Trump Gives Conflicting Reason For Hospital Visit As His Meltdown Over Stroke-Gate Continues

Oh, now, I differ with Mr. Trump on many issues but this is splitting hairs. Begin the physical, complete the physical, who has time to keep track of which is which? The point is he was rushed to the hospital with his doctor in the vehicle to do a partial physical in anticipation of a busy year. Now you tell one.

I’d like to suggest an amended headline:

“Trump Lies About Hospital Visit…”

Car, hospital, EEG, blood thinner, can’t remember the fifth, or anything that happened in the past three hours.

I still think it was an emergency procedure to remove “something” from “somewhere” that he’d rather not discuss, for understandable reasons. He’s a man of many “interests”, as we all know.

Maybe there is a reason that the word “stroke” does not quite apply … maybe “seizure” ??

Not mine. Can’t remember where I saw it.

So at this point - we’re fairly sure it was a stroke? Likely a ‘motor only’ stroke?

Here’s an interesting take by a stroke survivor - a physician.
