21. Not just spots on his hands....

More like evidence of an IV infusion that left bruising. Not an uncommon occurrence, for sure, but when you’re POTUS, every spot, bruise, swelling, cut or boo boo is scrutinized. Add to that his age (79 and counting), a few stumbles, swollen feet ( noticeable for the tight fitting shoes) and curiosity builds around what might cause these things. He won’t ever address it, but if it was Biden he’d be hounded relentlessly to tell all. Media folks won’t rock the boat by asking him directly why he has thick makeup on the back of his hand.

If these symptoms keep up, even the faithful will wonder what is going on with their god-king. The cracks in his base foundation are there and some of them won’t go away quietly. They’ve already shown their willingness to ask questions. That’s where his real problem resides. The MAGAs who see chinks in his armor are the weak spot he needs to shore up. Maybe he thinks insulting them is the way to scare them back into compliance. LOL!
