Let's discuss whether this kind of article should be allowed in the future, since this violates rule 2, it's only very tangentially relevant to politics.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I think there could be a reasonable discussion in the context of his mental competence. Worsening personal hygiene is a red flag for dementia, etc.
That said, the "hurr hurr smells liek butt" level of rhetoric is probably unproductive and shouldn't be condoned.
Still, it made me smile
If I wanted to see a bunch of adult politicians throwing kindergarten insults at each other I'd watch cspan.
“A president that smells bad is a weak president. My presidents should only smell of old spice and leather.”
I hear President Camacho smells like Axe body spray.
More like Brawndo. It's what constituents crave.
It's got electorates!
Hold on I'm baitin.
The Hank Hill handshake method of voting
I realize we can talk about multiple things at once, but I feel like this inconsequential stuff like odor and color is completely irrelevant. There can be an absolutely moral, helpful person who smells, looks orange, stands weird, has small hands, etc.
The problem with Trump isn't his odor or appearance-- it's that he's a genocidal maniac who's the figurehead for an organized and influential group of far-right extremists. Even if he smelled like roses, he'd still be bad.
I don't give a fuck how he smells. It's a non-issue.

I wonder if he's one of those guys that thinks washing your asshole is gay.
One of those guys? Is this a thing?
It's enough of an issue that Redd Foxx had a comedy special on record back in 1975 called "you gotta wash your ass"

Some people just don't know it's something they need to do, and perhaps become nose-blind: Though I've seen several social media recounts of male partners that think actually scrubbing their ass is weird.
You think he can reach his asshole?
"Hand daddy his washing rag!"
Why would he need to when republicans lick his ass clean non stop
There used to be a very coveted job in feudal England. The Groom of the Stool. Their job was to wipe the king's ass after he took a shit.
Saying Kinzinger farted on tv is hilarious because Rudy has 100% done that
Also not a denial
Also not the same as a constant stench.
Breaking: Old overweight sweaty man smells bad
I’ve been amazed that everybody is just kind of learning about this now.
When you spend all your time with Senators, campaign mega-donors, and the creepy sociopath lobbyists, I assume you kinda lose your sense for it.
He's also incontinent. Dude shits himself daily. Literally.
Not unusual for dudes pushing 80. Half the Senate is in diapers.
