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.
good morning
He apparently blanked out while speaking - folks are speculating it was a stroke.
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.
good morning
Here's hoping it's a severe one.
He had a mini stroke or something on the podium today
Thoughts and prayers that he’s suffering 🙏
Maybe a TIA?
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.
