OK. Let's have this out.

The IMPOTUS looks like a centaur with his hind quarters cut off. He stands, leaning forward, with that gut sticking out and his chest puffed up at all times. Why is this? DU has been debating this issue for a couple of days now. I want your opinion.



I will let you know my opinion in advance. Occam’s razor says that a corn cob suppository is the most likely answer.

I don't think the other things would cause such a noticeable effect. Besides, he has probably been wearing lifts for a while now, but the lean seems to be getting worse and worse.

While I don’t deny that dementia could cause that posture, you can’t deny that a corn cob suppository would have the same effect.

I truly think it's more of the "good blood" thing, you know, like he said about Henry Ford the other day - good guy that he was accepting that medal from the Nazis.

BUT, truth be known, the "good blood" is his own - and it certainly pre-dates any "Mayflower" or "Pilgrim" stuff - we're talking CRO-MAGNON MAN!!!!! Yeah, I know, he's not carrying a club now, but, well, Melania could answer that part, right?

I'm sure that's what it is - many people are saying that.........

I think there's a combination of things going to cause him to stand like that. Wearing lifts, and maybe a girdle. Probably has a full diaper, too. I'm sure there's the "power"/"get in your face" stance involved, as well. He is big on that kind of game. And, like I said, he has Lindsey Graham and others so far up his ass, they're probably battling for space. Got to be mighty uncomfortable. I'm with Noel Casler about the dementia thing. I don't think he has it. What people are attributing to dementia, is more likely caused by a lifetime of drug addiction. He's still using. He still has enough wits about him to come up with shitty stuff to pull on a constant basis, and you wouldn't see that with someone with dementia.

the jacket hang looser in the front, giving the illusion of not being fat. Everything that’s supposed to be human, like literally being able to stand like a human, is a foreign concept with this guy. He knows he’s getting fat, and has stood in front of the mirror for hours, and posed... looking for a stance that is most beneficial to his appearance and this is what he cake up with. Make the jacket look roomy in front so it gives the illusion of thinness.

My own “corn cob suppository” theory gives him too much credit.

I like the corncob theory! However, it is incorrect. I have heard through mysterious back channels the truth about Donald Trump that will explain everything.

Trump IS a centuar from hell! A direct quote, “He was so bad, Satan himself spat out this creature in an attempt to save his home.” Evidently, the dark council is pleased by his absence. Hell is happy about the decision. If you have any further questions please call (666)666-6666!

If you need any further proof, just ask yourself why he paints his face orange! As a demon spawn sent to earth he must be dead. As such, he would have rotting flesh and nobody wants to see that (or him)! So, he uses the orange as a nice thick layer of bullshit to cover his face.

of course, why you'd want the front half of a centaur wandering around independently is kind of a mystery, but i gotta admit the way the front half of the centaur manages to look and act so much like a back half is straight-up amazing.

It's clear that during one of his "play time" sessions, years ago, someone substituted a pineapple for a corncob and it became stuck. This caused a back-up so that his secondary anus, below the nose, has been spewing shit all this time. The forward lean is an attempt to expel the pineapple, or, in the alternative, produce the proper level of anger to expel the shit evident when he speaks.
