He sounds like he's on speed. By the end of this day he'll have been up for nearly 24 hrs and then he's only breaking for 3 hours or so before making two election day appearances in CO and NM. He's 72 years old with a dicey medical history.

I just don't buy that he's doing this without chemical assistance.

1. I thought about that too
I'm not 72, but I'm in much better shape than McCain and I think I would drop by now.

4. I don't know how common PEDs are in politics.
But without further information, I'll give politicians the benefit of the doubt and assume he's working on caffeine and adrenaline.

8. Neuro-1. It's like Red Bull in a pill.
He's on Neuro 1. He's gonna crash and possibly have a heart attack from all that taurine & caffeine.

9. Keep in mind, almost all his rallies are/were airport hangers....
He probably sleeps during the flights.

12. I seriously doubt that there's anyone who could keep up
a hectic campaign like this without relying on "chemical help".

16. I'm guessing animatronics and advanced pharmacology

The "Six-Million Dollar Man" was twenty years ago. Obviously, technology has advanced since then.

Just watch for a small trickle of blood from his mouth as he gives his concession speech.
