        Yeah - I thought it was some shitty AI deepfake thing at first glance which is the only reason I bothered to look closer

          AI might miscount fingers, but looks much better than that, and frankly I doubt it has the nuance to make someone look so realistically old, tired, and bedraggled, since it’s mostly been trained on pictures that tried to look good, and not like the human equivalent of that famous poorly taxidermied lion.

        Hey, if I had to go into a sheriff’s office, I’d want to send a body double too. Can’t even blame him.

        Same goes for the gorilla enclosure at the zoo, a gang hideout, a sewer, etc.

          a sewer

          You’re really going to regret missing out on an opportunity to meet The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

      I’m convinced he did. Maybe multiple. It’s more obvious in this photo but it looks like his right side shows evidence going back years. He also often covers his right hand with his left hand. My father had a stroke and started doing that. He always had the affected hand covered by the stronger one.

        Wonder if stress from the assassination attempt brought it on…it was just a month before that interview.

        And he seems to have gotten…weirder…ever since.

          Its probably due to Kamala decimating him at the polls, among other things. Racists abhor getting 1-upped by the people they hate

          LOL, this guy doesn’t stress over silly things like reality. Besides, that assassination attempt was a dream come true for him.

            He thought it was a dream come true, turns out most people don’t give a shit that a violent rapist ex president that wants to hurt them was shot at. I imagine his last years like that English King in Braveheart.

              Haha! That would finally be some measure of justice. Now if only a lib could get pregnant by his kids and inherit his empire.

      That’s what I thought too. His facial droop from his previous strokes seems pronounced here. Likely from stress and lack of sleep.

    I think this is the first time I’ve ever seen Trump facing directly forwards.

    It looks weird, like seeing one of the Simpsons facing the screen.

    It makes his bald head so much more obvious too.

    Honest question - is that really him? Something about the image seems super off (other than the pedophile standing there). I don’t just wanna scream “AI Deep fake” but I did think it was an impersonator almost immediately

    The fuck? How are handcuffs safe? They are disproportionately used in cases where injury and therefore unneeded suffering is a likely outcome. Sure they are “safe” if you are the asshole cop, but the majority of people are not the asshole cop.
