I am sick of all this anti-flatuism

So the big orange turd farts? I fart, everybody farts. Let's not make fun of the open pustule on humanity for blowing some gas out of his enormous, diapered ass.
We are better than that. Can't we give the corrupt, fascist pile of dog shit a break an let his natural body functions, hampered by drugs and a horrendous diet, rip a few.

The point isn't that the monstrosity is his own whoopee cushion or that his diet of KFC and Diet Coke makes him gaseous, noisy, and putrid. The point is that it's not something he's ever cared to control and that people are pointing it out and laughing at him in a situation where he has no control over anything.

Michael Forbes (Scottish farmer he tried to destroy, including cutting off his drinking water) told us what to do 8 years ago: just keep insulting him, he'll end up in a padded cell.

I'll tell you a little secret, those of you who are younger: once you hit 75, you don't sneak those fars out in polit company because it's nearly impossible, you lose muscle tone all over as you age. It's gonna come out and sometimes it coms out as a thunderclap. Most of us aren't on a child's diet so we don't stink the joint up, but only a complete clod would laugh at an elder for farting in public without a very, very good reason.

Having a wannabe dictator who tried to kill our country and steal the remains out from under us is a damned good reason. Ordinary elders, even if they're TFG zombies, should be lett to poot in peace.

It isn't that he has uncontrolled expulsions. It is that he doesn't give a damn how this or any other obnoxious behavior or verbal abuse or any other atrocious habit of his impacts OTHERS.

but recognize the possibility of other inclusions in the pressurized release of digestive gasses

I reached that certain age when I went on diabetes meds that encouraged me to consider absorbent protection.

Thankfully, my gut adjusted to the meds over a couple of months and I don't need to continue with that.

The fact that TSF apparently is known for a robust fecal stench surrounding him would appear to be a newsworthy bit of information, especially as his campaign has continuously attacked Biden for his age related infirmities.

or attempt to "contain" such expulsions to the extent possible. I'd bet he's never done any of the previous in his entire highly entitled life.

It isn't that he has normal bodily functions. It is that he is an overwhelming boor about it--just as he is everything else.

So, I think anyone who takes this discussion personally, should absolutely NOT. I find it rare for anyone to EARN the vitriol and overt mocking that TSF has and does every damned day.

Girl brings her new beau home for dinner with the family.

Middle of dinner he trumps one out. He expected silence but let out a roaring sound.

Girl’s dad looks under the table where the dog is curled up and says “Buck…”.

Beau thinks he’s got it made…they’re gonna blame the dog. So he relaxes and trumps a few more loudly, each time the dad calling out the dog.

Finally after a particularly egregious trump, dad looks under the table and says “God damnit Buck…get out from under there before he shits all over ya”.

It says something about a person's lack of regard for others when he/she doesn't take corrective measures. Drink some fucking Pepto or swallow a Beano or something. One needn't inflict others with such smell, plenty of remedies are available, but Trump obviously doesn't care about anyone but himself. So others must live with his stink.

in your assertions that this is easily correctable or contained - and/or that there are 'plenty of available remedies'. Not really. Regardless - almost sure the OP was an attempt at humor - not medical observation or diagnosis.

Or are they assigning the stink from his hours-old fecal matter filling his diaper to "farts"? Is it an assumption of farting based on the fact that so few adults sit in a public area for an extended time with an adult-size-bowel-full of excrement directly under their butts? Fart smells dissipate relatively quickly compared to a pile of manure. These are the truly important questions we all must ask.

Describe what’s goin on and why.

Describe what he wears: diapers, colostomy bags, whatever.

Describe how often he needs to change or clean those things to keep himself healthy as possible in his condition.

If there’s a real problem, accommodations will be made.

I’m human. I’m ALWAYS going to laugh at farts. But see, the jury is human, too. So let him take care of what he needs to take care of.

Making derogatory remarks about a leader or ex-leader you hate has a long history.

I remember hearing of a report at the time that an autopsy showed major internal corruption in a particular dead leader. (*)
Obviously a work of fiction, Kings don't get autopsies.

This particular leader was reported to weigh 25 stone later in life, have a bad diet and be totally paranoid.
Sound familiar?

(*) King Henry the 8th.
