Has he even been seen outside (other than being driven to Walter Reed)?

"I won't resign. I won't, I won't, I won't. You can't make me. You're not my mommy."
Next thing we know, he's on his way to Walter's.

(9,353 posts)Golf has been almost as important to him as Ivanka.
There must be something wrong.
Please, let it be terminal.

(7,431 posts)but there are likely symptoms of cardiac weaknesses that contribute to general fatigue. Trumpy may be experiencing pre-cursor symptoms of a heart attack. But, hey, I'm not a doctor and I'll never get within hundreds of miles of the nutbag.

(20,629 posts)A few replied to comment on crappy weather, but we all know damn well that for the past 3 winters, AF One had been shipping his bloated ass down to Mar-A-Gordo nearly every weekend once the weather took a turn for the worse in the D.C. area.

(42,700 posts)The absence of golf outings from the end of October until Thanksgiving is the norm.
I think the "golf-based" diagnosis is a stretch.
onenote
(42,700 posts)This is a bit of a stretch. He did his (losing) rally in Louisiana on Thursday. Flew back to DC and delivered remarks in public on Friday. Went to Walter Reed on Saturday.
As for golf, as in past years, he played up locally up until late October and then didn't play again until he went to Florida for Thanksgiving.
I think there is something up with his health, but his golfing schedule offers no support for that.
CatWoman
(79,298 posts)and I have mine.
onenote
(42,700 posts)He was seen in public prior to his emergency trip to Walter Reed.
The period of time since his last golf trip (in late October) is directly comparable to his golfing schedule in 2017 and 2018.
I don't believe for a minute that his trip to Walter Reed was part of his annual physical. But I suspect it was triggered by an acute crisis rather than some longstanding medical issue that has disabled him from appearing in public or playing golf in the days/weeks preceding the crisis.
CatWoman
(79,298 posts)the bottom line is the man has no problem spending our money to take extended golf outings, and I find it odd that he hasn't been on one in a while.
I never looked up the record/schedule, as like I said, he has no problem spending our money to take extended golf outings.
With all the lies that come out of this White House, even minute details are suspect --I suppose one can call that a fact, too.
On edit -- According to the TrumpGolfCount link above, his November 2018 schedule included plenty of gold.
onenote
(42,700 posts)The TrumpGolfCount link shows that in 2018, he last played golf locally in mid-October and didn't play again for five weeks until he went to Florida for Thanksgiving.

(42,700 posts)Some folks were questioning when he'd last been seen in public prior to Saturday. Well, Thursday and Friday would be the answer.
Some folks were suggesting his golf schedule was an indication of a health issue. Well, his schedule this year is, so far, no different than it was at this time of year in 2017 and 2018.
Not speculation. Informed judgment.

(19,060 posts)And the press has been told he won't be seen today.
My guess is he had a mild heart issue and will rest for a few days. If his White Supremacy rally in 8 days gets delayed or canceled, then we will know it was a more serious issue.
