Am I the only one who thinks he's not the one tweeting those? I have a feeling it's Jared just rattling off talking points to project stability.
Nah, that has to be Trump himself. Others would write more coherent tweets I'm sure.

He must be taking some pretty good sh**t.






WHOA...







This can't be good, right? No one, not even Trump loyalists can see this as stable behaviour, right?

I mean, would you discharge someone acting like this, back to the White House? Would you give them back their little paper slip with the nuclear codes?

He’s literally just tweeting.......

Do you think stable people tweet like that? All caps, back to back, this is Kanye when he's off his meds stuff. It's messy even for Trump.
Trump tweets like this in caps all the time.  Y’all are reaching sooooooo hard if you think this is not normal.

Obligatory reminder that the only reason why protection of people with pre-existing conditions is even an issue this election is because the Trump Administration has explicitly asked the Supreme Court to overturn the entirety of the ACA, including that protection.

I don't know something seems off
Its true that Trump tweets like this in caps all the time but in this case he just seems to be randomly throwing out talking points one after the other out of nowhere

now its possible that maybe this is just some staffer who is using trump twitter account
but if that is not the case I would be pretty worried based on how erratic and random his post seem

Trump really is the nightmare patient. This is hilarious.

Anyone voting for Trump now on this forum, with all this information given and incapsulating to you, is an idiot.

That has been true for a very long time. I don't think there is any going back for the remaining supporters. They have too much invested in Trump now to abandon him.

So THIS IS what Redban meant when he wrote earlier that Trump had been "cleared" by his medical team for the car ride...

Yeah, it's something that's anecdotally referred to as "steroid euphoria".  It's a phenomenon that's pretty well documented in the anabolic steroids, but not well understood in the corticosteroids.  I'm not sure about dexamethosone, but I know of a study indicated that around one percent of patients on prednisone (a sister corticosteroid) experience some sort of adverse psychological effects as a result of the drug's interactions with the CNS.

My anecdotal observations lead me to believe it's much higher than 1% for prednisone.

According to this, it's dose dependent and I think it's a safe bet that Trump is on a heavy dose of steroids.
