    In other words:

    “78-year-old man running for President of the United States won’t release his medical records.”

    Remember this guy claims to be 6’3″ and 215 lbs. Also he never lies according to his supporters. Make that make sense.

    That isn’t even considering his brain is rotted from syphilis like his hero Al Capone’s was.

  4. Aside from the obvious reasons, this type of thing should automatically be public knowledge like any other qualifications.

  5. Is there really an uproar tho?  He is an old man who is showing signs of cognitive decline.  At this point, I don’t need medical records to understand those 2 facts. He is a traitor and this kinda news is just a distraction.  You think his base would give 2 shits if it said he had health issues?  So who are they doing it for, cause Democrats and most Independents have had enough of this shit.

    >It seems to fit a long-standing pattern from the former president, who also refused to release his medical records before the 2016 presidential election. At the time, he released a short letter from his personal doctor, Dr. Harold Bornstein, wildly claiming that Trump would be “the healthiest person ever elected to the presidency.”

    >Three years later, Bornstein would come out and say that Trump not only personally dictated the letter but also claimed that Trump’s ex-bodyguard raided his office and removed Trump’s medical records. This was followed by. years of secrecy from Trump about his health

    They left out how the raid on that doctors office was after said “physician” blabbed that Trump took Propecia for his hair loss.

    Also, said physician is now dead

  7. His medical records are currently undergoing an audit. Once that audit finishes he will be happy to release his medical records.

    I guess his tax returns are still being audited as well since he still hasn’t released those.

  8. This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://newrepublic.com/post/186748/trump-wont-release-medical-records?10032024) reduced by 50%. (I’m a bot)

    > "I'm not happy with the Supreme Court. They are not stepping up to the plate. They're not stepping up," Trump said in a private conversation.

    > The Supreme Court handed Trump one of the biggest wins of his career in July, when it ruled 6-3 to expand a president's immunity and redefine what constitutes an "Official act," effectively deciding that Trump could not be held accountable for some of his behavior with regard to attempting to overturn the 2020 presidential election results.

    > In a dissenting opinion, Justice Sonia Sotomayor feared for the future of a country that legally permits the executive branch authority to commit crimes under the cloak of the office, arguing that the court's decision made a "Mockery" of the constitutional principle that "No man is above the law" and that the court's "Own misguided wisdom" gave Trump "All the immunity he asked for and more.”

  9. It’s fine. It’s not like he’s old, obese, and doesn’t have a crazy man in Thiel’s back pocket as VP.

  10. RamonaQ-JunieB on

    So realistically, who thought this obviously obese, cognitively impaired, old man WOULD release them?

  11. Don’t know why it would matter, like we would trust the results anyway? He’s got doctors in his pocket.

  12. NativePhoenician on

    And not a single MAGAT will care. They have fantasy AI porn to create with his head on oiled muscled bodies of men they want to be topped by.

    Ronald Reagan had full on dementia when he was still in office. It was a huge coverup

  14. Imaginary_Month_3659 on

    The GOP doesn’t care if he dies in office. They simply want him to take office by election or through the courts so he can enact project 2025.

  15. Chalky_Cupcake on

    Who gives a shit because even if he released anything it would be from one of the many “professionals” willing to trash their reputation and oath to declare him “the fittest man I’ve ever met bla bla bla” … just like last time.

  16. Guys listen we need to give the convict a chance to find a maga doctor that will forge a report saying how horrific the plexiglass scratch was

  17. NegativePermission40 on

    Why would anyone think he’d release his medical records, when he didn’t release his tax returns 2016, after telling people he would “after the audit?”

  18. CMDR_KingErvin on

    He’s definitely hiding some debilitating disease. Probably dementia like we all expect with a good amount of heart disease thrown in for good measure.

    Dude’s heart is a ticking time bomb and we’re one well-done steak and hamberder away from president eyeshadow if trump gets elected.

  19. sorospaidmetosaythis on

    I think he’s terminally ill with some nearly indolent but inexorable type of cancer. He figures he needs to
    ditch jail for another year and then plead “too ill for prison.”

  20. It’ll confirm what we already know – he’s got the looks and mental acuity of a potato

  21. flux_of_grey_kittens on

    I hope the parole board refuses to ever release him once he’s behind bars.
