[URL=.html][IMG][/IMG][/URL]
Like Clinton, Trump has released minimal information, most notably in the form of a December 2015 letter of a few paragraphs from his personal physician, a gastroenterologist, that described his blood pressure and lab results as "astonishingly excellent" while suggesting a President Trump would be the "healthiest individual ever elected."
Dr. Sanjay Gupta, CNN's chief medical correspondent, found much of that language surprising and, in some cases, almost comically lacking in objective data.
"I don't even know what to make of this letter," he told CNN's Ashleigh Banfield on Tuesday. "Whether you are a doctor or not, that degree of hyperbole and these words being used is very unusual. People don't write like that. ... 'Strength and stamina are extraordinary' -- what does that mean, exactly?"

(7,768 posts)And it shows. He's delusional and delerious. I just hope he makes it to the election before he collapses! He's so red-faced and angry, his blood pressure must be off the charts. Hang in there Donald, just a few more months!

(50,528 posts)Remember the Trump Steaks ad? "Believe me, I understand steaks: It's my favorite food." And he enjoys USDA Prime steak, which is the fattiest kind.
If he actually (Cthulhu forbid) were to get elected president, he'd be required to undergo an annual physical by a Navy doctor at Bethesda Naval Hospital. I can just imagine the results: "The National Naval Medical Center extends its sincere condolences to First Lady Trump, whoever she is this week. We realize he's still alive at this instant, but give it a couple of months."

(6 posts)That should be an immediate red flag. Seriously though, any person with that much hate in his body can't be in good health.
But of course the media will just go after HRC's health, regardless of what aliments Trump suffers from. What hypocrites.
