Dr. Richard E. Paulus - he's been in the news a lot in WV, Ohio and Ky.:
ASHLAND, Ky. (WSAZ) -- A federal court has appealed the motion for a new trial for an Ashland cardiologist, court records show.

Last month, Dr. Richard E. Paulus was acquitted of several counts of a conviction that he had performed unnecessary heart procedures on dozens of patients.

Paulus was scheduled to be sentenced April 25, but that was cancelled and a motion for a new trial was granted.

Paulus was accused of performing numerous medically unnecessary heart procedures during a five-year period and falsifying records in order to bill Medicare, Medicaid and private insurers. He is the namesake of the heart center at King's Daughters Medical Center in Ashland.

Maybe he's going to draft the next version of Trumpcare.

1. That is wild. nt

[BigmanPigman]

2. I am curious about the the background info on many of his supporters.

I am sure they have a lot of questionable activities in their personal histories.

[lunasun]

3. Deplorable verified

[GallopingGhost]

4. Scum bonds to scum.

I'm wondering what the writing on the blue hat guy is. Can't find my magnifying glass at the moment, and can only make out "The Chosen Few."

[mr_lebowski]

5. It says "Chosin Few" I believe. That unique spelling probably make it easier to google ...

And the last word looks like "Korea"

Just sayin, if you really care ...

[GallopingGhost]

6. Wow, I missed that spelling.

Thanks!

[radical noodle]

7. I think it's the Chosin Few

It relates to a battle in the Korean War and those who fought there.

[GallopingGhost]

8. It is.

I know about Chosin; just didn't catch the spelling on the hat. It's late.

I will never understand any veteran who supports Trump. EVER. He never served and has no idea of war except in his demented mind, and the way he has disparaged veterans makes me so, so angry.

[Hieronymus]

9. Sick scum ..

of course a Trumpette.

[czarjak]

10. I don't think I want him working on me.

[klook]

11. Medicare Fraud for All (nt)

[Duppers]

12. He's feces on top of pond scrum.

Good catch, btw. How'd you spot him?

[airplaneman]

21. There you go again - not being nice to pond scum. n/t.

[secondwind]

13. Hoping to catch Dumbo's eye. Just in case

a Presidential pardon is needed down the road

[RandiFan1290]

14. Looked like he was high on meth. nt

[elehhhhna]

15. I thought he was a 40 year old mountain woman.

[Grassy Knoll]

39. I'm Glad I wasn't The Only One..

[Corvo Bianco]

16. So this guy would be broke if not for scamming Medicaid, which ... requires Medicaid.

Just another self sabotaging Trump voter

[RandomAccess]

17. Trump's pick for Surgeon General

if he learns about guy

[FreeStateDemocrat]

18. Isn't ass-wipe-in-chief displaying the classic Mussolini pose in this picture, again!

[Doug the Dem]

19. Whew

Before I put my glasses on, I thought it was Stephen King!

[lindysalsagal]

20. His pathology is a good example of the psychological purpose

Extremism serves, political, religious, or whatever. He's facing a trial, conviction, and probably jail time, so he's obsessing about HRC and frump and whatever: it's a distraction from reality.

To a lesser degree, that's how frump functions for his base: the association and identification with the money, the bullying, the controversy gets their minds off their own inadequacies and losses. That all shows up in the delirious hysterical behavior. They are in fact out of their minds, and they are happier out there.

[Duppers]

25. Excellent insights and analysis.

Perfect, in fact. Are you in the mental health field?

[lindysalsagal]

43. Sort of. Teacher.

[Duppers]

44. Oh gosh, then you are.

I don't know how you guys do it. My hat's off to you.

[lindysalsagal]

46. Thanks. The kids would be ok if not for the crazy parents.

[Duppers]

48. 👍

[kerry-is-my-prez]

22. A cardiologist!!! Where did he get his license? I thought he was someone with "problems" like with

either psych or cognitive......

[Paladin]

23. I figured there was a story to go with this character.

I never dreamed it would be this outlandish. I think this fella and Ben Carson ought to start seeing one another---professionally, to start with.....

[Scurrilous]

24. K&R

[Evergreen Emerald]

26. How many were hired to be there?

I recall a report that he paid the crowds to be at his rallies.

[oberliner]

27. Are you sure this is the same person?

Has this been confirmed?

[Brother Buzz]

33. Staff writer for the Charleston Gazette-Mail says it's him...

And he apparently attends many of the rallies, seeing how he hasn't got a job and has time to burn.

[oberliner]

35. Thanks

Yeah - he was fascinating to watch at the rally. A bit disturbing.

[LovesPNW]

28. There's a shock

Trump supporter has no morals ...

[Sneederbunk]

29. Not so surprising that a fraud would cheer tRump.

[Lebam in LA]

30. I only saw a few pics and

Thought it was a woman

[BSdetect]

31. Another wacko idiot.

[Cognitive_Resonance]

32. Dayum...I just knew there must be a story behind that goofball. n/t

[k8conant]

34. He was the Whacko I noticed right away last night.

So, he's from Kentucky!

[bellmartin]

36. I'll say this... I guessed he was illiterate, which I doubt even an evil cardiologist would be.

[uponit7771]

37. Buncha scum

[Squinch]

38. Lock him up!

[oasis]

40. Those pesky federal regulations were getting in his way. Nt

[bdamomma]

41. I wonder if all those people

in back of trump are paid rally supporters? Don't they look fake and just set up to be there?

[a kennedy]

42. Yah, saw him, and thought he was applying for a spot on faux noise......

so animated, so positive with all of tRumps talking points.

[Jane Austin]

45. What happened between October 2016 and March 2017

That changed his conviction to an acquittal?

I didn't see that part of the story.

Thanks.

[Vinca]

47. If he's lucky, maybe he'll get a cell next to Don's.
