I would love the opportunity to gift him an old fashioned shiner.

You can get your hand bruised by hitting it against a wall.

Traveler (Apolgies to Ogden Nash):

Mr. Clot, Mr. Clot, coagulated red;
Make your way from Don's left hand
Up into his head.

He's on some blood thinner and, likely, a lousy candidate for IV sticks because he has crap veins and flinches when stuck.
His brain has died long before his body has sense enough to quit.

The putrefaction of his flesh may be starting to catch up with the decay of his brain.

That's not a bruise. That's a blood vessel leaking thin blood from a puncture wound caused by a doctor (or himself) injecting whatever it takes to keep him alive and upright.

If overused, the vessel will eventually collapse.

Interesting that Trump's hands are the first (visible) part of him to die.

I really don't know anyone who is not waiting for Trump to die. And that includes those who still vote GOP to ensure forced births. There is no love for the man; he won't be missed.

I'm really surprised the DOJ hasn't launched massive investigations into all those table corners that keep assaulting Trump's hands.

People are saying he got it from backhanding Melania.

Leprosy it's called. Leper Trump. Suits him fine.

That skin keeps getting thinner. Probably need to amputate, then he can have a hook.

(Including Melania but that's another story.)

I doubt if his body even makes it to the Capitol Rotunda so people can come and pay their respects.

OTOH, somebody might write a book called "2026 ~ The Year Democracy Almost Died."

The Slovenian rent-a-wife is definitely waiting for trump to croak. They don't even live in the same state.

Melania's life as the First Lady probably isn't all that glamorous with the exception of unlimited credit cards and wardrobe designers. She's sort of locked in a prison of her own making at Mar-a-Lago with no place to go and nothing to do when she got there.

She called the White House executive apartment a "dump" so that's out of the question.

None of her business ventures have been successful. End of story is that she's just a prop for Donald's illusion of himself as man enough to have a beautiful wife. As for son, Baron, it's rumored that her marriage contract called for "one and done." which she has strictly enforced.

I think she longs for the good ol' days at Trump Tower and the freedom to shop-till-you-drop on 5th Avenue.

I doubt that they even see or talk to each other except when she has to trot herself out for public display. After which, the media reports, she makes an immediate fast getaway to her plane waiting on a runway
