Donald Trump’s tiredness, recent MRI and hand bruise suggest he may be taking medication to treat Alzheimer’s disease, according to a “curious” California Democrat.

Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove, D-Calif., tweeted that Trump is showing signs he’s taking the Alzheimer’s disease drug Leqembi.

“The Alzheimer’s drug Leqembi:- Is administered through an infusion (for example, through the hand)- Can cause swelling, bleeding, or fluid leakage in the brain, requiring regular MRIs- Can cause tiredness,” Kamlager-Dove tweeted along with a picture of Trump’s hand bruise. “Curious.”

    Anyone remember the DS9 episode where they killed the Vorta but then fake puppeteered him with neural stimulators?

    The Majority report have been following this for a few weeks.

    Apparently the medication needs to be taken monthly, which would coincide with his monthly “annual” physicals at the hospital.

    They’ve all downloaded period tracker apps to confirm the theory and they predicted his latest visit very effectively.

    Also you can see how sharp he is at the start of the cycle vs the end. Once they tell you what day it’s on, it’s even more obvious how he’s going to be handling things.

    Remember when the Republicans wouldn’t shut up about their theory that the Biden administration was covering up Bidens supposed health problems? You know, exactly like they’re doing for Trump now?

      Every complaint is projection. They’re terrified of being called out on their bullshit, but simultaneously forgetful of the evil things they said during any democratic president’s term.

    From what I remember it wasn’t even proven this drug works. There were some data suggesting it might have some positive effects and since there is no known treatment for Alzheimer’s it was approved to “give patients a chance”.

      I work with the Alzheimer’s drugs somewhat frequently, and there are ~15 patients I know of on Leqembi specifically. It’s not meant to reverse or stop anything, but rather slow progression – which for Alzheimer’s can be a miracle. You’re not going to get on the med or even be evaluated for Alzheimer’s unless you’re showing some deficits though, and you absolutely need evidence of plaque build-up.

        Yes but I though even evidence that it’s slowing anything down was at best very weak?

        Also, is there any medicine that makes the patients look more awake/cheerful? It looks like Trump is sleepy and irritated almost all the time but then he suddenly becomes very active and his mood improves like during the Mamdani meeting.

    He will last another 6 - 10 years. That fat fuck has health care not even a billionaire can dream of. Miller and the rest will prop him up ala Weekend At Bernie’s, but he will be just cognizant enough to ramble through a speech and sign an order.

    No he’s not. He is a god. And a pedophile. And a rapist. But a god. Look at his orange manly non makeup wearing self. 8’9” tall. -7% body fat. The energy of 1884 12 year olds….not the ones he raped. This man deserves a made up peace prize from one of the most corrupt organizations on the planet.

      Don’t be misled, the d’s don’t actually want to improve the lives of Americans. They just say that they do. Ie: Bernie 2016

        I think it is more that the propaganda works, and the U.S. as a whole is further right than Bernie do to it.

        I mean shit, Trump just won an election by telling the people he wants to raise taxes, and the propaganda convinced half the nation that he wanted to lower taxes.

        Not 1 Republican voter was saying they wanted taxes higher, but so many of them were tricked into thinking he was lowering them.

        The rest of the population is also affected, just to other degrees

          Propaganda or racism/sexism/xenophobia etc? The propaganda supports those ideologies, and people value that over their best self interest.
