After Trump’s first physical since his inauguration last Friday, only two facts survived. First, Trump is extremely overweight; at 239 pounds, only one pound more and he would be legally obese. He is in great danger of a heart attack or stroke. The second fact is that there is no proof regarding Trump’s mental state. His doctor is not a practicing psychiatrist.

As dozens of psychiatrists have previously claimed, Trump’s inability to control his temperament; his need to defend himself against the most minor criticism; his refusal or inability to read; and his lack of focus on issues, which only last a couple of minutes, are proof that he has severe mental problems.

In Michael Wolff’s book, “Fire and Fury: Inside the

Trump White House,” many of his closest associates claimed that he is mentally incompetent.

I question the veracity of Dr. Ronnie Jackson. I am just under six feet tall, go to the gym as often as possible, and weigh approximately 210 pounds. Trump is more than three inches taller than I am, and a casual observation tells me that his weight is actually closer to 260 pounds, which places him in the obese category.

Once again, Jackson is in no position to judge his mental acuity.

We know that Republican politicians have lied about many things related to Trump’s failed presidency, but can we accept lies from a member of the medical community?

Please re-post; thank you.
