If you read the article you would see it claims he has smelled since the 80s.

Sorry I raised questions about your hot take, im sure i wasnt operating with enough information to fairly judge you. But unfortunately i dont have the mental capacity to consider anything that isnt a "feeling" conveyed by an article headline and the picture that accompanies it.

I can't tell if you really thought I was really out here to post "hot takes" or if that's simply the limit of your ability to process other people's questions. In any case, thanks for the clarification. This will no longer be addressing you, so feel free to go be angry somewhere else.

If true, it's a long standing issue. And weird that it's only being heavily brought up this election cycle. Perhaps last time the idea of Trump presidency was so far-fetched that it wasn't deemed worth it? But it's so easy that, if you're going to sling mud like most political parties do, you'd have no reason not to use it from last time.

Dont call people "high minded" for disregarding body odor as a politically relevant discussion.
