Here is Trump's swollen right hand:

[Kingofalldems]

He puts makeup on his hand! Where's that freaking Jake Tapper? Does anyone know why his hand is swollen and discolored?

My friend Jacquie shared this picture of Trump from the G7. Look at his right hand. It’s swollen and covered up with 💄 MAGA has been focusing on Biden’s health, while they should be focusing on TFG! @jaketapper.bsky.social what do you think, since you’re an expert in the medical field now. 🤪🤪

[MustLoveBeagles]

1. The media will ignore this too

[Irish_Dem]

2. Looks like he is hiding a bandaid on his hand.

[ms liberty]

10. And it goes right across a nice vein with a flat spot. Experience recognizes that

[Irish_Dem]

19. So what is the purpose of this medical procedure?

[ms liberty]

38. Usually an IV but it could be a blood draw.

I have two flat spots on my right hand, one at my vein in that same area, after it was used for an IV. The other is from a blown vein when trying to draw blood during my chemo. Since then if they needed to use my hand they've gone in above it, closer to my wrist. I'm odd because I can't have anything on my left arm now, for almost 30 years. I don't have any lymph nodes after my mastectomy in 97, and my doctors won't use my left arm unless it's an emergency.

[Irish_Dem]

47. Aren't blood draws for most people done in the arm?

So it would see he is getting regular IVs?
I wonder for what purpose?

[3catwoman3]

52. " Aren't blood draws for most people done in the arm?"

It depends on where the phlebotomy tech thinks will be the most successful. Some people, like me, have veins that roll away when the tech tries to get a needle in, so they'll take wherever works.

[Auggie]

56. Also depends on the medication being inserted

A technician told me arm veins are safer for inserting certain contrasts than hands.

[Irish_Dem]

67. He is probably getting a drug cocktail and regular blood draws.

[barbtries]

72. I tell them you will draw blood from my hands.

the veins are so accessible I could almost do it myself, whereas in my arm an ultrasound is required since the needle dislodged during a CT with contrast.

[Bluetus]

116. Same here, they almost always have to go into my hands

[ms liberty]

57. Most are in the arm, yes. If they're going to do several things, could be the hand.

When they blew my vein, the nurse was drawing blood and knowing I was going up to chemo after, was going to use a heplock type of IV so that after the blood draw she could leave it in and they would use it to hook up my chemo so I would only have to get stuck once. Then she blew my vein, and tried to keep getting blood she start tapping it and I could feel the needle moving back and forth inside my vein, but I held it together.. She got thru and sent me upstairs and I was waiting in the oncology clinic lobby when they called me up to the desk. The nurse said they'd need to draw blood again because the sample was bad due to the blown vein and that's what made ms liberty get hysterical in the waiting room of the (jam packed) Morris Oncology Clinic at Duke.

[Irish_Dem]

66. Sorry Ms. L for the blood draw nightmare.

I have a smaller version, veins that twist and roll all the time. Darn stinkin' veins.

I have been lucky when they use a butterfly pediatric needle, I don't know if you have tried that.

I think the consensus is that Trump may be getting regular blood draws.
And is on a cocktail of meds.

[ms liberty]

78. Now I can laugh about it, unless I'm getting my blood drawn

But yes, I agree - the Orange Monster is getting IV's and probably blood draws on the regular. He's not well. he and his staff know he'snot well, and it's being hidden from everyone else.

[Irish_Dem]

81. At the time it is not so funny is it?

I hate having to get blood draws every six months ahead of my physicals.

You will like this story. Even experienced techs have trouble with my veins.
The last time I got a blood draw, the regular experienced tech had a young student with her.
He was training to be phlebotomist. I was thinking Hell No, this is going to be painful
watching this kid fish around for my tiny twisting veins.

But the experienced tech really wanted him to practice on me. So I said what the heck.

Can you believe it, this kid goes in very confident, gives one strong poke, needle in vein
with no pain whatsoever. I told him it was a miracle and he is a genius.

I hope he is there for my next blood draw.

[Boomerproud]

85. My brother is an EMT and he says you're either good at it or not.

I imagine it's a hard skill to learn. I get blood draws every six months due to type 2.

[Irish_Dem]

87. The kid was a natural.

[synni]

62. I've gotten blood drawn from my hand for 50 years

It's far less painful that way.

