Trump: Clinton Lacks Mental and Physical Stamina to Fight ISIS
by Josh Feldman | August 15th, 2016
She also lacks the mental and physical stamina to take on ISIS and all of the many adversaries we face, not only in terrorism but in trade and every other challenge we must confront.

Donald Trump isnt just a bloviating fraud, he might truly be physically unfit to be president

There has been a recent flurry of news media coverage that has focused on whether or not Trump might not be well, whether he might suffer from dementia or Alzheimers, and whether or not his thin skin and uncontrollable temper might be a problem for a president. Even more disturbing we learned of his inability to understand why we should not nuke Europe. Thenafter all thatwe get the frightening and unhinged 2nd Amendment comment. Clearly we have reason to question whether or not he has the ability to do the job.
Anticipating that concern, Trump released a letter from his physician back in December attesting thatif elected, Mr. Trump, I can state unequivocally, will be the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency. When the letter was first released many laughed it off. It seemed like yet another sign of a bombastic and surreal campaign. But now that we are only months away from the general election it is time to return to that letter and wonder if it is further proof that Trump is scamming the US public.

The letter does not uphold even the flimsiest medical standard and it uses hyperbolic language that has no connection at all to facts. Aside from making the outrageous and completely unverifiable claim that Trump would be the healthiest president ever, it makes other odd statements. We read, for instance, that he has had a medical exam that revealed only positive results. In the medical community a positive result means a bad prognosis. What we want are normal results. The letter uses the word excellent twice in relation to medical testsanother oddity since again the standard would be to say normal. The letter also states that Trumps only medical issue was an appendectomy but there is no mention of the bone spur, which kept him from serving in Viet Nam.
Apart from the lack of scientific rigor, the letter starts with To Whom My Concern. It is worth pausing to worry that the physician who has been taking care of Trump since 1980 has such a poor command of the English language. In fact, the language in the letter mirrors the same sort of bombastic language common to Trump-speak. The writing was so bizarre that it led Robert Reich to wonder if it had been written by Trump himself.
