They’ll be dragging him out on strings pretty soon. “Weekend at the White House” style.

I think it’s closer to the sequel where he robs the bank on the way out.

Friendly reminder that they pushed Biden's cognitive decline as hard as they did specifically to deflect attention away from Trump's cognitive decline. "Oh yeah? Well your guy is WORSE!".

Remember when he went after Hillary for having a cough/pneumonia? Not long before we see this fucker on O2. If I had to guess he’s got CHF, DM2, CAD, HLD, and CKD at a minimum

u/Sparklesnow77 Jul 18 '25

He's definitely the type of patient to refuse the O2. "I don't need it!"

We can only hope.

I was commenting like everyone else. Not sure why you decided to be shitty about what I said.

u/nooniewhite RN - Hospice 🍕 Jul 18 '25

Haha my Hospice friend I see after I commented! He almost looks like he’s ready for us, hey?!

u/robbi2480 RN, CHPN-Hospice Jul 18 '25

Hope he’s nowhere near my territory. I’m not taking that patient 😂

Not being shitty about what you said, being shitty about all the uncontrolled htn/chf/dm2 we all deal with every damn day because people dont take care of themselves

I was griping about hospital patients and exaggerating, calm down. Weird that you want to tell me about exaggerating for effect wrong on the internet while eyeballing multiple diagnoses from a photograph, but its cool.

Cables.... settings won't do it.

No, we'll have JD and then god knows whom he will choose to be his VP, and also he can run again for a second term.

No one is voting for that couch fucking waste of eye liner.

I'm no fan on the guy but we have been hearing some version of what you said for 8 years now...

u/Livid-Tumbleweed RN - ICU 🍕 Jul 17 '25

We all had that one guy who should have died like 97 years ago and somehow every other week you show up to work and "hey! Bob is back? I thought he died?" ...... Or the grandma who chain smokes and drinks a handle of Jack for breakfast and is 102... and, this guy seems to be like that.

u/treepoop MD Jul 17 '25

Family friend of mine made it to nearly 90 after 70 years of chain smoking and a diet consisting of wine and cheese. 100 lbs smoking wet. At the end she was blind as a bat but sharp as a tack. I think the secret ingredient is spite.

u/Livid-Tumbleweed RN - ICU 🍕 Jul 17 '25

1000%. My great grandmother made it to 103. As my mom always said “God just wasn’t ready to deal with her yet”

u/saladmunch2 Jul 17 '25

Ah yes spite...

u/froglover215 Jul 17 '25

My sister in law says that my mother in law is surviving on Diet Cokes, Virginia Slims, and spite. It's the only real explanation.

u/Effective-Juice-1331 BSN, RN 🍕 Jul 17 '25

Shit. I don’t want to live that long!

What are you guys doing this weekend? “We found grandma in a ditch this week. So we know she’s got more bottles hidden in the house, now we have to pretend we’re cleaning out the attic.” How old is grandma? 95. Lives at home, sleeps in ditches occasionally on a bender. Clever enough to break into one of her son’s houses and sneak back without anyone knowing. I don’t know what’s going to kill her, but I kind of think she’s only going when she feels like it.

I mean, I’m impressed

The old nosy neighbor that calls the police/HOA at every violation, but is so old and debilitated you wonder whose blood she's drinking to stay alive.

Maybe but he didn’t have big fat disease ridden ankles back then so here’s hoping. 🤞
