Neuro nurse. I suspect pontine stroke in April due to L leg brace and R facial weakness with continued lid lag. That same-site issue has bothered me, too. Clearly he's anticoagulated. Trump is right-handed and it seems to be his right hand that's bruised. I would avoid dominant hand procedures.

Only reason to use the hand would be if other veins are too poor to access. As a neuro RN, I believe he had a brainstem stroke due to L leg and R facial weakness. Likely due to clotting, he would be anticoagulated for prevention; hence, the bruising. He is at increased risk for stroke now.

His brainstem stroke in April was likely due to clot. He would be anticoagulated prophylactically, which would explain the bruising. The dorsal hand is used for few things, but they include blood draws, IVs, and joint injections (the last one ruled out here). Could include blood coagulability checks

Out of my past into his future.

The danger is in letting these frequent nonsensical blatherings become so normalized that they fade into the background as soon as they appear. There should be a running list on an electronic billboard in every city.

Holding up the "Look at me! I'm a narcissist!" sign again. Insight level zero.

Staple of my childhood!

I hope they're all in jail before the get to me.

Exactly.
