Trump refuses to release medical records as he approaches 80 - eviltoast

Trump is nearly 80-years-old, loves steak and Big Macs, was hospitalized with Covid-19, and has been shot, but has maintained his health is fine

Since Donald Trump first emerged on the scene of American politics in 2015, he has refused to provide a glimpse into his medical records.

If Trump, 78, succeeds in November, he will become the oldest person ever to serve as president, ousting the current record-holder, Joe Biden. When his potential second term ends, he will be 82 years old.

Despite his advanced age, Trump has refused to provide any glimpse into his records. When asked about his health in 2015, he provided a four-paragraph letter from his doctor, who claimed he would be the “healthiest person ever elected to the presidency.”

    Lol saying some people have great genes is not eugenics. My grandma is 101 and has had milky way bars and other candy every day for the past 30yrs. Some people are literally more predisposed to long life.

      But Trump very much believes in eugenics, so you have to read his report knowing that Trump was part of crafting every word of it. His German heritage, coupled with his fascination with Hitler, his father marching with the KKK, all make it hard to believe he isn’t just telling you who he is.

      Otherwise yes, some people hit the gene lotto and don’t have risk factors to a lot of diseases. But that is not what Trump is talking about when he talks about genes, he thinks he is the “master race”.

      Candy bars every day since she was only 71!

      If she didn’t have them every day before that, I’d be celebrating too!
