Whatever happened to authoritarians’ favorite talking point “if you have nothing to hide, then you have nothing to fear?”

Absolutely typical for a partial early physical done because you have some free time to devote to getting a partial early physical. I don’t know why you people keep making such a big deal out of every little thing.

Is this what the Trump campaign meant by “transparency”?.

If so: FAIL!!

Trustfulness at its finest

Microcosm of Trump’s idea of management/government “philosophy”: threats and fear.

Why did they sign it?

Good question.

Trump doesn’t pay them, and HIPAA already covers a patient’s privacy.

They had to promise not to disclose one little thing they saw. (Ahem)

I think I would have come back with a piece of paper saying that Trump would not take me to court.

That’s silly. We all have already seen his stubby little fingers…

Don’t we already all have non disclosure agreements with our Doctors and other services? Rump needs it so the medical personal won’t reveal the other things they found; hamberder wrappers etc.

I knew it. He demands one from everybody for everything.

Donnie was just trying to find a way to make the people who save his life pay for the privilege.
ETA: He’s gotta find $400 million, plus the vig, with a relative quickness.

Uh… yeah… see … The thing is that Super-Spreader has no way to enforce that NDA. Sure, he can sue but that would only underscore the coverup of his diseased carcass. He has far too much pride for that.

Next up, all his cult members will have to sign an NDA with their ballots. Which some of them might actually welcome, as then they would not have to admit voting for him.

Terrified of BLOTUS, I would guess.

I want to hear from the drs who refused to sign. How did that go down, I wonder?

Why would someone need an NDA when they’re protected by HIPAA already?