[Fiddlelady11]

118. They can't find my veins

In my arm, so they do blood draws from my hand. But there is something more serious going on with tRump. He is rotting from the inside.

[Rebl2]

107. They have

drawn from the top of my hand before when some inexperienced phlebotomist could not draw blood from the small veins in my arm. By the way, that didn’t work either. Really bad phlebotomist and that was in a hospital setting!!!

[róisín_dubh]

108. I have crap veins in my elbows

And they and my forearms are covered in tattoos. I wish the techs would take bloods from my hands or the sides of my wrists.

[electric_blue68]

114. I have small veins so they sometimes use the back of my hand when they can't get into the arm.

[erronis]

40. I'm guessing an infusion site. Saline, drugs, insulin, etc.

If it were to be a long-term infusion or frequent blood draws, they'd probably install a portal in the clavicle area. Be interesting to see if any photos show that type of device.

[IbogaProject]

50. Not Insulin !!

Insulin goes subcutaneously into tissue, not into a vein.

So either Saline, Blood tests and/or hard drugs are going in there.

[erronis]

59. I've had insulin via an infusion - trying to reverse a high blood potassium level.

[IbogaProject]

80. Ok

But that is an inpatient or under direct supervision treatment.

[Irish_Dem]

51. I'm not sure Trump would allow a clavicle portal.

He is so vain and squeamish. A big baby.

Could be insulin. He doesn't have the guts to give himself shots.

[Maru Kitteh]

83. Jesua no. He's not getting insulin regularly into a vein on his hand. THAT

you can be absolutely certain of. This is what makes medical speculation by non-trained, non-professional, non-medical persons so very amusing.

[Irish_Dem]

84. That is why I am asking.

I have no idea.
But I do know the psychology end of the scenario.

[Maru Kitteh]

92. Simple truth is, we don't know. Could be as simple as

one of the “wellness” industry freaks he likes to keep around (Loomer, Kennedy Jr.) has talked him into regular infusions of some homeopathy glorified hydration therapy with vitamins and flowers.

I mean, Laura Loomer did eat dog food. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/laura-loomer-pawsitive-pet-food-b2615820.html
Kennedy has eaten all kinds of things. Neither one of them is grounded in reality and Drump has proved himself very vulnerable to grade-A crackpot bullshit as evidenced by the covid bleach injections and lightbulbs up the ass advice he gave.

Too many variables. We don’t know.

[Irish_Dem]

98. I think we have some good guesses.

Based upon probability.

If Trump is taking an RFKjr concoction, he could be in real trouble,

[Maru Kitteh]

100. Yes. Let's hope for that. I want RFK and Loomer in charge of his health.

That should help finish him off in a more timely fashion.

[Irish_Dem]

101. Given Trump's age and health issues, just talking him out of the flu vaccine could kill him during flu season.

[forgotmylogin]

55. My hand swelled up in the hospital after having an IV in my hand for 4-5 days.

Mine was saline and antibiotics.

My guess is he gets regular infusions and has a 24/7 medical team attending him filling him with whatever will keep him healthy and alive. He could be dehydrated and receive saline if he consumes a lot of caffeine. They likely also want to make sure his blood doesn't thicken up like Nutella. There are probably rich people who get regular therapeutic IV cocktails of all kinds of vitamins and nutrients and other things civilians don't have access to. At his age, he's surely on a lot of meds and very few people would have the patience to sit and swallow 20-30 pills and vitamins at regular dosing intervals.

Having the IV in his hand means he doesn't have to remove a jacket to hook it up. They can also leave an IV needle inserted and taped up for several days if they know they're going to be blood-drawing or infusing him repeatedly.

I'd bet he has a permanently installed IV port that is like a metal button under the skin near the collarbone which accesses an artery. That's the normal spot they'd prefer to access an older person with delicate skin and difficult-to-access veins, but he's busy and having a tube in his neck isn't good for camera, so he prefers they put it in his hand.

[Irish_Dem]

63. This is a very good guess. I am sure they are medicating him with psychotropics.

At times he looks quite sedated, probably benzodiazepines.
And other times a bit manic, so some stimulants.

Yes he is not going to swallow a bunch of pills, everything goes into the hand IV.

Yes I think he is on quite a cocktail of drugs.

[misanthrope]

99. As someone who has been on weekly infusion for 19 years

I think yours is a well-reasoned reply.

