Where's the trump god?

Could Trump Have Had a Heart Attack?

Sorry for the sensational headline, but my god the way the media is treating his disappearance compared to the way they treating Biden’s mental health is startling.

If Biden vanished for 10 days, all the speculation would be about his physical and mental health. But, with Trump, first he gets plaudits for laying low to keep the attention on Biden’s poor debate. Now, the media is saying he’s hitting back.

But, Trump has hardly been seen in 10 days. What illness is he nursing? Did he have a stroke, a heart attack, or Covid again? What are they hiding? Why is he getting such a free pass?

Everyone knows that Trump doesn’t sit back. He’s never done that. And, he certainly wouldn’t do it when questions are starting to be raised. But, still, he’s in hiding.

There is a very good chance that Donald Trump is ill, and that story is being buried until he gets well. What in the world is going on that the news media did not seriously explore this, and challenge Trump to prove otherwise?

Well, I'm old enough to be eligible for Medicare next year. I know it sucks to get older, but I workout/exercise/bike/hike most of the days each week.

I've been Type 1 diabetic since mid 20's. That sucks, believe me 20+ before there were good monitoring tools (i.e. Dexcom CGM). I'm very disciplined, monitor myself religiously, exercise, good diet, and tend to have very few colds, if any. I didn't OD on any cough meds either in college; and drank moderately as I was ensuring I had the grades to go to grad school.

That all said, we'll see how this very fascinating mix of 50 year + elderly politician matches up with a businessman, and once President. Going to be very interesting, though we aren't certain yet how it all matches up.
