Donald Trump’s tiredness, recent MRI and hand bruise suggest he may be taking medication to treat Alzheimer’s disease, according to a “curious” California Democrat.

Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove, D-Calif., tweeted that Trump is showing signs he’s taking the Alzheimer’s disease drug Leqembi.

“The Alzheimer’s drug Leqembi:- Is administered through an infusion (for example, through the hand)- Can cause swelling, bleeding, or fluid leakage in the brain, requiring regular MRIs- Can cause tiredness,” Kamlager-Dove tweeted along with a picture of Trump’s hand bruise. “Curious.”

    Dude’s 79. Waking up and getting out of bed is a major medical crisis.

      My great granddad lived to 93 in his own home, fully independent until his ticker gave out. 79 doesn’t have to be frail and feebleminded. Of course there’s the genetic component but living an active, rewarding life does wonders.

      I’d think it’s more than just being older. It’s the fact he treated himself like shit. I’m surprised he even made it this long, I think the average age for a McDonald’s face stuffer is much younger than this. Like late 60s for the heart to give out.
