I was thrilled to hear our President is in excellent health contrary to what the media has been telling us.

Dr. Ronny Jackson, in a statement released by the White House, said the examination "went exceptionally well. The President is in excellent health and I look forward to briefing some of the details on Tuesday." Trump spent about three hours at the medical facility in Bethesda, Maryland, outside Washington, for the Friday afternoon checkup, his first as president, before departing for Florida for the weekend.

Like most obese septuagenarians, he's doing great.

Wonder if this is the same doctor who said that he would be the healthiest president we've ever had?

No, and I would not be shocked if Trump has ripped up the script yet again and asked this doc to do full disclosure ...that would be yet another brand new
GREAT IDEA! compliments of BRAND TRUMP.

No. This doctor is a Rear Admiral at Walter Reed and has been the Presidential Physician since 2015.

I'm not sure why but your avatar, which is in extremely poor taste, makes me laugh every time I see it.


You might be a liberal but I respect the blatant antagonism. Well done.

No hidden meaning and completely sincere. I can respect my opposition if they have style or a good sense of humor.

Well, that's how I feel about 95% of the time. Getting older every day, bones creak louder every day, and that percentage goes up a little, every day.

Yup but while the body might not work like it once did, that mischievous little boy in me still exists. As long as I always have my mind, I can deal with losing the other.

Yep...can't get the flu without it!
That's how it usually went with me before i finally said "**** it" and stopped getting one.
 
Despite the naysayers, from this doc's bio he looks pretty legit.

I'll probably accept his opinion Tuesday, barring any Trumpian absurdity like from that last clown during the campaign.

Trump demands loyalty oaths from everybody around him. Demanding a loyalty oath from a doctor doesn't sound like the most difficult thing in the world.
 
Just one second there, Skippy:
"The examination lasted several hours and measured things like Trump's blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar, heart rate and weight"
"But conclusions about Trump's mental acuity were not expected. The White House said Trump would not undergo a psychiatric exam"
So much for that..........................
 
Since the statement came from the whitehouse and not the doctor I'll wait until Tuesday.
Especially since they couldn't even spell the rear admirals name correctly...jeez these people need help.

Yes! But I won't lie - I'd love to have my 20 year old knees instead of my 50 year old knees. :)

Yeah, but this guy's been doing this since before Obama. He appears legit, to me.

Mine too. I have 3 bottles in my basket of pills LOL (have to make sure I don't run out).

I saw a meme on Facebook the other day that said, "You can tell you are old when you have home Advil and purse Advil." I went a step further and added car Advil and briefcase Advil. :lol:

They say the memory is the second thing to go.
