Trump looks high. I bet he is seriously Un-Well. Like blood pressure unwell. Like heart attack un-well.

and teeth forward. It is very awkward and distracting. It reminds me of the way Edwards used to do that wormtongue thing when running in 2004. (He had broken the habit by 2008--probably with heavy coaching).

The grimace is an ape facial expression that usually is part of a display response, and often associated with fear or insecurity. I think Trump is always on the edge of fear because he is really insecure. He always feels as though he is a millimeter away from being exposed to ridicule and humiliation. Of course, his aggression also has a significant fear component to it.

Edwards was able learn to stop doing something that made him look bad. I don't think Trump can learn to do or stop doing anything.

but DO NOT. If you think some of Newt's old friends have forgotten their recipes for "heart attacks", you have another thing coming. Not like it would be that hard to sell people that a 70 something blowhard croaked, and then President Gingrinch can finally get his hands on the chariot he has waited for decades to get his hands on.

Trump would be absolutely crazy to allow a plotting sociopath like Gingrich to be one knife away from his own job. Trump is a lot of things, but he's not suicidal. So it makes no sense....

...UNLESS Trump really does plan to bail out after winning the job. Then he can run off, start his TV network with President Gingrich as an exclusive guest every week, and profit from the sell-off of America.
