      Totally normal to have 3 annual checkups in a year. Nothing to see here.

    2. Doctor showing Trump the picture of a squirrel: “Do you know what this is?”

      Trump: “That’s an elephant.”

      so what, no one except the doc will know the results. By the way, where are the Epstein files?

    4. Can’t wait for the official medical report to state that he has the stamina of a 25-year-old and grew two inches taller since his last visit.

    5. Cue the inevitable ‘I passed the cognitive test, they said they’ve never seen anyone ace it like me’ speech next week.

      Love how everyone said the problem with Biden was that he was old and not mentally all there anymore, and then the country turned around and elected someone who is old and not mentally all there anymore.

      amphetamines can only carry the body so long. when they stop working its downhill fast

      Oldest, stupidest, and delusional. He checks all three boxes, a true DEI hire. Just proves the US is inclusive.

      These fuckers are also doing everything they can to slow down and cut funding to Walter Reed. So the very place keeping this turd alive shouldn’t be used for anyone else! That’s the GOP way.

    10. complete_data75 on

      But according to him, his doctor said he would live to be 200

      There’s no way he’d lie about that, right?

      No President has ever had 3 checkups in a year before! The doctors keep calling me back to show their colleagues, they can’t believe it!

    12. GUARANTEED that he publicly claims something outlandish about how great his health is this week when asked!!! It’s 100%!!! I’d even put my money on him claiming something about how they keep bringing him back because he’s the healthiest & mentally SHARPIE-st POTUS & 80+ year old in history!

      Check up? What are they checking, the current state of his decomposition?

    14. Upstairs-Egg on

      So old, so fucking moronic, and so worthless. Trump is punishing the world with his existence.

    15. AccomplishedBrain309 on

      Never saw anyone that needed a checkup from the neck up, so often!

    16. I, for one, am looking forward to not having the oldest president in power anymore.

    17. Not only the oldest, but also the most felonious president ever elected as well.

    18. He takes a dementia drug via infusions in his hand, this drug has the side effect of brain bleed and stroke risk. He had a not-insignificant stroke last year and while he has more or less recovered, they still need to perform advanced imaging periodically to see if both the dementia is getting worse and if he has any other complications from the medication.

      Overall, no one would be surprised if he had a random serious medical event, he’s into the actuary tables and has a famously unhealthy lifestyle. On the other hand, he also receives the treatment he needs and is at least moderately active via golfing. Some days it seems like he is barely hanging on but other days he seems more or less “fine”, his schedule is as light as it has ever been and most of his (short) appearances are just “play the hits” regurgitating talking points that he can pretty much do in his sleep.

      It reminds me a bit of the singer Glen Campbell who had Alzheimer’s but was still able to go on a final tour. There’s a documentary about it and it’s fascinating how even as the disease progressed to where he couldn’t tell you what day it was, he was still capable of getting on stage and doing his show. Seems a similar dynamic here. Trump can do his ranting babbling stump speech stuff and read prompter but behind the scenes is almost certainly significantly worse.

      I wish he didn’t go to the hospital so often, especially considering how he, his doctors and every single Republican flatly claim he’s in perfect health.

    20. Bossman_Mike on

      Walter Reed has never met such a healthy President full of so much vim and vigour. The doctors there are going to end up reassessing everything they thought they knew about medical science.

    21. photon1701d on

      Trump will say “the Doctor wanted to remind me how I am in peak condition and to tell me how great of a job I am doing”

    22. Bishopjones2112 on

      Fun facts, Donald Trump is also the only convicted felon to be president. Also the only rapist(known) to be president. Also the only pedophile( known) to be president. Cool huh

    23. Vanilla_cake_mix on

      If he doesn’t get what he wants he’ll have the fbi arrest the whole hospital for being fascist liberals

    24. weaponjaerevenge on

      Can you imagine the cocktail of drugs keeping this man going at 80 and being that tall and heavy. Only reason he ain’t had a stroke the size of Jesus is he’s got plot armor.

    25. Let’s all say this together:

      If this would’ve been Joe Biden going to the hospital for the third time in a year every news organization, right wing commentator and newspaper would have it on the headline and it would be a nonstop story

    26. RaisinWorried3528 on

      I seem to recall literally every fucking media outlet running stories nonstop about Joe Biden’s age, to include the “progressive” outlets.

      Billionaires have completely corrupted mainstream journalism, it’s obvious, it’s blatant, we all see it, and so many of you still consume it on a regular basis.

      Every journalist right now is complicit.

    27. manwhowasnthere on

      Every day I wake up and I hope to see the headline. You know the one, the one were all waiting for

    28. Again a reminder that as president Trump is followed by medical experts 24/7, and has full access to the medical wing of the White House. It’s fully equiped to handled most medical emergencies.

      Him having to go somewhere else for a medical check means this isn’t the regular checkup you might get at your doctor and/or dentist. This is because something is horribly wrong with his health. So bad it requires regular checks every 6 months to monitor its progress. Meaning its also something that’s incurable.

      In short: He’s dying. Either physically or mentally.

      80 is just insane. My in laws are in phenomenal shape at 72, constantly golfing and playing pickle ball tournaments, and even they say things like, “we’re not as comfortable driving in busy cities anymore.” I can only imagine what it’s actually like running a country at 80, gd.

    30. Catcaves821 on

      the life expectancy rate of someone in the us is 78, there is no reason people over 65 should be president. If you can collect social security you shouldn’t be president

    31. Effective_Base_3229 on

      One day, hopefully soon, we will all get the privilege of reading the best headline of this century. 

    32. ThisIsPeteHello on

      Obligatory: when it happens, I refuse to celebrate it. But I will not be sad. And I will cheer on the people partying in the streets.

    33. No no, he’s the oldest person to be elected that also repeatedly claimed that his opponent was too old.

      The stunning hypocrisy is the real story.
