"Former President Donald J. Trump posted a fawning but vague health report from his doctor on Monday that declares that Mr. Trump’s health is 'excellent' and that he has recently lost weight through an 'improved diet' and 'daily physical activity.'"


Speaking of unverifiable claims: "The timing of the report appeared to be taking a jab at President Biden on his 81st birthday."

Facts that don’t fit the narrative.

The NYT seems to be offering more than just news that is fit to print.

Trump doesn't turn into a Roomba when the teleprompter goes off. Only health report I need.

None of this matters compared to the availability of unauditable mail in ballot harvesting in key swing states, and unauditable vote counts.

Gusty Winds म्हणाले...

Trump doesn't drink or smoke. Ever. He's traveling all over the place. Doesn't look fatigued.

It is glaringly obvious Biden is frail. Combine that with corrupt, and you have America 2021-2023. Asshole.

The press is a joke. They're going to be unbearable in 2024. The coordinated talking points and propaganda is going to make you puke.

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves म्हणाले...

Both men are too old. But certainly of the two, Trump doesn't have dementia like Biden.

Enigma म्हणाले...

Blah, blah, blah. State media says 81-year-old Biden isn't too old. Blah. Blah. Blah. State media says the obviously vigorous and energetic Trump has doctors who are vague, hyperbolic, and not to be trusted. Blah. blah. blah.

NYT abdicated its "newspaper of record" role long ago. They are now a mirror image of right-wing The Gateway Pundit and The Blaze.

At least Trump didn't pardon a turkey yesterday. No matter the party, that must be the most humiliating and ridiculous thing asked of a POTUS.

I read somewhere that Angie Dickinson is still alive. It would be great to see a Tik Tok of her singing "Happy Birthday, Mr. President" in a Monroe-like (Marilyn, not James) delivery for Brandon's 81st.

Jamie म्हणाले...

Oh, fawning.

Are we supposed to understand these fawning, unverifiable claims in contrast to claims that Biden is sharp as a tack, smart as a whip, and somebody planted those darn sandbags right where he was going to step, since he's so very reliable about hitting his marks?

I want neither of these guys to run. But it seems very clear which one is more with it.

Biden Health Report Claims Continence but Skimps on Specifics

Trump is healthier and sharper than Joe Biden, but that's a pretty low bar. He's seventy seven. Death will kindly wait for him. It's a half step behind you on the fastest break when you're in your late seventies.....People with power and money like to think that power and money trump biology, and it does until it doesn't. RBG, McConnell, Biden were or are in denial. Maybe someday soon Trump will be. Neither Biden nor Trump should be running for President. Well, I don't know if you can call what Biden's doing "running". Scootering for President.

I have a Roomba. That's hilarious dude.

How does Dementia Joe keep kicking the dog piss out of the Trump dominated House of Representatives? Everything he's set his addled mind to has been passed and signed into law. Iran attacks Israel via proxies, he immediately sends in the Navy, Marine Corps and the Airborne stopping the Hezbollah threat to the north at the same time advising Netanyahu to not take the bait and overreacting. Russia attacks Ukraine and Biden united NATO and stops the tyrant in his tracks. Slo Joe tears China a new asshole by gutting their chip capabilities and causing economic pain so bad, Xi comes to SF with his tail between his legs begging forgiveness. Post Covid inflation is fading as the jobs market continues to grow.

Not bad for someone with Oldtimers disease.

Yeah, Biden is fully jabbed.

If Trump is sentient he is ahead of 100% of the Democrats.

Memo to NYT. Still haven't seen the results of a Montreal Cognitive Test on Slow Joe.
I turned 80 less than a month ago and can still pass it. Can Joe?

Age is a number

Amexpat म्हणाले...

All of Trump's doctors are hacks for hire and have given him health reports have been way over the top positive, except for the physical that expempted him for military service during the Viet Nam War.

That said, the guy has incredible energy for his age and most likely will conintue full steam ahead until the day his engine conks out.

rcocean म्हणाले...

hyperbolic or unverified claims. Hello? Its a doctor examination. Why should anyone doubt Trump's doctor unless they have an agenda?

I'm glad the NYT's does shit like this, because its makes even Dumbos understand how much they hate Trump, They will even attack him and his Doctor. And even claim he's lying about his weight!

Because nothing Trump does or says must ever be allowed to show him in a good light.

Meanwhile, where is the demand for details about Biden's health? where are demands for verifiction of any medical details?

It does appear that Trump has lost weight. For a man of 77, that may be good or bad depending on the cause.

Gunner म्हणाले...

How is anyone supposed to "verify" a doctor's visit? Isn't that what HIPAA was meant to prevent?

jim म्हणाले...

And at least one medical web site have been duely plastered with negative reviews.

It is odd reading a medical report in which the patient is identified by his former title, just saying.

jim म्हणाले...

Also, I certainly do hate Trump. He is a disgusting excuse for a man.

Jupiter म्हणाले...

"That said, the guy has incredible energy for his age and most likely will conintue full steam ahead until the day his engine conks out".

Well, except. He probably got the jab, likely more than once.

What a brilliantly funny and succinctly true visual.

I'ma gonna steal it.

Readering म्हणाले...

Never too late to go on a diet. But tough month coming.

Joe Smith म्हणाले...

Give Biden a cognitive test on live TV.

Watch videos of Biden only a few years ago.

He is a totally different person.

Joe Smith म्हणाले...

'How does Dementia Joe keep kicking the dog piss out of the Trump dominated House of Representatives?'

Memo to Howard: Biden doesn't know what day it is.

He has the entire weight of the executive branch and the media doing the work.

He just sits in his big boy chair and dreams of pudding.

I'm old enough to remember that Trump's doctor (I'm not sure it was the same guy) reported that Trump was in excellent health, when he had his first physical as President. The press wanted him charged with treason and hounded him mercilessly.

I'm also old enough to remember that, with the exception of when he got Covid (and the press breathlessly hoped he would die) Trump's health was never an issue during his presidency, and hasn't been since.

So fuck you with your "fawning" and "unverifiable," NYT.

I dont think Trump should shower with adolescent children simply because thats what it takes to win jim's approval.

Yesterday I heard some commentator remark that some eleven million Muslims have been killed in internecine conflicts since the end of WWII.. Only a very small fraction--I think she said 0.03% have been killed in the Israeli/Palestinian conflicts. I don't know what number of sub-Saharan Africans have been killed in their various conflicts, but I'm sure the number is in the millions and that the conflict in South Africa accounted for only a small fraction of those casualties.....White supremacy. Only white people have sufficient power create real victims and heart breaking tragedies. . The other casualties are just statistics. Congrats to the Jews on finally achieving white status.....Not Michelle Goldberg though. She's still the rightful heir of Anne Frank. The suffering that Benjamin Netanyahu has visited upon that poor woman cannot be fathomed.

Incidental rant: If the Aztecs had treated their subject populations a little better, they could have defeated the Spaniards handily....Mexico didn't want to take on the Comanches. That's why they invited the Anglos to Mexico. If the Spaniards hadn't arrived, some new group like the Comanches or whoever would have conquered the Aztecs. There wouldn't have been smallpox, but neither would there have been sufficient pigs to supplant human flesh in their diet....There are hieroglyphic records of the first Egyptian expedition to Nubia to acquire slaves. It dates back to 3000 BCE. The last slave was officially freed in Egypt in 1886. That's some five thousand years of recorded slavery in Africa. Four hundred years of slavery in this country doesn't look so bad when you compare it to the African experience.....Cornel West should examine his soul and determine what there is about African culture that makes it so tolerant of slavery and misogyny.
