    Donald Trump angrily DENIES he 'suffered a series of mini-strokes' and gets White House doctor to back him up after book revealed Mike Pence was told to be ready to take over during president's Walter Reed hospital visit
    • Trump lashed out at critics and the media over claims he suffered a series of 'mini-strokes'
    • He attacked 'FAKE NEWS' and made insinuations about rival Joe Biden
    • On Monday, former Bill Clinton Press Secretary Joe Lockhart floated the theory that the president was covering up a stroke
    • Trump slurred his speech repeatedly during December 2017 speech on Israel
    • White House had Pence on stand by in November last year when Trump made an unplanned visit to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center
    • Pence was 'on standby' in case Trump 'had to undergo a procedure that would have required him to be anesthetized'
    • Details are in Michael Schmidt's upcoming book 'Donald Trump v. the United States,' out on Tuesday
    • Job of vice president to take over if president is incapacitated
    • Obviously Pence did not have to do so
    • At time of Trump's November 2019 hospital visit, White House said it was part of his annual physical and involved some lab tests

    It's a bit weird that Trump is denying something the author didn't say he had.

    Failure of reading comprehension is often a symptom of mini-strokes.

    Surprised he didn't confuse it with his mini-penis.

    So, Trump had ministrokes. Makes sense.

    Pence came so close to being president. What a let down for him, the man who God ordained to be president.

    With those tiny-ass, sorry excuses for "hands," one might speculate that he knows nothing BUT "mini-strokes."

    Donald Trump slams Matt Drudge for reporting on claims he had a mini-stroke and was dragging his leg and demands CNN FIRE Democratic pundit for asking about his health as White House doctor denies he had brain injury
    • President Donald Trump lashed out at Matt Drudge for the Drudge Report's coverage of Trump denying he had a 'mini-stroke'
    • 'Drudge didn't support me in 2016, and I hear he doesn't support me now. Maybe that's why he is doing poorly,' Trump said in a tweet
    • The Drudge Report led Tuesday with Trump's denial that he had a stroke and linked to a video that porportedly shows Trump dragging his leg
    • The day before, Joe Lockhart, Bill Clinton's ex-press secretary, had tweeted, 'Did Donald Trump have a stroke which he is hiding from the American public?'
    • The Trump campaign responded Tuesday afternoon by calling on Lockhart to be fired by CNN, where he's a Democratic pundit
    • Earlier, the White House doctor put out a statement saying Trump had never suffered from a stroke nor a mini stroke under his care
    President Donald Trump slammed Matt Drudge for his website, the Drudge Report, leading with the story of how the president denied he had a 'mini-stroke' that links readers to a video where Trump is purportedly dragging his right leg.

    'Drudge didn't support me in 2016, and I hear he doesn't support me now. Maybe that's why he is doing poorly,' Trump tweeted Tuesday evening. 'His Fake News report on Mini-Strokes is incorrect. Possibly thinking about himself, of the other party's "candidate,"' Trump wrote.

    But it's okay to lie about Hillary's and Biden's health.
    By the way, Trump's doctor looked like a total Hippie to me and I've had a lot of experience hanging around with hippies. I could just envision the doctor with a burning joint offering Trump a smoke. Maybe some marijuana brownies or marijuana tea. Would Trump get hooked on how calm it might make him?

      Sounds like he's had a stroke.

    Hard to say.

    Dr. Sean Conley issued a statement after claims swirled on Twitter, without any apparent evidence, that Trump had suffered a stroke before the November 2019 visit.

    “President Donald J. Trump has asked that I, Dr. Sean Conley, Physician to the President, address the recent public comments regarding his health. I can confirm that President Trump has not experienced nor been evaluated for a cerebrovascular accident (stroke), transient ischemic attack (mini-stroke), or any acute cardiovascular emergencies, as have been incorrectly reported in the media,” the doctor said in a statement.


    “The President remains healthy and I have no concerns about his ability to maintain the rigorous schedule ahead of him. As stated in my last report, I expect him to remain fit to execute the duties of the Presidency.”

    Is one of the symptoms sudden idiocy? That would mean he began having strokes in infancy.

    Do you believe anything that's said in his behalf? Remember the doctor that was told to say that he was the healthiest President ever?
