And that's what he looks like at the start of the campaign...by September I expect him to look like not much more than an oversized psudopod.

If that photo was the president coming back from a CDC briefing where he’d learned the US was about to suffer 100,000 casualties from a pandemic which could not be prevented despite the best efforts of the entire federal government ... it would be poignant.

As it is ... it’s sad, it’s just sad.

To us he looks defeated, but his supporters will see a man exhausted after another full day working for the American people.

He had to salute so many times too. Can’t forget that. It’s a workout without weights

I don't know. I suspect his followers might actually be quite sensitive to him looking weak and defeated. I think his pompous teflon image has been a large part of his appeal.

Not all his fans can be hardcore cultists. There's likely to be a lot of people there who just liked the energy around him, the excitement and attention. When the energy is gone, they'll just lose interest.

So Trumps next event is in Phoenix at a church in two days? Not a big rally but seems like a poor idea.

Pray away the 'rona.

I wonder if people are going to reserve all the tickets again then no-show.

I think some of his supporters are with him because they perceive him as a "winner". If there is a stench of defeat around Trump, some of these people won't want to be associated with that.