[Grins]

74. Musculoskeletal problems caused by pulling crap out of one's ass. NM

[Irish_Dem]

79. I doubt that he can reach that part of his anatomy.

[Grins]

122. He has "friends." NM

[Igel]

113. It's the gap, as seen by the camera, between his hand and his pants and jacket hem.

Clue: It perfectly matches the floor color.

Other clues: It's where his jacket hem would be and most of us don't clutch our hands to our thighs.

As for the rest, meh.

I've gone to work after accidents. Spill something, need to finish what I'm doing, pivot and wake up seconds later on the floor; next day, black eyes. Spill something, screw finishing what I'm doing in making my huge batch of spaghetti sauce for the freeze ... I need to clean a burn from spilled bubbling sauce and next day go to work with improvised bandages made of paper towels and first aid tape because I don't have a 3"x8" bandage or two. Trip going up stairs, slam foot into stairs, limp next day because my toe is likely broken, but they heal and, well, whatever. (Note that once had an x-ray for tendonitis and the MD asked about the healed-over broken wrist ... "I had a broken wrist?" Then remembered a time as a teenager when I fell, thought maybe my wrist was sprained, but it hurt for weeks.

Maybe there's a huge bruise because he backhanded a WH serf staff member, Melania, or maybe he didn't use his safe word when his hired "specialist" was a bit rough because he didn't want to seem weak to posterity that would be watching the video.

Dunno. But the "band-aid" bit ... Nah.

What? Put the band-aid on over the makeup?

On edit (why bury that in something a click away?): Note that the demarcation line is also where you'd expect shadow to fall. Inside the "make up" area you get what you wouldn't expect--lots of creases and wrinkles. I'm in my mid-60s and every morning look at my face in the mirror and at times my hands and think, "Whose are these? Wait? What happened?!" Outside the "make up" area the skin's pink and fairly wrinkle/crease free. If bright light's overhead--and I mean bright, so that the picture has to be adjusted to handle the different in illumination--you might get that kind of effect. Don't do photograph editing, so dunno, but that doesn't seem unreasonable to me.

[Irish_Dem]

115. No, he put make up on the bandaid to hide it.

[John1956PA]

117. I have no opinion. Sometimes, the play of light vs. shadow produces odd results.

Similarly, I can not figure out what, if anything, is amiss if a zoom is performed of his hands and wrists in this photo.



This photo was published today, June 18, by CNN at the following link:
https://www.cnn.com/2025/06/18/politics/us-strikes-trump-iran-israel

[Irish_Dem]

119. The one picture I am referring to clearly looks like a bandaid with make up applied to it.

I have a number of hobbies/projects where I look at old and new pictures quite closely.

And this is what that picture looks like to me.

[BoRaGard]

3. Hmmm?

greedy corrupt republicon hand is corrupted

[Traildogbob]

4. What do we expect

Melania ain’t doing her wife duties.
He gotta take care of his own business now.
Straining the hell outta that right hand. And he don’t have enough money for teenage pageant girls to help, he is tooooo fucking cross for most women, except MAGA women. And he would never touch one of those cows with pistols on her ample hips with a tank top, cut off jeans, and in his weight class, the actual class he IS in.

[AZ8theist]

54. Your hand would be bruised too, trying to find that mushroom

[Traildogbob]

69. 😆

[rampartd]

5. he tried that "alpha handshake" crap with macron again. n/t

[mwmisses4289]

6. As usual for such events, he looks both

freakingly doped up and and ready to throw his toddler temper tantrum.

[underpants]

7. Punched a wall after the parade? Or after he saw all the NO KINGS coverage?

[erronis]

42. Or the ketchup bottle broke and shards ricocheted back to his hand... Unlikely.

I'm guessing he's only allowed small packets of condiments (and drugs).

[Cha]

110. Or All the Shit he's Swallowed Over

the Decades is Rebelling?

Traitor's hand, Face and now the back of his neck look like shit.

[jmbar2]

8. These pics keep cropping up periodically

Is he getting regular infusions?

[TommyT139]

9. He had this issue a few months back.

Anyone recall when? I think there was a pic from an oval office visiting dignitary presser.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

11. Swollen hands can indicate Kidney and Heart failure...

Before my husband died last month, his hands were more than twice their normal size as fluid was building up all over his body due to his having severe Congestive Heart Failure. When not enough blood is getting to the vital organs like the liver and kidneys from the pumping of the heart, fluid builds up over time to where it becomes quite obvious. Complicated by Type II Diabetes does not help either. My husband was not catheterized because he was swollen everywhere.

