Trump says he shares his famed uncle's science genius.

A friend says the uncle ‘would have been horrified.’

The famed scientist John G. Trump once explained his theory of how to treat one malady by the “direct injection of electrons” into patients’ skin. To treat another disease, he cited tests that showed it was possible to use electrons to “destroy or inactivate hepatitis virus in blood plasma.”

But, President Trump’s uncle said, “We unfortunately were not able to persuade anybody to try this,” because there had been “some casualties among volunteers.”

The president has long said that he and his uncle, who taught physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and died in 1985, represent a rare breed of “super genius,” benefiting from the same genes.

A family friend who knew John Trump personally said the scientist would have recoiled at Donald Trump’s claim of scientific knowledge when promoting unproven drugs and other treatments.

“The John Trump I knew would have been horrified,” said John Van de Graaff, whose father, the famed scientist Robert Van de Graaff, was John Trump’s longtime business partner.

1. trump confused again. trump genes relate directly to grandfather trump hotel whore house

trump has photographic evidenced trolled to him by Justin Trudeau [that was historic] of the trump family hotel whorehouse

[That photo and story would fit nicely into a family or Dem bar, as a conversation starter/piece].

2. Oh, no, he doesn't.

He has illusions of grandeur bigger than a five year old child on a chocolate and caffeine high. Something is seriously wrong with that man. He is not living in the real world.

3. Electron beam therapy is commonly used in treating cancer.

The electrons are generated by a linear accelerator. Normally the electrons are used to generate x-rays by slamming them into a target but by removing the target the Electron beam can be applied. It's a good mode of treatment for some conditions.

I don't know if Trump's uncle was advocating something similar; he probably was because his era was the time of developing novel, and sometimes odd, medical treatments with electronic devices.
