This has got to be one of the stupidest threads ever in the history of DCUM. I mean, seriously??

My husband is very heavy. He has trouble walking because his weight makes his knees bad. He said from his perspective, everyone mocking Trump for having trouble walking down the ramp, is making fun of him as well. That basically we're all just engaging in a whole lot of fat shaming, which doesn't end with Trump.

My husband hates Trump as much as I do, which is to say a lot. He doesn't think we should refrain from mocking Trump for his physical ailments because it's mean to Trump, but because so many other people - who aren't egregious, nasty, evil bullies - will also feel the sting.

Anyway. I feel very badly now. 10 years married to this guy, and sometimes he still has to remind me that not everyone gets to walk through the world with good knees.

It's not about making fun of him. It's about his deteriorating health.

What happened to Trump 6 months ago when he was rushed to the hospital? We still don't know.

In 2016 there were threads just loke this claiming that Hillary had Parkinson's disease. What goes around, comes around.

He descended the ramp the way my ds would have at 2, by 3 he was able to do them one foot in front of the other, alternating left, right, left... by 4 he was running up and down the stairs... if he started shuffling again, up, down... left food, left foot. I would take him to a neuro to see what was wrong.

It’s even worse than you think. It was a ramp. He wasn’t even on stairs.

Just curious- why does everyone say he wears lifts in his shoes? I get that he’s vain but he’s already pretty tall. Are lifts that common of a thing?

That would have been gold. No wonder he’s walking so carefully! He’s terribly afraid we’ll laugh our heads off if he ever fell. And we will! I think Trump is quite afraid of the public.

No, I think that part is nonsense. Amidst all the horrible truths about him, there are nuggets of good old-fashion nonsense.

I think they are common for men in Hollywood who are short for movies (Tom Cruise, for example). If you look at the top of Trump’s feet, they slope upward similar to a woman wearing heels. That’s partly because he is obese but is too steep for that to be the only reason. He is vain enough to wear lifts and lifts would cause him to pitch forward when standing and make it difficult to walk down ramps.

He’s not afraid of us laughing, he’s afraid of us seeing how far he’s deteriorated.

Looks totally fine. Insane you are resorting to this. Don't be upset the Dem nominee cannot speak.
