3. Ataxia?
Sun Mar 10, 2019, 05:50 PM
Mar 2019

"Ataxia describes a lack of muscle control or coordination of voluntary movements, such as walking or picking up objects. A sign of an underlying condition, ataxia can affect various movements, creating difficulties with speech, eye movement and swallowing.

Persistent ataxia usually results from damage to the part of your brain that controls muscle coordination (cerebellum). Many conditions can cause ataxia, including alcohol abuse, certain medications, stroke, tumor, cerebral palsy, brain degeneration and multiple sclerosis. Inherited defective genes also can cause the condition."

Hadn't heard of this condition but it falls in line with that water glass he had to use two hands to pick up. I think he has as many issues physcially as he does mentally - well that's a tough bar to reach.

"Ataxia refers to conditions that affect coordination or body movements in an individual. Chronic use of a number of different drugs may result in the development of ataxia. Of course, neurological conditions, such as stroke and dementia that may be related to substance abuse, can also result in ataxia."

Could also be a result of minor stroke and/or dementia.

contents are in need of "airing"? He looks less obese when he spreads his legs?

His ego is on display. I have been overweight and underweight, it does not define me. He must wake up every day to "mirror, mirror on the wall" delusions of how handsome and "rich" he is. "I can grab them by the...." Sick, psychopath in our WH.

with his hands hanging straight down at his sides and crossing his feet, these are more signs of cognitive brain disease.

Did he just pivot in that direction to shout something about fake news?

If that is a still image taken when he had just pivoted, then his legs might just be in that momentary contortion.

He was swinging his right foot out as he walked. I noticed it because my ex, a polio survivor, did the same thing. Had poor control of his foot, and would swing it out with each step.

We don't ever see him walk at a normal gait, do we? He lumbers, usually slowly.

23. The Senator Larry Craig wide stance.
Sun Mar 10, 2019, 07:29 PM

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_Craig_scandal

At 1216 hours, Craig tapped his right foot. I recognized this as a signal used by persons wishing to engage in lewd conduct. Craig tapped his toes several times and moves his foot closer to my foot. ... The presence of others did not seem to deter Craig as he moved his right foot so that it touched the side of my left foot which was within my stall area. Craig then proceeded to swipe his left hand under the stall divider several times, with the palm of his hand facing upward.[5]

Parkinson's. The way he walks, slurs his words, difficulty turning his head and folding his arms.

Looks like he is in danger of falling in fact. Balance can be benign and age related or a symptom of many diseases. I bet dementia.

44. He's dry-practicing skiing down a bunny slope?
Sun Mar 10, 2019, 11:28 PM
Mar 2019

I mean, that's the classic beginner's "snowplow" stance.

Courtesy definition in this context: "bunny slope" is the general term for a short, gentle incline where beginner skiers can practice and get the hang of it.
