Internet Speculates After Trump Appears to Have Wet Pants at Tennessee Disaster Meeting

https://www.politicalflare.com/2020/03/internet-speculates-after-trumps-appears-to-have-wet-pants-at-tennessee-disaster-meeting/

Trump visited tornado-ravaged disaster areas in Tennessee on Friday, just days after the twisters that whipped across the state left 25 dead and dozens more injured…and also prayed with the response team where he appeared to have wet pants.

His final scene when he's walking away from Michael Moore. It looked as if he had worn them an extra couple of hours.

It was kind of sad that it represents his last movie appearance. Well, it would be sad if he weren't such a jerk about that dead little girl.

Which brings me to the biggest jerk of all...John "Depends" Barron.

... I was my Mom's caregiver in her earliest stages of Alzheimer's... when she wast still working. She was also a malignant narcissist trying desperately to compensate for what she surely knew what was happening to her mind, but would never admit to anyone...

Once, at an important event she was attending... I had to take her aside and let her know that she had some sort of accident and needed to go change her pants.... She was embarrassed, angry, aggressive with me... I was trying to protect her, and did my best... But, I really got hell for pointing this out. She said I was undermining her, and blamed the whole thing on me.

I suspect everyone around Trump saw what the deal was, but hesitated to do anything for the fear of retaliation. Once you point out such an obvious, undeniable issue to a narcissist... You are toast.

... When I moved to TX to help my mother... 30 years since I last lived with her before going to college... I was so baffled by her behavior... constant lying (for no readily apparent reason), obsession about how others perceived her, needing to be the center of attention always, etc. I learned about narcissism and realized she was what was screwed up about our family when I was young... My mother's behavior is EXACTLY how Donald Trump behaves today... Childlike, deflecting blame, desperate to be praised... Down to the same body language.

Then I realized how this fucked me up... I realized how much of a narcissist I was based on parenting. Luckily, I was able to self-reflect and learn and change my behaviors... But, everything that Donald Trump does seems so familiar to me... I never imagined someone NPD would BECOME PRESIDENT... It's dangerous for us all. Not their fault, they are not evil, but they have a simple, basic, predictable, childlike drive to protect their reputation at all costs... without concern for how that affects others.

Narcissists are charming, and they do have an uncanny ability to bring in a circle of supporters to ride their coattails... A form of co-dependency... Trump's team are a part of his disorder... Narcissism is so toxic, because it affects others more than it affects them. I believe Rick Wilson's phrase... "Everything Trump [or any narcissist] touches dies."

Not sure if I understand your comment...

My behavior has been quite narcissistic for years, because I was raised by a malignant narcissist. Unlike my mother or Donald Trump, I am self aware, have empathy for my fellow human beings, and able to reflect upon how my learned behaviors affected others... and have self-corrected over the years. Or, at least I dearly hope I am less of an asshole now than I once was in my youth.

I don't believe malignant narcissists are intentionally evil... It's an incurable personality disorder, perhaps a disability like ADHD... I don't know... I now realize that my late mother wasn't evil, or had ill will towards others.... It's just that her behaviors (like Donald Trump's) were all about protecting their fragile ego against their deep-down innate fear of shame... Unfortunately, to the detriment of those around them.

hearing a wet, squishing sound in his shoes whenever he walked. They weren't sure what it was, but it's possible that it was urine leaking down his leg into his shoes.

Does anyone else remember hearing about that? It's true, but it didn't get a lot of attention at the time. He must smell like something awful. Between the fatty, greasy food, the diapers, the leaking urine, the drugs, the flop sweat. What a sickening excuse for a human being.

that it was "wet squishing sounds" when he shifted in his seat. They must have cracked down on the internet, because searching DuckDuckGo for "trump wet squish sounds" had NO results related to MF45.

This story was on DU, one of his disgruntled employees said to hell with the NDA and stated that he wears Depends™

He can't even control his bodily functions. What a joke!

There's a photo of him from the front and his pants are dry. If he really pissed himself, and his pants were wet, he'd have himself taken backstage or something to change. I think he'd rather be burned alive at the stake than be humiliated. Humiliation is his greatest fear and my fervent hope is to someday see him absolutely humiliated. Excuse my language, but I hate that motherfucker and hope that he suffers some day. A lot.

A shambling buffoon lumbering through an appearance to which he has no emotional or intellectual connection...with wet pants. I so hope it's a wardrobe malfunction - that his Underoos weren't up to the task. Am I so wrong for hoping that?

The image reminds me of Doug Stanhope's anecdote about Jake Lamotta.

If his family gave a shit, they'd be stepping up to control his image and prevent humiliation. Remember how protective Nancy Reagan got when it started to become obvious Ronnie was losing it. Reagan's cabinet was also evil but highly competent at managing public appearances.

Trump has always been such a dumpster fire of a human, he only draws people who care only about status and power, and he can't tolerate ever being questioned, so there is no one left in his orbit who knows how to run a government when the actual leader is obviously IN ABSENTIA. Personally, there's no one willing to try to override him for his own well-being if it means a dip in their own access to power.

I think he has the absolute right to make water anywhere. People don’t talk too much about Article 2 of the constitution which clearly makes him immune to incontinence criticism

What will follow is lots of Repugs denying it, then hedging, then admitting it but saying it wasn’t urine, then admitting it was urine but it doesn’t rise to the level of adult diapers.
