This is an actual tweet from the current President of the United States:
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 27, 2019
You tell me. Has he lost his mind? For the record, I think he has.
Twitter, naturally, lost its mind:

The President of the United States just sent this out, as perfectly normal national leaders often do https://t.co/1c3hPdriiU— Tom Nichols (@RadioFreeTom) November 27, 2019

I really wish they would ask before photoshopping onto my gym selfies. https://t.co/S79mtfnTAy— Harold Pollack (@haroldpollack) November 27, 2019
We don’t need any more proof that you’re delusional, thanks anyways though. https://t.co/53QGDk3WmR— Scott Dworkin (@funder) November 27, 2019

The past three years are giving me a headache. And I feel slightly nauseous. More than slightly sometimes. https://t.co/tHSbaz71Zm— David Rothkopf (@djrothkopf) November 27, 2019

"Trump tweets doctored photo of his head on Sylvester Stallone's body, unclear why." https://t.co/EDr5Pt1Dzu— Kyle Griffin (@kylegriffin1) November 27, 2019
Besides the fact this is obviously the posting of an emotionally disturbed, maladjusted, insecure man child, who alarmingly got elected POTUS🤦🏽♀️😳— Tara Setmayer (@TaraSetmayer) November 27, 2019
It’s clear Trump is projecting after all the questions abt his health lately. First the insane rally comments, now this.
He’s sick🤨 https://t.co/PTJ1dqrauD
My guess is that White House staffers and possibly Trump family members are frantically trying to get Donald to delete this tweet. Stay tuned.
And one more thing. That's not really a picture of Donald's body (no kidding.) It's Sylvester Stallone:
President Trump tweeted a doctored photo Wednesday that showed his head superimposed on the body of the actor Sylvester Stallone, who was shirtless and wearing boxing attire. The image appeared to have been taken from promotional materials for “Rocky III,” one in a series of movies focused on the boxing career of the fictional Rocky Balboa, which debuted in 1982.
It was not clear what inspired Trump’s tweet. A White House spokesman did not immediately respond to a request for comment. (From the Washington Post. Kyle Griffin's tweet, above, links to the article.)
Update: My Congressman weighs in:
And I can't resist posting this:

On top of all the other weirdness here, does the President realize that Rocky actually stood up to Moscow? https://t.co/v3JJdip0SF— Raja Krishnamoorthi (@CongressmanRaja) November 27, 2019

... which brings us back to: What was he thinking? W.T.F. was he thinking? What did he think this was going to accomplish? It's very, very strange.
Update #2 on Thanksgiving morning. I was wrong above. The tweet was never deleted and in fact, the official White House account retweeted it. The twitterverse spent the day digging up pictures of Donald proving that he doesn't have a body like Rocky:

He wasn't even 239 then. That was some serious bullshit from Dr. Jackson. https://t.co/ds56pCUrvr— Tom Nichols (@RadioFreeTom) November 28, 2019
Update #3 on Friday morning. The official Twitter account of the Trump campaign wants us to believe that Donald's picture wasn't photoshopped:
Washington Post claims - without evidence - that @realDonaldTrump shared a “doctored” photo. https://t.co/iOvNdsFJIc— Team Trump (@TeamTrump) November 27, 2019
Twitter fought back:
This Rocky photoshop is specifically from “Rocky III,” the one where Rocky immediately loses. pic.twitter.com/cmJ8onpfcI— Full Frontal (@FullFrontalSamB) November 27, 2019
