James Carville: What Is Wrong With trump's Hands?

[MagaSmash]

Carville is calling for No Syphilis Rallies.
If not Syphilis; the most likely reason for makeup on the hand is to cover bruises, which could appear from minor trauma, IV insertions, or medical treatments.

1. Same as McConnell.

Blood transfusions from disappeared children

3. I'm far from a Carville fan

...but he has the prominence to get this question further out there than it has.

4. I get bruises on my hands and arms.

The cause is liver disease. I can tell how my numbers are for liver related clotting factors like prealbumin and protime INR by how many bruises there are, how fast they grow, and how long they hang around.

There aren't a lot of other things that can cause bruises like that without more overt symptoms. (Not that liver disease tiptoes around the other symptoms menu, but it can manifest that way.) I drank myself into this corner, but all it took was being told by someone who had earned my trust that if I kept drinking I'd die, that I decided drinking wasn't that much fun. It's over a year now, things are clearing up a bit, but I still get the bruises.

King Donald isn't the sort to listen to anybody who tells him anything he doesn't want to hear, though. There's nobody with the authority to make him eat right (and his diet is terrible for his liver, if not alcohol bad). He'll plow through it until he literally falls on his ass and can't get up, or can't hide the symptoms any more. But as my trusted doctor also warned me, the longer it goes, the less likely it is to heal, the harder it will be, and the more likely I'll be to need a transplant. I suppose you skip the line for a transplant organ if you're the President but normally once you're around 80 you're not considered a good risk to get enough years out of your donor liver to justify giving it to you instead of someone younger, healthier, and/or more compliant with doctors' instructions.

So keep woofin' down those Big Macs, Donny. We'll see who gets to have that difficult conversation with St. Peter first.
