How is bad BO worse than the shit that comes out when he opens his mouth?
and that stench can travel very long distances
Its an interesting article because it talks about who cares about it. His supporters care the most. So he goes to great lengths to keep it covered up in the press (but not in real life? Somehow?).
Honestly I don't understand how this is an issue he cannot fix. Supposedly he is wealthy and connected, I can't believe he couldn't get treatment if it is some sort of condition or fucking use soap on a daily basis if it is not.
The only other thing coming to mind is the purported incontinence and adult diapers, but then I can't believe all his sycophants or generally all of the people he interacts with are willing to ignore an adult man smelling like literal feces without fail.
Fascinating isn't it. An "issue for him to fix" requires he acknowledge the issue.
He will not. People around him fear that he will suspect it is an issue. It can't be brought up. Address it? HA! Acknowledge some deficiency? First of all - are you new? NO - and secondly name one other time where trump has said 'this was a problem with me so i changed'.
He is, and I say this in all seriousness, a demented narcissistic sociopath. This fecal aroma around him is a walking proof of that. That the world's media has apparently chosen to keep quiet about for fear of being sued, or in thrall to their conservative masters or something.
I really think everyone should think about why this is a thing at all, as you have here. The answers are terrifying. And another aspect of why his "sanewashing" by the press is just one aspect of his media existence, almost entirely created and maintained by corporate news for the benefit of - trump.
I mean, even if you try to play along it seems crazy not a single person would visibly retch or show another sign of disgust. I once rode the subway and there was a homeless man who had visibly shat himself some distance on the station, when the wind blew in and like two dozen people waiting at the station would audibly gag and retch from the stench.
I definitely believe the trumpet stinks, but i am just stumped how nobody, not even random supporters are taken by surprise to the effect of a repulsed reaction. I know i am covering my nose if it smells like shit all of a sudden.
That’s about halfway down the article. There’s also
And further elaboration from the Congressman, including “That’s kind of that. I’ve been amazed that everybody is just kind of learning about this now,” - to your point.
Probably has at least something to do with the fact that he eats McDonalds all the fucking time? That can’t be good for your GI tract at his age.
Smell is deeply ingrained.
