It's good to take a moment to relax every now and then. (media.kbin.social)

What is the context behind this? Did I miss something bad that happened to this asshole?

He fell in public a few weeks ago too, but this just happened. Circling the drain finally.

Now we just need Kissinger to die sorry.

He apparently blanked out while speaking - folks are speculating it was a stroke.

[–] arin@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Here's hoping it's a severe one.

You definitely see the moment something happens, but this seems too subtle for a stroke.

Strokes are weird. "Brain attack" is an apt term--some folks barely notice them, some folks drop dead in moments.

He had a mini stroke or something on the podium today

Yeah he apparently started making a statement to the press and only got about 5 words in before freezing and going blank, a classic show of senility.
