President Trump is going back to Walter Reed for a “routine yearly check up,” just six months after he had an annual physical there, CNN reports.

It’s not clear why he is going back so soon.

1. This is not a routine exam. Something is wrong.

[Silent Type]

2. If there were some big secret disease, doubt they'd make it appointments public. But we can all hope anyway.

[W_HAMILTON]

7. Oh, you!

They tried to downplay his COVID diagnosis -- remember that?

Having an annual physical just half a year after your last? Using that as an excuse to get necessary medical treatment at Walter Reed is ENTIRELY on brand for these lying fascists.

Spoiler alert: with all that is involved in having a president visit Walter Reed, there is no keeping that secret.

[Silent Type]

9. At 80 years old, several "physicals" in a year is not uncommon. Besides, almost any test could be performed in

White House tunnels/bunkers.

I am hopeful they are setting us up for trump to turn it over to Vance, there will be dancing in street, although Vance is equally vile.

[W_HAMILTON]

13. Absolutely wrong.

They had to take his ass to Walter Reed for COVID treatment, which is a lot less invasive than many other serious treatments. Hell, even the annual physicals are still performed at Walter Reed.

There is imaging and other medical equipment that you absolutely will NOT find in ""White House tunnels/bunkers."""

And President Biden was also in his 80s and yet he did not have multiple annual physicals -- just the one each year.

[Silent Type]

16. Maybe Biden should have. Blood tests, CTs, peripheral blood flow tests, ECG, etc., are all doable off site.

[W_HAMILTON]

19. Explain what you mean by: "maybe Biden should have."

And look up White House Medical Unit. This is all public knowledge. They are mainly equipped for emergency care and to stabilize patients so they can be transferred to Walter Reed. They are not in anyway comparable to a hospital.

[Silent Type]

20. The most devious man in the world couldn't smuggle in an electroencephalogram, take blood samples, etc.?

Might want to look up what's available at WH. They even have a dental chair.

[W_HAMILTON]

21. Oh, I have -- and they have a A DENTAL CHAIR?! Wow, that changes everything!

They don't have an MRI, they don't have a CT, etc. -- but they have a dental chair!



And please answer my question about what you said about Biden. I'm pretty sure I know exactly what you meant by it, but I want to see you say it.



That gif is appropriate in more than one way here...

15. Many 80 year olds have no serious health issues.

Like me. I had my annual checkup about six months ago. My doctor said, "Looks good. I've refilled your prescriptions. See you next year." I've had the same regular doctor for 20 years now. He says the same thing every time.

[Silent Type]

17. Neither of us is Prez either. Not to mention he is seeing numerous specialties, though he needs a few more.

[MineralMan]

18. Maybe not so many for Trump

He strikes me as a doctor avoider.

[Just_Vote_Dem]

3. And of course, the MSM will not ask any tough questions n/t

[Coldwater]

4. Pretty sure this is why

[FakeNoose]

5. They can't figure it out

Every time he opens his mouth, shit comes flying out...

[MineralMan]

6. Many Hope He Is Not Moribund.

[Ping Tung]

8. He'll have the doc check if his tough leader anrtics have enhanced his jock strap size.

[Happy Hoosier]

10. He is ill. We all know it. The media plays it down.

Where the fuck is Jack Tapper? If Biden was going in for a "check-up" early, CNN would have a Chryron monitoring "Biden Death Wath!" 24/7.

[republianmushroom]

11. You are going to croak dude.

Not today , but soon.

[milestogo]

12. Its time to put him down.

[Jersey Devil]

14. My guess is he's having stents put in his legs for DVT

Deep vein thrombosis. I think they use local anethesia for that so no need for Vance to be acting president, but they are making his hospital visit public just in case.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

22. trump is NOT well and needs to undergo more testing

"Trump to get a 'routine yearly' medical check-up — his second in 6 months"

If it's every three months, it's not 'yearly'... and it's a sign his doctors are making sure his health gets monitored
