Of course it's fake. It's obviously fake. It's like the excuse letter a 4th-grader who skipped school writes to his teacher.

I said it when I first saw it, the extraordinary language is exquisitely fake.

This video just uncovers more proof.

Trump and his crew are great at the Art of Projection. He recently called Hillary a bigot.

If one or both of the doctors are dead at the time of the letter, that's a story. The Kim Jong type language helps the story.

This needs to blow up as it is another lie, especially when sycophants are trying to prop a story of Hillary being in poor health.

to an interview on TV? First - let's see if this is a real person. If he is - let's see if he's a real doctor. And lets see if this guy still practices medicine or was he drummed out of the corps.

It was re doctor's use of "FACG" designation - Fellow of American College of Gastroenterologists.
It seems the doctor had not been a dues-paying member of that organization for 20 years, but was still using the designation "FACG".

Obviously, it's in the doctor's interest to protect himself and Trump, even though others have pointed out that terms used in the letter are not as most physicians would use them.

People should really question his health when he presents a fake letter from a Gastroenterologist- a specialist in colon issues. What, did he have a colonoscopy once?
