Donald Trump has made a bizarre confession about his own health at an event at the White House.

The US president was addressing a group of firefighters when he went on a tangent about personal vices.

“If you don’t drink or you don’t take drugs or if you don’t smoke, there’s no problem,” Trump said.

“I have other problems, I have some very severe problems. But those are not one of them.”

“I don’t want to add them to the list, 'cos if I did I guarantee I wouldn’t be here right now.”

    This is no confession. Just Trump wanting to be the best, biggest, first in everything his talks take him.

    If he was talking to child-molesters, I’m sure he’d find something to brag to them about too. This is just him bragging that he is the best at being sick, without really thinking about what he just said

      While I’m with you on general terms, I think it would be better he dropped dead after the midterms, say, by getting a stroke when seeing the results.

      Because at the moment, he is the biggest boat anchor around the GOPs neck, so no reason to lose him and let them breathe.

    Honestly it’s kinda sad, he could have been such an advocate for healthy living and staying sober. He could have fought for treatment for addicts.

      You don’t even need context… Everyone on earth knows who you’re referring to.

      I’d imagine this is what it was like when hitler was alive…

    Sometimes he has nightmares about all the kids he raped coming back to publicly expose him as the pedo he is; and his creeping dementia causes momentary confusion that maybe it’s real and he’ll go to jail.

    But then Natalie changes his diaper and puts him back to bed with a kiss on his forehead—and as he drifts off he remembers his supporters don’t care if he raped children and he can sleep soundly again.

    The end

    My wife works with the elderly. Her current client is a 96 year old man who only has a few days to live due to colon cancer. It’s a hard job and has taken a toll on my wife even if she puts on a brave face. I will say, she is stronger than me. I couldn’t deal with something like that and I consider myself a tough guy.

    Point is. TRUMP IS 80 MOTHERTRUCKING YEARS OLD! What is it was America and electing geriatrics!

      The geriatrics have no problem promising to punish marginalised people. When your world view is based on racism and intolerance that seems a good choice

      I got that too. He’s speaking about vices and sex is considered a vice. Are we about to get new Epstein files?

    From his lips to god’s ears. As an atheist I will be happy to convert if god makes it obvious enough.
