Oh, bullshit.
He’s overweight, eats fast food all the time which means his cholesterol has to be high
Apparently this was not a mental health exam.
It was also obviously bullshit.
I’d love to be a fly on the wall when his handlers interview his potential “personal physicians”
Seems credible, except for the part where Dr. Jackson misspells his own name.
Maddow’s show showed a statement that was put out about his exam signed by the doctor. But, the signature read: Dr. Ronnie Jackson. His name is Ronny, not Ronnie. So, who put out that statement???
Looks like Karl Rove’s handwriting.
Donald Trump is morbidly obese by any definition. His diet is well reported and his age is a matter of record. This ‘doctor’ is apparently a quack.
Sorry, but anyone that is over weight like Trump is not in excellent health. His doctor should be fined for malpractice.
It is extremely unlikely that a medical doctor wrote that note. Far more likely is that Steven Miller, or one of his other gangster staff members wrote it. Instead of being upset about this, I suggest we just look at the bright side: he may actually be on the verge off a cardiovascular emergency.
Spelled his name wrong? Something’s fishy here. Trying to influence the results? And wouldn’t he have waited until he got to see any test results before making such a definitive statement?
Speaking of fishy, from the doctor’s bio:
Rear Adm. Ronny L. Jackson is a native of Levelland, Texas, and graduated from Texas A&M University in 1991 with a Bachelor of Science in Marine Biology.
Looks like he got to put that degree to good use.
Exactly. When Donald Trump was merely a fake billionaire con man, he would have his own Medical Report typed and delivered to Dr. Borenstein for him to sign while Trump’s minions waited down on Third Avenue with the Limousine idling. Now that he is Le Roi Soleil, Donald Trump Tweets Dr. Jackson’s statement for him, and mispells the Doctor’s name. Showing total lack of respect for high ranking Naval Officer. Of course, Trump never served in the Military so he has no idea how indecorous it is to Tweet a fake self serving statement on Dr. Jackson’s behalf.
And I hear Brezhnev is doing very well getting over his cold.
First and foremost, the statement was put out by the White House, not the physician. Second, Dr. Ronny Jackson is a military doctor and who is the head of the military-IQ45. Dr. Jackson can be ordered to present a false narrative in terms of IQ’s health as long as it isn’t illegal.
Only is an alternative universe can a man who is:
71 years old
-is visibly 25-40 pounds overweight. Visibly bloated from fluid retention.
-has terrible jaundice colored skin which is why he uses spray tan.
-eyes are bloodshot and yellowing in some photos.
-daily meals consist on cheeseburgers, fries and KFC.
-drinks close to a dozens cans on Diet Coke a day.
-cannot walk 9 holes of a golf course.
-in giving a speech is winded after bout 5 minutes or less.
-gets confused during speech which he covers by repeating himself.
-gets confused and walks off when doing public paper signings and has to be led back to the desk.
-walks off Air Force 1 and can’ find the car even though it’s right next to the plane.
Yet he is in excellent health? If this is the quality of care our US military personnel and veterans receive it’s no wonder there are so many chronically ill veterans and military personnel in our armed forces.
Presumably he drew blood for tests. Even if Trump were in perfect health, the doctor couldn’t responsibly say anything until seeing bloodwork.
Also, a routine physical could include some other tests, taken at a later date, as determined by the interview and results of the first series of tests.
One thing in Trump’s favor: being at the top of the food chain really does reduce stress. First violinists live longer than second violinists, and conductors live longer than any of the players in an orchestra.
I get the feeling the results were exaggerated. BMI is admittedly a highly flawed manner to gauge obesity, but it’s clear the man is extremely overweight, has a terrible diet, and refuses to even walk 400 yards, let alone exercise.
If I were Dr. Jackson, I would be outraged that a statement had been put out in my name that was demonstrably false.
ETA: 25-40 pounds overweight? I’d say more like 75-100.
Why would a doctor wait til Tuesday to make detailed commentary if he had it all but do a blanket remark. Makes little sense to me.
Blood work? How fast does that come back? Did he do a stress test? Were the results reviewed immediately? Urine analyst? Before questioning veracity, what about simple timing?
I read that the White House will determine what information is released.
They may think that saying the President is in excellent health will do, while at the same time not disclosing, e.g., his blood pressure, but obviously that won’t work.
Even a conductor who is accused of conspiring with the drum section to make him look better, had numerous affairs with violinists, and laundered his money with his socks?
And the fact that he was also Obama’s physician for a time? You can see how anything negative is going to be played.