What is tRump hiding? That he may be more ill than previously reported by his so-called WH Doctor. My husband dozed off a lot due to his heart not pumping efficiently and being tired all the time. TACO Don has been seen dozing off more and more.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

18. Bruises can indicate intravenous treatment or disorientation / disfunction. He's been videoed dragging his right foot

He's also been videoed stumbling on steps to AF1 and I read that at G7 he used the "short steps" on AF1 (at the back?). He was videoed at the Capitol walking into a pillar and Moses Mike redirecting him.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

23. There is a lot more going on here with the TACO.

Sooner or later, things are going to come to a head. The stress alone is enough to kill a person. What is happening internally contributes as well.

[brush]

22. Thanks for this. There seems to be some serious underlying health problems there.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

30. It is becoming more obvious that the TACO is NOT a picture of good health.

TACO Don is days into his 80th year. Give him 6 months and it will come out that there is more than meets the eye going on. Given his lifestyle, his atrocious diet, so little sleep, and not having a supportive spouse, things are going to happen the closer he comes to 80.

All the shit Joe Biden was getting at the same age showed Joe still as fit and able to do his duties to the country despite lifestyle changes, etc. TACO? Not so much. Something about genetics one cannot make up or out run.

[rubbersole]

93. tsf couldn't "do his duties to the country" on his best day.

Maybe follow the example of the Secretary of Health and add some roadkill to his diet. McRib (of racoon or opossum) would give his cheeks some color.

[Maru Kitteh]

33. So sorry to hear of the loss of your husband. I hope you've had brilliant support

from hospice and/or friends and family. Death can be so lonely for the living, even when there are many hands to help.

Unfortunately, I don’t see other evidence of TSFs kidneys and heart actively checking out right now. He’s still walking fairly long distances fairly well and unaided in public without the use of assistive devices. His skin is really pink at the ears and fingers, not washed-out, greyish, bluish or greenish.

[AnotherMother4Peace]

12. CNN/Jake Tapper: "Biden left traps in the WH to harm tRump. This is Biden's fault!" As ridiculous as

yesterday's CNN headline blaming Biden for not controlling tRump's insanity.

Disclaimer to CNN, Jake Tapper, & tRumpers - My reply title is SACASM - not true, false, stupid. Sheesh - cult members believe anything (Jonestown, Branch Davidians, Heaven's Gate, etc.)

[Danmel]

13. Can you imagine what the picture in his attic

Looks like??

[erronis]

45. Dark and musty. Cobwebs and images of Fred haunting him for being such a failure.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

14. Trump is not well

[GP6971]

39. Well, Hi Sunshine!! How are things in Chicago? Do you live near the airport?

[peacefreak2.0]

41. Welcome

Your pizza should be coming soon.

[iscooterliberally]

15. Now his hand matches his ass, which is interchangeable with his head. n/t

[Maru Kitteh]

16. Looks like Ozempic quit him, but I digress. Stubby is probably a nightmare stick

for one. This has been spotted many times now, the bruised hands from either a draw or some kind of infusion. It’s more likely to be routine blood draws than an infusion but that doesn’t make the infusion scenario impossible, just much less likely.

I wouldn’t be surprised at all if he got it stuck in his head at some point that he wanted to have all blood draws taken from hi s hand. He’s VERY fluffy, and third-spacey, and his veins are probably crap, just judging by his skin. This means he may have had some tough draws that left his inner arms covered in bandages and him feeling like he looks like a junkie. He also seems like a GIANT BABY who would be “traumatized” by the errant needle pokes and need to fix his scared fee-fees by regaining some control of the situation which manifests by him directing the blood draws to be taken from the hands. Like an idiot. Because he’s an idiot.

I want a huckleberry creme cookie if I win the speculation contest.

[Ilsa]

26. I wouldn't want to stick him. I don't like

being abused for stuff that isn't my fault. His veins are probably very difficult to find and pierce since he has abhorred exercise all of his life. Whoever sticks him better keep china and glass and ketchup asay from him.

