Trump Wanted to Leave Hospital in Superman Shirt
October 3, 2022 at 10:27 am EDT By Taegan Goddard

Axios has this excerpt from Maggie Haberman’s new book, Confidence Man, as Donald Trump was about to be discharged from the hospital after having Covid:

“He came up with a plan he told associates was inspired by the singer James Brown, whom he loved watching toss off his cape while onstage, but it was in line with his love of professional wrestling as well.”

“He would be wheeled out of Walter Reed in a chair and, once outdoors, he would dramatically stand up, then open his button-down dress shirt to reveal a Superman logo beneath it. (Trump was so serious about it that he called the campaign headquarters to instruct an aide, Max Miller, to procure the Superman shirts; Miller was sent to a Virginia big-box store.)”

5. LOL.

10. LOL...reminds me of the Ben Garrison "Trump fantasy physique" cartoons.

Seriously, Garrison's cartoons have to be seen to be believed. I originally thought they were parodies, and I know that I wasn't the only one who did.

4. You'd have thought he'd demand the Superman shirt with the the letter "T" nt

6. Are Superman shirts tailored to accommodate man-boobs?

I'm almost sorry he was talked out of it - it would have been comedy gold.

7. He should have left in a straight jacket

8. Please edit to read ...."Miller was sent to the HUGE FATASS big-box store."

9. Good to know he was focusing on the important things while thousands were dying every day

Needy Amin, the bride at every wedding, the diva at every opera, and the corpse at every funeral. Has to be the center of attention at all times.

11. Tell him he has powers to fly when wearing that shirt

Then take him to the roof of tRump Tower, and let his ego do the rest...

17. Can't. His closeness to Vlad has made him deathly afraid of heights and windows

12. Was the song "Macho Man" also a part of the plan?

[Polybius]

13. Is this him?

15. I thought this was reported at the time.

I distinctly recall reading about the pig wanting to do this.

16. He couldn't wear it because his aides forgot to also buy a sports bra
