I'm guessing IBS (ulcerative colitis or Crohns)

Last edited Fri Apr 19, 2024, 06:33 PM - Edit history (1)

Is the reason Motherfucker is laying a chemical weapon in the courtroom.

On edit, this is why there needs to be consistency in who does the Presidential candidates physical exam. No private doctors, no contractors, no one pagers, a full exam similar to either a flight or military entrance physical conducted by a government physician.

5. I say this because his weight is well maintained...

An exacerbation would evoke weight loss, frequent uncontrolled urgency, explosive stools at times. He has had this lousy diet for years...thats why I doubt its crohns etc...

3. Long term drug abuse (especially amphetamine/cocaine) and dementia are frequent causes of fecal incontinence
Fri Apr 19, 2024, 04:53 PM
Apr 19

Some of those who worked with him on "The Apprentice" maintain he was fecal incontinent and wearing diapers even then--after years of cocaine, amphetamine, Adderall abuse. And he does have some symptoms of at least early dementia (possibly Frontotemporal Dementia)-- so this is not out of the question.

Could he also have inflammatory bowel syndrome (IBS)? Sure, but even with "Dr." Ronnie, that would have been hard not to have appeared or been addressed on any medical records.

9. Yes he has had fecal incontinence for years according to co-workers

on Trump's TV show.

Yes most likely due to his cocaine and adderall abuse.
And yes the obvious brain damage we see does not help.

I think it is more than IBS.

4. Pancreatitis

All those diseases that go with gall bladder, pancreas, intestines are in the same area. Colitis, IBS, Crohns, fatty liver disease, pancreatitis. I'm no doctor but from what I've read, you really have to clog up everything with fats - dairy, animal, fried oils. And celiac disease is often activated too. But if it's true he doesn't drink, he has that going for him.

6. He's the kind of person who would eat raw onions and garlic cloves

and whatever else causes him to produce the rankest odors.

He's old enough to know which foods and evil enough to do it.

13. Meidas Touch is saying reputable people in the courtroom informed them.

About Trump's behavior in terms of passing gas and the bad odor.

Meidas Touch is comprised of attorneys who are frank but know the law.
And they have contacts in this courtroom.

One of the Meidas Touch attorneys spent 30 years working at the Manhattan DA's office.
She has a lot of friends there.

17. I don't know if the reporters will talk about it or not.

Seems quite personal and disgusting.

Don't know if they will.

I do not think Ben Meiselas would do a Hot Take on it unless it was true.
And we know he has close contacts in the actual courtroom.

But whether the reporters will talk about it or not, not sure.

We are finding out reporters didn't tell us a lot about Trump's behavior before, during and after the WH.

And yes, I wouldn't put it past him to have done that on purpose.

12. Capped off with a generous portion of carbonated diet soft drinks...

That’ll do it every time.

I too have to wonder if it is either consciously purposeful or sub-consciously passive/aggressive.

He's an old man who's not sleeping much, and to my eye at least, he's obviously on some kind of GLP-1.
