A detail I suggest we keep an eye on as the daily photos and videos of Trump continue to roll up:

I have seen two different photos with someone laying a hand on Trump. One was Pam Bondi's hand. She had her hand on his back, which, at first I thought was in consolation. In retrospect, I realized that this was the wrong take. When I saw the second photo with what appears to be a woman guiding Trump from behind, it came to me, that perhaps Trump gets confused often and he needs to be gently guided. Since it has been feminine hands, I almost missed the connection. So I suggest we keep watching to see if it happens again, and if it does, how often it occurs.

I went through four months of vestibular therapy for balance issues earlier this year, & it was helpful & fascinating. My issues were different but a lot of patients had to practice standing on squishy or uneven surfaces.

Your post sent me to the dictionary, thanks for the perspective and hope you are .... balanced well.

Several weeks ago at a Trump news conference, Jeanine Pirro was directly behind him She looked rather worried and apprehensive and hardly took her eyes off him for even a split second. I thought they were afraid of what he was going to say and deviate from script, but this adds a new filter.

blood thinners, diruetics, statin drugs and the like -- all of which affect his balance, equilibrium and ability to ambulate. The Turdenstein's idiocy and dementia affects the Monster's ability to speak coherently and logically.

They didn't give Biden a break for having a tough schedule prior to a debate, so Trump hasn't earned any compassion from us.

is that Biden went on, in spite of having the flu. Biden was ill, he should have been in bed recovering, but he chose to go on because it was important.

Considering his long-running habit in which "ever accusation is a confession," it's interesting that he was squawking about "elder abuse" in relation to Biden. Maybe he was telling us something more?
