The test linked in reply #18 does not evaluate a subject for symptoms of psychological disorder, such as paranoia, schizophrenia, psychopathic deviance, and the like.

A test as the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory is required for that.

like the doctor said... if he was concerned about any of that, he would suggest for him to be checked.... but the doctor mentioned he was as sharp as a tack and didn't see any signs of mental illness

Come on:

(1) Psychological disorder in often not obvious, but

(2) It is obvious in Trump's case, and

all we need a specialist for (and this Jackson guy is not a psychological specialist) is to provide the details.

Well if Trump's not insane than he is purposely knowingly trolling people, which means he can't use insanity as an excuse when karma comes knocking.

So ---- you believe the results Dr. Jackson presented?

You are actually entirely incorrect.... Psychological disorders are completely delapidating(people with these disease's struggle daily to function in the real world), it is extremely rare, to completely unheard of, from someone to have a disease like paranoia or schizophrenia and be functional whatsoever, let alone be competent enough to be president of the United States... without being heavily medicated.
My significant other is a Psychologist...

I would stop pretending to be one for your political gags.

Presidential Health Reports rarely tell the whole truth. Just take a look at all the medical problems all Presidents have had. I see the Doctor is getting criticized for apparently fibbing Trump's weight and BMI. I believe there is this idea in this WH that they have to idolize Trump, and apparently the Doctor think it's his duty to do that too. Whether that's lie about words said or weight and size, they don't care. As long as the boss is happy with the results.

Ah. So you think he's lying about his weight, but everything else is accurate?

It is probably one of the many things he is lying about or has omitted or fibbed. "god gave him great genes," lolz.

I would actually like to SEE the results! Instead of hearing the man worship "God Gave Him Great Genes," Trump.

I don't trust anything that comes out of this administration.

Ask SO about the MMPI. Also ask her how confident she is about Dr. Jackson's once-over-light, non-specialist psychological evaluation. And I do not think Trump would agree to a proper psych exam, anyway, and his refusal would I think have to be confidential.

Speaking from personal experience I know of subjects who scored 2-3 standard deviations (yes, 2-3) above normal on several (yes, several) MMPI scales who went the next 40+ years (yes, 40+) leading overtly normal lives, and I mean nothing close to as blatant as what Trump displays just about every time he opens his mouth.

But that doesn't mean I would want them making life-and-death decisions for the entire world!
 
Jackson LIED about all of it!!!!! Trump has dementia, altzheimers, syphillis, cancer and the mumps. He can't possibly govern !!!! WAKE UP AMERICA !!!! SATAN IS PRESIDENT !!!!
 
Just comparing his height to someone 6'3" shows he's not. He's considered obese.

Being cognately impaired is not the same as psychologically impaired.

Obama and Bush were certainly fitter than Trump. Trump just looks like everybody's second uncle who eats too much unhealthy food but goes fishing every month.

He got a clean bill of health from the doctor. No signs of crazy at all. Get over it; Trump won.

Here is the full press conference where Dr. Ronny Jackson goes over the details of Trump's medical testing and answers questions from the reporters:



Some are saying that Dr. Jackson fabricated some or all of the results. Do you think that Congress should begin an investigation into this claim?

Option 2 was too long ---- It should read: I think he might have fabricated some or all of the results but I don't think he should be investigated.

No. Because I don't care what his doctor says or doesn't say,Its a waste of time. Any attacks on his doctor are purely political and nothing more.

And what do you know about it?

Why?

This gentleman became the "Physician to the President" under Barack Obama on July 25, 2013, but has been a White House physician since 2006.

He has served in the U.S. Navy from 1995 to the present. He is a rear admiral. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronny_Jackson

There is NOTHING in his background to suggest any political bias, or problems with his medical knowledge, capability, or honesty.

Why you would assume the worst is beyond me...unless it is based in your assumption bias that anyone who has anything positive to say about Trump, even if only the results of a physical examination, must be lying.

Look as his username, that's all you need to know.

And why is this anyone's concern?

More to the point, what law stipulates the disclosure of any sitting Presidents physical examination?

There isn't any; its generally just a courtesy....the health information privacy of politicians is protected under the same laws as any other US citizen.

Neither the President, or the Presidential Physician is under any obligation to tell you anything.