[BattleRow]

58. He's been sticking it to everyone else for YEARS now.

[littlemissmartypants]

102. DUzy!! 🥇🏆

[BattleRow]

106. Thank you.

[Irish_Dem]

48. Why does someone need so many blood draws?

[Maru Kitteh]

70. At 80 and bieng a narcissitic paranoid POTUS? MANY reasons.

I’ll pick a couple but there are TONS of reasons at his age and being the leader of the free world to keep tight surveillance on his inner machinery.

Anti-coagulation monitoring - He has had covid a couple of times at least that we know of. Clotting abnormalities and other changes like cardiac hypertrophy are common with and following covid. He may have had some angina pop up, or a PE, or something else that made the docs think it was a good idea for him to start anticoagulant therapy (blood thinners). If he failed Elequis/Plavix type drugs he’ll be on good old fashioned rat poison (Warfarin) that requires regular blood draws and monitoring.

He could be experiencing anemia for either known or unknown reasons.

He could be paranoid because Biden was recently diagnosed with prostate cancer that hadn’t been tested for in over a decade. You can see him demanding a test every 3 months, no? I can.

SEVERAL cardiac meds taken for a variety of reasons including dysrythmia should be monitored anywhere from a couple times a year to every few weeks depending on the medication and when it was initiated.

There’s dozens more reasons but the point is - I see horses, not zebras. In the absence of extraordinary evidence, I do not see a reason to believe this is anything other than the ordinary medical bothers of an 80-year-old man.

[Irish_Dem]

77. Seems like the most reasonable explanation.

But of course, there could be something unusual going on.
I also think he is on a psychotropic drug cocktail to keep him calm and to decrease
the cognitive slippage.

[Delphinus]

17. It looks

quite cadaverish!

[Hotler]

20. His hand has gone from the size of an 8yr old to a 10yr old, still small.

[vanlassie]

32. Winner!

[WVlaserguy]

21. Who knows where that hand has been?

I can only imagine…and it’s unsettling

[Farmer-Rick]

24. This happened to my uncle

After being in the hospital getting infusions regularly.

He would get blood drawn regularly too but it never caused swelling like this

Also my uncle never used make up on his hand and his hand had a distinct purplish color. They released him from the hospital like that and 48 hours later he was back in the hospital getting treated for blood clots. He eventually died from heart and kidney issues.

[ECL213]

25. He probably tried to touch his wife...

and she broke it.

[Uncle Joe]

27. It's what happens when you only use one hand to harvest too many shrooms.

I heard it can also make you go blind as well, someone should check his vision.

Thanks for the thread Kingofalldems

[lame54]

28. Hell-infant-titus

[SWBTATTReg]

29. Caused by his fall on the airplane ramp that he slipped and fell on?

[mwmisses4289]

31. Basically, as anyone with more than one cell can see,

he is sick, and getting sicker. Despite his doctors lying about how healthy he is, he is not healthy in any way, shape or form.

[llmart]

86. He's been lying about his health since the first time he was squatting in our White House.

I believe absolutely nothing that comes out of his mouth. He is a compulsive liar. He's a fake, a poser, a phoney...all the above and always has been.

Whatever his medical problems are, and I'm sure they are many and not few, I hope the Grim Reaper gets busy.

[Blue Owl]

35. Designed and directed by his red right hand

?si=ZuWDvX1c7wUg-KHp

[brush]

36. Remember Mitch McConnell had a similar condition with his hands before...

he had his 'buffering' incidents and had to be led away.

trump's got some serious health problems that's being hidden.

We might be looking at Vance soon, a Hopson's choice.

[Maru Kitteh]

44. That's too far of a jump. It's possible, certainly, that

TSF has a bruised hand because of some grave condition but it is way too far of a jump to say that he absolutlely has a serious health problem that’s being hidden. There’s really no outstanding evidence for that and too much that runs to the contrary. I’m saying this as a person who really wishes he would just go ahead and keel over already. I just don’t see the evidence. These could easily be routine blood draws you are looking at.

https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=20410260

[brush]

60. The man is nearly 80, dragging his leg and stumbling on AF One stairs.

Poor diet. He's never released his health report.

Not so far fetched IMO. The next few months will tell.

[bamagal62]

37. When my husband was going through chemo,

They trashed his veins. Now, when they draw blood, they can get it in his hand. Maybe his veins are trashed.

[Johnny2X2X]

43. The media makes me sick

If this were Biden it would be leading the news 247. The media works for the billionaires, not for the people. This is getting almost no coverage.

