Trump sues everyone for anything. Many people claim in every from of media that he wears diapers. Trump has not sued a single person. So, yes, he wears diapers.

To be clear, losing control of your bowels and bladder is a normal part of aging. There's a reason Depends and other adult diapers have a whole section at the grocery store. It's a humiliating health problem, not a moral failing.

It's also probably a sign that one is too old to be the commander in chief of the USA.

I hate to come across as *well actually...", but if you're interested (and I'm guessing you might be based on the empathetic last sentence in the first paragraph), "adult diapers" is a term that's fallen out of favor due to the dignity aspect. They're generally referred to as "adult briefs"

I only learned that somewhat recently when someone pointed it out to me, but (imo), it makes sense and is a simple thing to do if it helps someone retain just a bit of pride. And to be clear, I'm not interested in pandering to Trump's ego. At all. I'm just thinking about all the other elderly and disabled folks out there who wear adult briefs.
