There are new concerns this morning about the deteriorating health of convicted felon Donald Trump due to his appearance in a campaign video he released Wednesday in which he urged his supporters to vote any way they possibly can, including via absentee ballot, despite his claims that method is corrupt and rife with cheating.
The video, which was posted on social media by PatriotTakes, features what appears to be spit flying from the disgraced ex-president’s mouth.
At a another point in the video, Trump even froths at the mouth.
Here are the videos that were flagged and posted by PatriotTakes.

Web md “Stroke. Finally, foaming at the mouth is sometimes a symptom of stroke. For this reason, strokes that lead to this symptom are often confused with seizures. To complicate things further, strokes can also trigger seizures.”
Later today, Trump will probably claim the video has been manipulated with artificial intelligence and is fake. After all, he can’t stand it when anyone makes fun of him. So be sure to share the videos far and wide all over the internet.
Academy Award-winning actor Robert DeNiro held a press conference outside the Manhattan courthouse where former president Donald Trump is on trial for allegedly committing election fraud this morning as closing arguments were taking place inside, and he brilliantly handled a pro-Trump heckler who tried to interrupt his statement.
Accompanied by former Capitol Police officers Harry Dunn and Michael Fanone, who battled rioters on Jan. 6, 2021, DeNiro remarked, “On January 6th, while Republican lawmakers despicably tried to keep the loser Trump, the loser Trump, in the White House, and Trump-inspired insurrectionists stormed the Capitol, brave men and women from law enforcement put their lives on the line to defend this country. These guys are the true heroes. They stood and put their lives on the line for these low lives, for Trump.”
“They lied under oath,” a Trump supporter insisted.
“Who lied under oath?” DeNiro asked. “What are you telling me?”
“Those two traitors behind you,” the Trump supporter said.
“You got to, I don’t know, I don’t even know how to deal with you, my friend,” DeNiro replied. “I don’t even know how to deal with you. They stood there. They didn’t have to.”
“They stood there and fought for us, for you. For you.”
The Trump supporter told DeNiro, “They weren’t fighting for me.”
“No, they fought for you, buddy,” DeNiro fired back. “You’re able to stand right here now. They are the true heroes.”
Disgraced and multiply-indicted former president Donald Trump nearly toppled over during a Friday evening rally in St. Paul, Minnesota, and he immediately suggested the contractor who had constructed the dais was to blame.
According to Newsweek, a video clip of the moment was shared online by the Biden-Harris 2024 campaign.
As you’ll see in the video, the minute Trump begins lurching to his left and grabs the podium, he turns his ire to someone else, even though it may have been his staffers who put the dais in place.
“You know, this is the worst platform,” Trump said. “Who put this stage up?” “It keeps tilting further left,” he added. “Like too many other things.”What a crappy contractor this was.”
The Biden-Harris HQ team noted, “A feeble Trump nearly falls down on stage after he leans on his podium too hard and then goes on an angry rant calling his event workers ‘crappy.'”

During his Friday evening speech in St. Paul, Trump also said that while he was willing to debate President Joe Biden, he thinks Biden should be required to take a drug test before the debate begins.
“I just wanna debate this guy, but you know, I’m gonna demand a drug test too, by the way. I am. No, I really am. I don’t want him coming in like the State of the Union. He was high as a kite.”
The video has now gone viral with over 218,000 views and nearly 1,000 shares. Some of the comments from Twitter are also worthy of notice.
Louisiana Republican Sen. John Kennedy had a deranged meltdown yesterday during a hearing of the Senate Budget Committee and verbally attacked a witness for daring to retweet a posting on social media in which Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) was called a “sick fuck” by climate protesters in March.
According to Mediaite, “Manchin was confronted by a group of climate activists at Harvard University, where one protester called him a ‘sick fuck’ before he was forcibly removed from the room. Supran retweeted a post by the organization responsible for disrupting Manchin’s visit at the university.”
BREAKING: we just called Joe Manchin a sick fuck. We humiliated him in front of a herd of Harvard elites. He squared up. We held firm. Barbaric murderer, hideous fiend, he torches humanity and laughs. pic.twitter.com/1ajrQsKnbJ
The witness, Dr. Geoffrey Supran, Professor of Environmental Science & Policy and Director of Climate Accountability Lab at the University of Miami, told Kennedy, “Big oil is the new big tobacco. As a scholar of disinformation, I do not use the word lie’ lightly. But no other word adequately describes the oil industry’s brazen efforts to mislead the public about its history of misleading the public.”
Rather than engage Supran on the issue of climate change and public policy, Kennedy tried to pick a fight with him.
“Are you going to call me a sick fuck?”
Supran countered.
“This form of character assassination is characteristic of the kinds of propaganda techniques of the fossil fuel industry.”
Kennedy got his comeuppance on social media, where many noted that he is indeed a sick fuck.
Well, now that you ask Senator Kennedy— yes …yes we are. Because you are.
@SenJohnKennedy you are a United States Senator. Act it. This performative provocation may get you “views,” but it cedes the credibility and destroys the guardrails of decorum expected of the body. It’s not all about you.

Careful what questions you ask, Sen. Kennedy. You might not like the answers.
Hours after failed one-term former president Donald Trump gave his mealy-mouthed statement regarding his current position on the issue of abortion and restricting the right of a woman to choose, the Biden-Harris 2024 campaign released an ad that quickly went viral online and has Republicans running scared as they desperately try to distance themselves from new anti-choice laws being implemented in states such as Arizona.
NBC News reports the campaign ad deals with a Texas woman who sought to have an abortion and nearly died after she was denied one.
The 60-second ad, which first aired Monday on MSNBC, focuses on Amanda Zurawski, a Texas woman who sued the state after, she said, she almost died from a miscarriage. In the video, Zurawski and her husband, Josh, discuss how they had started buying things for the baby while Amanda was pregnant, including a baby book.
“At 18 weeks, Amanda’s water broke,” the ad’s text said. “She had a miscarriage.”
As the couple continues to recount memories of the pregnancy, text on the screen reads, “Because Donald Trump killed Roe v. Wade, Amanda was denied standard medical care to prevent infection, an abortion.”
But that’s just the beginning of Amanda’s nightmare, as she eventually wound up rushed to intensive care after suffering from sepsis. She nearly died on two separate occasions and may now never be able to have children, all because the state of Texas passed a restrictive anti-abortion law.
The ad ends with this line: “Donald Trump did this.”
Indeed, Trump did play a role in Amanda Zurawski’s ordeal. He appointed three right-wing justices to the U.S. Supreme Court who ruled that states can tell women what they can and cannot do with their bodies.
As you’d expect, Republicans are now trying to distance themselves from the growing political firestorm that has been caused by their draconian laws, the Guardian reported from Arizona, the latest state to decide women have no right to make decisions about their reproductive health.
Republicans in the state took a surprising stance for a party that has historically championed abortion restrictions – they denounced the decision.
Some of the criticisms of the Tuesday ruling came from politicians who had previously supported the 1864 ban or cheered the end of Roe v Wade.
Trump and every Republican who played a role in the anti-abortion movement now have to own the morass they’ve created and pay a political price with voters, the majority of whom say the government doesn’t belong in private decisions made by a woman and her doctor.
Trump and his GOP did this. Never forget that fact.
