the lack of bullshit in the news while he isn’t tweeting
Gotta hope for something - it’s the only justice we’ll get
This final season of America is getting interesting. 🍿
Optimistic of you to think this nightmare will ever end
Americans would do well to remember that the Roman Republic didn’t fall overnight, and it wasn’t just one person seizing power, but three different people over the course of 55 years.
The first, Sulla, retired from the dictatorship as promised but the republic never recovered from his actions or constititional reforms. Two generations and a few civil wars later the republic was finally dead in all but name.
I know right? They’re gonna renew it until it is no longer profitable
I’m so down with this! 🍺🍝
lololol
Donald Trump should simply make a public appearance to show that everything is just fine.
Let’s hear about his health and wellness directly from him.
Also, release the Epstein files.
I think he should prove how macho manly he really is by taking up that one guy on his offer to walk around a city…Baltimore, was it?
Also, he should go bike-riding with Biden to really show who is boss!
And play fetch with Commander.
Just watch out for Kristi Noem
Hmmm? It’s almost like electing 70/80 year olds to the most influential and powerful offices in the world is a bad idea.
You know… Retirement age in America is like 62 most places. Just saying.
I know. He was not medically fit to be president even in 2016.
Ageist
What’s actually ageist is these fossils (or do you prefer “old fucks”?) consistently conspiring to keep younger people (I’m talking anyone sub-55) from assuming the reins of power.
Let’s be fair: the man was never medically fit, in general.
You know… Retirement age in America is like 62 most places. Just saying.
And some are even forced or incentivised
He’s either dead, or deflecting interest in the Epstein files.
RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES!
I’m starting to think he had a stroke. If he is quiet the next week, shits gonna get crazy with speculation.
I’d love for this to be real, but Newsweek is absolute trash right now. If they are right about something it’s probably by accident.
I suspect he’s genuinely unwell. The man is, above all else, a complete and utter attention whore and this is a rumor that could be immediately dispelled by him doing a loud, showy, public spectacle. That should be like Chistmas for him; it’s basically the universe giving him PERMISSION to do one of those fascism pep rallies he’s so fond of, and yet he hasn’t gone for it. Why?
I don’t think he’s actually dead but I do think he’s in a bad way.
He might have had some routine surgery, probably not uncommon for someone his age, but his vanity won’t allow himself to appear weak
My guess is he had another stroke, and he is hoping his speech will recover to the point that it’s not obvious.
When he got COVID the first time he made an appearance while he could barely stand and breathe.

100% this. That and his deep and abiding narcissism. His sycophants keep saying he’s the most accessible and transparent POTUS ever, but it’s just because the guy is absolutely THIRSTY to be in front of cameras at all times.
If something was not going on, he’d be racing to be in front of those cameras already.
I mean, would we even be able to tell it apart from his usual rambling?
Wouldn’t take much
What’s to disbelieve?
You think the picture wasn’t taken a week ago?
No, I dont believe he’e on death’s door. He will probably live to be 100, because life isn’t fair.
Well, frankly him dying now, having avoided all real consequences his entire miserable life, having contributed nothing positive to planet earth, lying and raping his way all the way up to the highest office in the contry, is also not fair.
Life isn’t fair, Your Highness. Anyone who says otherwise is selling something.
Get used to disappointment? (Wrong scene, I know)
No, I dont believe he’e on death’s door
Where did you see the article say that?
I don’t understand any of your complaints, you might as well be complaining a gorilla can’t play in the NFL…
Did you read the title?
Donald Trump Posting Week-Old Photo Raises Eyebrows Amid Health Speculation
…
To you, that headline, and a headline that says “trump is on death’s door”…
Those, those are the same to you? You read both and think they say the same thing?
Don’t get me wrong, Newsweek is shit, but that’s not the problem here and the problem is much more concerning.
To be fair, they’re talking about a major medical episode in the article. That does mean life-threatening to me.
Of course they mean the same thing, just to differing degrees. What else do you think the first headline is referring to?
Of course they mean the same thing,
…
They don’t bud…
That’s just, how language works
You fucker, you made me give them a click
Travis Akers, a retired U.S. Navy intelligence officer wrote: “I’m not a conspiracy theory guy, but if you’re fighting off increasing rumors that you may have suffered a major medical episode and to disprove that rumor and provide proof of life, you post a picture of allegedly playing golf with Jon Gruden today, it would be beneficial to post one that wasn’t from August 23rd.”
This is what passes for “Journalism” at Newsweek these days …
A quote from a retired intelligencer pointing out the picture is a week old and lazy/bad propaganda…
Yes, that is literally what we describe with the word “journalism”…
This is literally like if Faux News said the sun was coming up tomorrow, so you scamper off to prepare for 1,000 days of darkness and the return of Baphomet.
Just because so one lies 90% of the time doesn’t mean 100% of what they say is the opposite of truth.
You get that, right?
Because I’m about to quit trying.
I’m about to quit trying.
Literally?
You probably think that the local news reading social media posts on air is “journalism” too…
It can be, depending on the subject matter, timing etc. Reddit had a big hand in the Boston Marathon bombers capture.
The self-assigned “bias meter” at the bottom of the page is trash.
It defaults to hard left until you vote.
Still garbage, but not in the way people seem to think.
That’s worse than I imagined.
So?
I mean I’m no politician but I post old stuff all the time without any note that it’s old.
The fact that he’s a politician that is physically incapable of not talking to the press is kind of a big part of the equation. He basically disappears for a week, and old pics are thrown out to show he’s still alive and well? Something happened.
There’s only so many Big Macs you can stuff into an 80+ year old body before something gives out.
I thought they just came straight out the otherside into the diaper?
I’ve heard he’s been spotted recently using a Cinco®️ Food Tube™️.
Arteries clog, kill the hog
Sounds like King Gizzard lyrics
It’s presumably a distraction technique. But I’ll shed zero tears if it’s true
I, for one, will have a party.
I’ll shed tears of joy.
Tears of joy and relief. Don’t forget the relief
I don’t know about relief. The people that put him there and did all the project 2025 shit are still at the helm. It’s hard to feel relief when the criminals run DOJ, NSA, CIA, DOD, etc…
I had to scroll way too far to see someone say this.
I’m gonna mix my joy tears with a literal shower of champagne.
Yep and you can’t see his face, it’s from far away, and if it is him he looks like he had a stroke. That picture proves nothing. The man who loves to speak to reporters and have camera time suddenly is camera shy, it’s suspicious.
Article is from 2019
That’s the point dawg
Updated picture below. Turn Sepia to 100% for max effect.
It’s a bit grainy, that’s Bill Murray, right?
