#TRUMPstroke begins trending after Donald Trump makes insanely idiotic excuse for his collapsing health
Has Donald Trump had a stroke? Is he suffering from a neurological disease? No one knows for sure. But he’s now displaying symptoms of severe loss of physical and cognitive abilities. His right arm doesn’t work correctly. He struggles mightily to walk. He looks and sounds half dead. So what’s really going on?
Some observers have pointed out that Trump’s symptoms are consistent with Parkinson’s disease. Others have asked if Trump has suffered a stroke. In fact so many people think he’s had a stroke, the hashtag #TRUMPstroke has begun trending. After all, it would explain why Trump is failing on a physical and cognitive level at the same time.
Normally we wouldn’t be okay with this kind of speculation about someone’s health. But because Trump has been lying to us about why he was taken to Walter Reed Medical Center, and his crackpot doctors have been releasing obviously falsified medical reports, we have a right to ask questions.
And now that Donald Trump is posting absurd tweets tonight about how his disturbing physical behavior today was all because the ramp on the stage was too steep, it justifies being even more skeptical about what’s going on here. Whatever is wrong with Trump’s health, it may or may not be disqualifying, depending on what it is. But his refusal to disclose such a severe health condition is disqualifying. It’s time for the 25th Amendment.
