Dialysis Patient Angry He Cant Bring Cutout Of Donald Trump To Treatment

It just feels like bringing something from home to make you comfortable, the man told reporters.
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. (AP) A Florida man undergoing kidney dialysis three times a week is upset that he cant bring a life-sized cardboard cutout of President Donald Trump for emotional support.
Nelson Gibson told WPBF that his family cant sit with him during his three-and-a-half-hour treatments. To help, he began bringing a picture of Trump as a comfort item.
It just feels like bringing something from home to make you comfortable, Gibson told the West Palm Beach area television station.
Gibson said no one complained about the photo. Next, he started bringing a small cardboard cutout of himself standing next to a Trump photo. No one complained about the small cutout, and Gibson told the station that some people even took photos with it.
On Saturday, Gibson took a life-sized cutout of Trump to his treatment at Fresenius Kidney Care in Port St. Lucie. He said that again, no one took issue with this new emotional support item.
But when he returned Tuesday for treatment with the presidential cutout, Gibson ran into a roadblock.
They told me it was too much and it wasnt a rally, he told the TV station.
His son Eric contacted officials at the facility to find out what the problem was.
It was supposed to be an issue of safety infectious disease which made no sense, Eric Gibson said.
The Gibsons say they feel singled out .......................

People like this should go play in traffic.

(54,437 posts)...if some other patients started bringing life-size cutouts of their own heroes--such as Ayatollah Khomeini, Adolf Hitler, Che Guevara, Idi Amin, and Lenin?
Totally Tunsie
(10,885 posts)will make a surprise drop-in visit one day when he's at Mar-a-loco. Port St. Lucie isn't very far away from Palm Beach. That would get Chump some cheap press coverage.
If Chump brings his Sharpie, he can autograph Gibson's "security". Geez...having that in my room would give me nightmares!

We had a few Trumpanzees at my dialysis center. They conversed with each other. We only talked with our group too.
