An immense weight on a great man

Zelenskyy and Trump both carry a great weight....but with Trump it's just because he's a fat fuck.
- Trump would be carrying the weight of the US and the free world, too.
  But he rejected the mantle, he didn't pick it up. He just pokes it sometimes, and points at it and talks about it as something in his possession.
  
  As with his life he wants all of the power and none of the responsibility
  
  I mean, he seems to spend no time off while dismantling democracy. I don't understand why people go so far to ruin other's lives, but not save them.
- Presidents normally age badly during their presidency due to stress. Look at George Bush in 2000 and compare him to 2008. He looks like hell, ditto Obama.
  Trump has barely any noticeable stuff happen. Whatever happened would have happened regardless to him just being 10 years older when he started campaigning in 2015. He thrives on the hate he receives.
  
  Obama is over 20 years older than me and I think he looks great. I think he stopped dying his hair during the presidency.
- Weight is one of those things that most people can largely change about themselves. I agree it's a lot harder to regulate your weight when you have conditions that reduce your mobility and make you burn far fewer calories like ME/CFS or fibromyalgia, but the basic principles of thermodynamics still apply.
  Trump isn't one of those people with a debilitating condition other than his age. He's genuinely an unpleasant glutton who lives on a diet of Big Macs and Diet Coke.
  
  Maybe he can't do anything about him being fat, but he absolutely could stop being a fuck.
  
  Trump might look fat but he doesn't weigh much - actually he's 99% hot air.
  
  I think we need to chill on the asshole shaming. You could hurt my wittle feelings.
  
  "Fat" means high body fat percentage, not just "weighs a lot".
  People with lots of muscle are categorized as obese with the regular BMI formulas, but that obviously doesn't apply to them.
