Internet is saying he was a disaster at the West Point graduation today. Couldn't pronounce MacArthur's, messed up Ulysses Grant, could barely walk down a ramp ...

Don’t know about the glass, but the ramp thing is clearly the effect of his 2-3 inch shoe lifts (see also: centaur pose)

Watch his left leg vs right. The left leg is the one inching forward, the right leg barely bends.

He also purses his lips in deep concentration, like a cartoon monkey.

kind of steep ramp with no handrail. plus there's his famously poor eyesight that he's too vain to correct with glasses. sorry to disappoint, but there's no evidence of a stroke that I can see.
― A is for (Aimless), Saturday, 13 June 2020 23:46 (three years ago) link
The water glass. He can't lift the water to his mouth with his right hand and actually uses his left hand to tip the glass.

Really this needs to be a whole set of separate polls because I like my crust crispy, base chewy, cheese gooey and tomato hot. Except when the pizza is of a more American style then the cheese should have some brown and a crispy bits.

Understandable. Pizzas are generally circular; so is political discussion.
Both can be warmed-over; both can sometimes be cheesy. Neither should involve pineapple.

what the fuck
The ramp that I descended after my West Point Commencement speech was very long & steep, had no handrail and, most importantly, was very slippery. The last thing I was going to do is “fall” for the Fake News to have fun with. Final ten feet I ran down to level ground. Momentum!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 14, 2020

I know I've seen him do the same thing with a glass of water before a while ago, maybe during one of his rallies? I remember people commenting on it at the time
― Dan S, Monday, 15 June 2020 00:23 (three years ago) link
The time he did it before, he picked up the bottle with two hands, like an otter with a sippy cup. This was different, because he picked it up with one hand, but he needed the other hand to tip it back. I've never seen that in anybody before.
― Josh in Chicago, Monday, 15 June 2020 00:27 (three years ago) link
I’ve had to do that before when I was having a panic attack and my hands were shaking so hard I couldn’t handle the glass, but that’s pretty extreme

That last tweet rhymes neatly with Trump's no doubt faked affection for Citizen Kane, in which the second wife screams, "You don't love me. You want me to love you. 'Sure, I'm Charles Foster Kane, whatever you want, just name it and it's yours. But you've gotta love me!'"
