4. Trump's weight

NOTE: This is not a fat-shaming post. It's about facts.

This medical memo is propaganda.

There is no way on this planet that Trump weighs 239 lbs. None. The man is large! He does not exercise. He eats a terribly unhealthy diet.

Additionally, his pulse rate and especially his blood pressure are simply not believable. I also note that there are numerous metrics not addressed, such as cholesterol, etc.

As Commander-in-Chief, he probably ordered the doctor, a Naval Officer and a subordinate, to issue a favorable report.

Trump's a liar and an idiot and he does not weigh 239 lbs.

Oh and that cognitive test... get real.

The man spends 5 hours a day on executive time, I'm sure he can spare some to cheat on a test.

He's healthy as a horse, dammit. On the upside, if he's impeached, his family business is wrecked, and his kids go to prison he will have a long time to stew in his own juices over the "unfairness" of it all.

My father took one toward the end of his life. He did OK except for the visuospatial part, but he was already failing to recognize almost everyone beyond immediate family and major public figures.

As for Trump weighing 239 pounds, here's what Sports Illustrated has submitted without comment:
