The released results of his physical exam revealed a couple things possibly worth noting:
Hes still on high doses of aspirin daily and that leads me to believe that his episode some time ago which has clearly left him with a right-sided facial droop may, I say may, have been a minor brain bleed, which qualifies as a minor stroke. It would not surprise me in the least if he had other evidences of bleeds, possibly in the frontal cortex which would possibly enhance his fronto-temporal dementia. Thats why hes had multiple imaging visits.
And Ill tell you something else: we know from multiple reports, especially Noel Caslers podcasts, that Hes an Adderall addict. He may be telling people that the white pills that he crushes and snorts are aspirin, so they wont know that hes a junkie. Nothing is unbelievable with this guy.
Of course they gave him another cognitive test which the stated he got 30/30 correct. In all my years, I have never heard of anyone who passed a cognitive exam either flying colors being asked to repeat it within a relatively short time frame.
When all is said and done, and hes out of the WH one way or another, we should federally fund a museum of his doctors, beginning with the podiatrist who diagnosed the phantom bone spurs,, in order to memorialize this outrageous demonstration of medical lying-through-the-teeth of his physicians throughout the years. A real testimony to grotesque unprofessionalism.

(581 posts)Hes snorting adderall but when people see the pills hed say that its just aspirin. This is in addition to the aspirin that he actually takes.

(3,100 posts)It sounds like it would burn like hell, too what result? And why would he snort any white powder in front of anyone and not in private.
mwmisses4289
(4,856 posts)So he would be used to snorting. However, keep in mind these are unsubstantiated rumors of t using and drinking some forty or so years ago.
PCIntern
(28,671 posts)And hes quite reliable.
As far as liquor goes, I can see where he doesnt or wouldnt drink. A lot of people dont like the taste or the sensation of it.

(104,019 posts)At the idea of a museum!
Suddenly my coffee charged brain went to a general crime museum for the most high level crimes in our history which then went to the reality that it would end up being configured like the museum at The House on the Rock! It's a rambling museum where it starts out small and quaint as a Frank Lloyd Wright inspired house that grows into an hours-long wander through magnificent collections into larger and ever grander displays of full sized carousels and fantastic musical machines! In the case of a crime museum, I could see -45's regime being that last three large collections on display and spilling out into the parking lot where, perhaps, that flying Qatari jet might be viewed.

as part of his criminal enterprise) into the Krasnov Presidential Library + Crime Museum... It
should be just as discombobulated as his thinking processes...

(4,213 posts)Putting this museum in Atlantic City, possibly in one of his old casinos if they are still standing. It would need expanding and in 50-100 years itll probably be underwater when the Greenland and West Antarctic ice sheets fully collapse, which will be a fitting tribute to MAGA and all the corporates who told us the science behind global warming was bunk.

(15,613 posts)a couple of million in cash. He bought chips and never cashed them in. The "buy in" was used either as an asset for accounting purposes or to pay a note that came due.
The Trump Castle is now the Golden Nugget. It is one of the two "rattiest" casinos that still operate in A.C.
Submariner
(13,461 posts)when a study came out a few years ago indicating those of us over 75 taking aspirin could experience brain bleeds.
So along with cholesterol, if we're lucky maybe he has a massive cranial hemorrhage and bleed out in his near future.

(114,859 posts)for an 80 year old--bamboozling the masses and media-- while leaving out significant details (that medication list sans dosages or prior history of meds with dates of discontinuance for many--amusing) or explaining the many other questions experienced physicians would have-- whether internists, neurologists, cardiologists, gerontologists, or radiologists...A fourth year medical student would get a pass. An intern might get a chance to revise... An R-1, would get an emphatic "talking to" and asked whether they were being intentionally obtuse (and too cute by half), but hey Dr. Sean, it got the job done, I guess.

(38,037 posts)Not only would it explain most of the visible signs of progressive physical decline. It also illustrates his rejection of the idea that anyone may know more than he does, including doctors and anyone with a lick of sense. Who knows, maybe after it was first brought up he is doubling down just to show them!
Major Long-Term Effects
Gastrointestinal (GI) Bleeding and Ulcers: Aspirin blocks the enzymes that help protect the stomach lining. Over time, this often leads to gastritis, stomach ulcers, and a heightened risk of serious upper GI bleeding. nhs.uk
Hemorrhagic Stroke: While aspirin protects against clot-related (ischemic) strokes, its blood-thinning effect simultaneously increases the risk of bleeding in the brain (hemorrhagic stroke). Mayo Clinic
Easy Bruising and Bleeding: Because aspirin permanently disables platelets, your blood takes longer to clot. This results in easier bruising, nosebleeds, or prolonged bleeding from minor cuts. NHS inform
Renal and Hepatic Effects: Long-term, high-dose usage can cause kidney (renal) insufficiency or liver enzyme elevations, although this is less common with low-dose regimens. Mayo Clinic
Heart Failure Risk: Some recent studies indicate that prolonged, daily aspirin use may increase the risk of heart failure, even in individuals who previously had no cardiovascular disease. ScienceDirect.com
Along with the miasma of other substance abuse and a lifestyle of the poorest choices.
Stand back, folks. This tick is about to pop.

They should all have their licenses revoked.

(61,155 posts)I realize he is bad taking advice, but if a doctor told his his tests showed he had evidence of brain bleeds and he should avoid anything thinning his blood, it's hard to believe he continues it.
oldsoldierfadingfast
(425 posts)taught me that there are some 'very' good doctors out there, along with some good doctors, some average doctors, some poor doctors and some very poor doctors.
Now I learn there is a bottom to the pit of doctoring - and they are called 'Trump's doctors'.

(14,664 posts)that he has an artificial upper palate due to his nasal septum and upper palate being destroyed by snorting Adderall, cocaine, etc.
Lifeafter70
(1,218 posts)If you are missing your upper pallet.
Also if your artificial pallet isn't in place
everything from your nasal cavity drains out either through your nose or into your mouth. . Eating and drinking is also difficult.
I'm not sure his pallet is missing because I don't see the drainage from his nose. It would be pretty consistent if that was the case.
I know this because my son had his upper pallet removed due to cancer.
Jilly_in_VA
(14,664 posts)It's stelled PALATE". And I don't think he's missing the entire thing, just has a hole in it from snorting.

(1,218 posts)It happens to the best of us. You might want to spell check your reply.

(22,176 posts)This has happened to me. I have said or done something and received instant karma lol.
I was just trying to point out that if trump had the problem she was referring to we would be seeing nasal drip . Even if he just had a hole.
Who knows it might be true but all I was pointing out is he does not have same appearance as my son does, who does have a missing portion of his upper palate.
Edited to add: found two mistakes example of instan karma lol
