Either he's got migraines or my bet is arteritis (very common in overweight men in their 70s). If the Bizarro World Dude wasn't treating that (likely autoimmune) inflammation, the risk for TIA and stroke are orders of magnitude higher.

And he's got his pill rolling hand posture again.

including their weight (Rosie O'Donnell, for example). He "grades" women on their looks - gropes them if he thinks they're attractive enough; claims he didn't grope them because they were too ugly. As a general rule I don't like fat-shaming but I'll make an exception for him. He's a very vain man who feels he has the right to trash other people's looks, especially women's; while in fact he's old and orange and flabby and blubbery and fat. He looks like an orange manatee.

it makes all people that are overweight feel horrible and makes them convinced that nobody likes them because of their weight. That, because of their weight, they are worth of the scorn or others and not worthy of love or kindness.

causes those that you don't dislike that are overweight feel horrible about themselves, right?
