The fly that landed on vice president Mike Pence’s well-manicured hair last night during the debate with Sen. Kamala Harris was a perfect metaphor for the Republican Party. The fly smelled bullshit, then quickly landed on what appeared to be a decomposing body: the GOP. Donald J. Trump is the Republican party now, and takey backsies are not permitted.
The 74-year-old obese president of the United States that has questioned Democratic nominee Joe Biden’s mental acuity phoned in to do an interview on Fox Business with Maria Bartiromo hosting the sad spectacle of a show. Trump said he’s “extremely young,” and that, along with his perfect physical fitness, helped him overcome COVID-19, even though he’s still being treated for the coronavirus.
No, really. Watch:
“I’m back because I’m a perfect physician specimen, and I’m extremely young,” Donald Trump

“physician specimen”
Did he just call himself a cadaver? Or a stool sample?

Oh gracious. I honestly thought this was a joke. The President is deeply unwell…on multiple levels. And if anyone truly loved him, they would intervene and get him the help he so deeply needs.

Now, some may say that Trump was joking, but if Biden had said that, the president’s team would have been all up in that. And, Trump — who is a raging narcissist — isn’t known for self-deprecating humor. Trump allegedly weighs 244 pounds, and that falls into the obese category.
And this is the same president that tweeted out an edited photo of himself as the fictional boxer Rocky Balboa last year — shirtless. So, I’m going to go with he’s not joking and his 74-year-old ass thinks he is young and vibrant.