[dem4decades]

46. My hand looked like that when the IV was in my hand but not in the vein.

Trump's had an IV in him that malfunctioned would be my guess, what for, who knows.

[MuseRider]

49. If I don't get booted off the site again......

I would say, you really cannot tell why he is getting a draw done. For others it could be just things getting upset by all the stress but he is a barrel full of reasons to be ill.

Having put myself through Nursing School drawing for a hospital I would say you never can really tell from this. Anything you would guess from looking is probably about the same. You really have to wait for the analysis or a loose lip person taking care of someone.

[EYESORE 9001]

53. Main GOTT!!! It's swollen

to the size of a normal adult male hand

[Martin Eden]

61. Looks like a more authentic injury than his right ear not long after he was reportedly shot there

Just sayin

[appleannie1]

64. Hopefully he did not put a hole in a WH wall when he punched it and only his hand was hurt.

[lame54]

65. Clip from this morning - his hands looked fine

[ALBliberal]

68. Gout?

[Warpy]

71. Without a clearer picture---or better eyesight---not a clue

Could be swelling from repetitive stress (too much golfing, too many signatures), a sprain from starting to fall and catching himself on a piece of furniture or a wall, some kind of IV infusion gone wrong, throwing an undodged punch at one of his sycophants during one of his rages.

Or it could be something completely different, my own hands looked a lot like that a couple of months ago, swelling in the wrists and knuckles getting extreme enough to merge into cartoonish deformity, thank goodness for dangerous drugs.

The only thing we can say for sure is that it looks swollen.

[Botany]

73. Pulmonary Edema? End stage heart disease?

When the heart can no longer pump blood like it used to blood pools up ….. the edemas
turn black and blue unless drained.

Or I could be wrong.

[Kid Berwyn]

75. Evil building up.

If we don't do what he wants he'll explode!

Er, check that.

If we do what he doesn't want, he'll explode!

Either way, he looks great in that shade of orange, doesn't he? He really does. A fine look...elephant hands.

[NewEnglandAutumn]

76. He could

Be on blood thinners. If he has heart disease it would explain bruising and swelling

[ashredux]

82. That's exactly what a friend of mine, who's an MD, said

[SheltieLover]

88. Looks like a corpse

[Devilsun]

89. Prolly punched a wall after his

Vainglorious parade

How it’s swollen compared to the left
Now look at the close up
He’s covering his hematoma with MAKEUP
trying to hide the bruising
THEY ARE 🤥 TO U GUY’s
The man is unwell
@FarmLadyFarm
.. weren’t u just saying that
Bingo, my friend

[LymphocyteLover]

91. Geee-- I sure hope nothing is wrong with him...

[HarryM]

94. What about

His swollen head?

[cksmithy]

95. My veins in my hands always blow, whenever

I have had an infusion for surgery. The result is a big bruise. I always told them what would happen, but the nurses (who surely thought they knew and could do it better) then would try my wrist, move up my forearm and finally realize, it only works in my inner elbow. Before procedures, no matter how many times, I told the RN, or whoever inserts the needle, they always had to try it in my hand the first time, before they believe me. I always get a bruise and severe swelling in my hand. They watch my vein get bigger and bigger, and say, oh, my god, the vein blew.

(I guess he is so stupid or out of it, he doesn't know that they can use his arm.)The last two times I have had small surgical procedures, the nurse, asked the doctor, who said, sure do what she says. I always ask them to use the same vein they would use for a blood lab work, the inner elbow. A little uncomfortable, and awkward for the doctor, ( arm isn't in the right place) but very doable. I just wonder if they are cleaning up his blood, giving him a detox infusion, vitamins, etc. There are all sorts of infusions he could be getting that could make him able to appear? to be somewhat healthy.

[sakabatou]

96. My guess he's EXTREMELY unwell, and the WH is lying about his fitness

Possible edema due to high salt intake (look how much junk food he eats).

[Ping Tung]

97. Did he injure it while grabbing the wrong ******?

[mzmolly]

103. I hope it's heart failure.

[malaise]

104. More likely kidney failure

I’ll take any one of them

[mzmolly]

111. Eenie Meenie

[Tarzanrock]

105. He was trying to 'choke' Malaria ...

and she bit his hand. The Turd is now infected with rabies!
