I'm hoping for a barn-burner of a SOTU speech, where it will become painfully obvious to all.

especially bloated and pasty (maybe that's why he was "heavily made-up" at Mar-a-Lago).

Of course, all of those things are on top of his innate assholery, bigotry, sexism and narcissism...He really is one for the textbooks isn't he?

I wonder if he will follow through with his physical, and if it will be released.

(part of his narcissism) he won't see a Doctor regularly, as a man his age should. He actually believes he's as healthy as he can be. He's in tip-top shape. If that shape is a pear, then I suppose he's correct. I sincerely doubt he'll live past 75. His cholesterol and A1C have to be off the charts. A body in physical distress does not bode well for his mental health either.

being propped up by IG farben-patented drugs, administered to him in the diet cokes Alex Jones hand delivers to him, nightly. And abuse of prescription hair growth hormones.

All add up to the perfect brainstorm in the widdle tinpot dictator's noggin.

Junk food is not, and being sedentary, and drinking Diet Cokes all day with artificial sweeteners in. That's for starters. Then you have the family history of dementia and the way his life has not challenged him to learn anything new. He was a rich guy who had everything done for him.
