          That would be a remarkably old looking 13 year old if that was the case. Fillion was born in 71 and this movie came out in 84.

    If you look at the report they published Trump is listed as being 0.3 BMI points away from counting as obese which is hilariously convenient. On his blood analysis they even put his cholesterol levels as being normal when he’s an obese 80 year old that barely exercises.

        But then there’s that whole exchange from World Enough and Time that ends with this:

        DOCTOR: Please, listen to me. Look at me. Go on, look at me. That’s good. That’s very, very good. Now, do you see this mad woman sitting in this chair? Her name isn’t Doctor Who. My name is Doctor Who.

        NARDOLE: It isn’t, is it?

        DOCTOR: I like it.

        I know they’re doing a bit, but I think it provides adequate cover for proper geeks to nevertheless use the expression when it’ll provide shorthand clarity.

    Seems a bit excessive to have that many doctors present just to tell you you’re dead within a year. Maybe they’re all there to take bets on what finally takes him out. Will it be his heart? A stroke? Choking on a Big Mac? All of the above?

      Definitely going to suffer a massive coronary event in the next 2-3 months I bet. He’s actually stressing out because so many hate him, even amongst his former base, he thought a war with Iran would be easy, his own party and base are starting to realize this isn’t good. Add in what we’ve seen and heard of his medical issues, his ticket is about to explode.

        If this happens, I will buy hash oil, shape it into a fat old fascist, and dab the whole thing.

        I think you might be right about approval ratings stressing him out though. How much people like him and how much money he has are basically the only two things he’s capable of caring about.
