Donald Trump Is 'Disappointed' in Vladimir Putin

Donald Trump sounded nasal in a new interview.
“They’re not Americans,” Trump continued. “They’re Russians and they’re Ukrainians. There’s thousands. It’s a war that makes no sense. And it would have never started if I were president and that’s what bothers me even more.” Trump yet again insisted the election was “totally rigged." “We’ll see what happens,” Trump added. “But I’m very disappointed in President Putin. I can say that. And we’ll be doing something to help people live. You know it’s not a question of Ukraine. It’s… help people live.”
Did Donald Trump Have a Stroke?
X users believe Donald Trump suffered a stroke.
X users were quick to pipe in, with one saying it “backs the stroke hypothesis” as “stroke patients can sound ‘nasally’ due to dysarthria and muscle weakness impacting the soft palate.”
“They sound ‘strained,’ ‘hoarse’ and ‘nasal or hyponasal,’” they continued. “So his voice actually continues to support the mild stroke position.”
“He’s struggling to breathe,” another person said. “Respiratory issues are indicative of a stroke. This along with his edema (swelling of the ankles) and cardiac problems are signs that the end is imminent.”
Another person surmised Trump has COVID, which would he explain why “he sounds congested."
