he's also full of bad cholesterol.

WASHINGTON — Cardiologists not associated with the White House said Wednesday that President Trump’s physical exam revealed serious heart concerns, including very high levels of so-called bad cholesterol, which raises the risk that Mr. Trump could have a heart attack while in office.

Dr. David Maron, the director of preventive cardiology at Stanford University’s medical school, said Wednesday that it was alarming that the president’s LDL levels remain above 140 even though he is taking 10 milligrams of Crestor, a powerful drug that is used to lower cholesterol levels to well below 100.

Dr. Maron said he would “definitely” be worried about Mr. Trump’s risk for having a heart attack if the president were one of his patients. Asked if Mr. Trump is in perfect health, Dr. Maron offered a blunt reply: “God, no.”

Other cardiologists also disputed Dr. Jackson’s rosy assessment of the president’s heart health. Several said Mr. Trump’s goal should be to get his LDL below 100, or even under 70. He has a real risk of having a heart attack or stroke, especially considering his weight and lack of exercise, they said.

Dr. Eric Topol, a cardiologist at the Scripps Research Institute, said that it is impossible to ignore the dangers of the president’s elevated cholesterol levels when providing an overall assessment of Mr. Trump’s health.

“That’s a really high LDL,” Dr. Topol said. “We’re talking about a 70-plus-year-old man who is obese and doesn’t exercise. Just looking at the lab value, you would raise a big red flag.”

He added: “I would never use the words ‘excellent health.’ How you could take these indices and say excellent health? That is completely contradicted.”

The doctor that diagnosed Trump must be worse than he is, if not worse than Hitler!

Of course, wouldn't the TDS crowd be delighted if Trump had a heart attack? Seems they don't know what they want coming or going.

Pence continually encourages him to supersize it.

How dare these medical professionals contradict a rear admiral. Stephen Miller is currently plotting revenge. This will not be tolerated.

If Trump has a heart attack, it will clearly be the result of foul play by Killary Clinton. This health report is evidence that it cannot be from natural causes.

All he has to do is change his diet a little bit. Not a big deal.

Easier said than done. It's hard to give up well done steak with ketchup.

Two scoops of iced cream!!!

Impeach!!!!

Yep, we need to believe a made for TV neurosurgeon on CNN who never personally examined Trump.

This “Trump heart attack watch” is going to backfire like every other silly thing the TDS crowd throws at him. In response to health concerns, Trump might just make some positive changes. With no bad habits other than Ben and Jerry’s, his health is better than most at that age. If he starts eating healthier, loses a bit of weight, and exercises a few times a week, he could stoutly serve another two or three terms! (JK)

Booming economy.

Sky high participation rate, record low unemployment.

Jobs returning to the states in the tens of thousands.

Apple brought back $250,000,000,000 to U.S shores because of tax reform. Companies investing back into the U.S at record pace. China trying to implement its own "tax reform" due to fear of US stealing investments.

AND THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRATS HAVE BEEN REDUCED TO.

Hoping the POTUS gets a heart attack.

Also, Gupta the CNN parrot is putting far too much emphasis on the BMI chart. At 29, Trump’s high BMI does not signal obesity. He’s 6’4” and the BMI chart doesn’t scale correctly for people over 5’11”. A man his height would have to look like an Auschwitz survivor to be in the “fit and healthy” range on that scale.

Here you go, Mr. Gunn! Easily deducted from the BMI provided and this government website. Wow are you stupid! Where’s my 100 Grand?

Trump’s weight is 238 lbs! That’s quite reasonable for a man his height!

With no bad habits other than Ben and Jerry’s,

He eats McDonalds like twice/day. I'd say that might qualify as a bad habit.

I remember when Killary Klinton was dragged like a manniquin into the back of a black van while on campaign or when she went into her 10 minute smoker's cough fits.

Leftist/Democrats/CNN: "Discussions about Killary's health are off limits! Let's focus on Trump grabbing pussy."

Also Leftist/Democrats/CNN: "Discussions about the booming economy are boring. Let's focus on Trump tweeting pics of him drinking Coke and eating McDonalds!"

Discussions of Hillary's health were off the rails. It was fine to question what was going on, and the liberal media did that. The conservative media had basically written her off for dead and had a complete conspiracy theory going.

Here, we just have the liberal media again questioning Trump's health based on factual data that was released from his medical tests. They aren't making shit up, and nobody is predicting Trump's death. Gupta provided interpretation of the calcium score, which you can verify by looking at various sources. Sure, Trump could turn things around as Bill Clinton did by changing his habits, but does anybody really think Trump will?

This is all a moot point anyway. As long as he is mentally well, he will stay in power. The heart disease will either kill him in office or it won't.

Quigley says

his health is better than most at that age.

His health and bloodwork is better than most of the members here that are half his age.

That's where you're wrong kiddo!
Not if we keep him away from the Deep State Spooks with the heart attack jab.

MAGA! Trump is president!

zzyzzx says

HAHA I forgot about that one.

Liberals have gone batshit crazy.

This is hilarious. We were told questioning Hillary's repeated coughing bouts, frennel lens glasses, electric blue seizure sunglasses, regular falls and slips, etc. was "beyond the pale" and then she collapsed into a vehicle head first on 9/11.

Now we're told that the exact same doctor who examined Obama gave Trump a sterling bill of health is part of some conspiracy.

Complete Medical Report: Insufficient!
Two Paragraphs without the least specifics: Sufficient, conspiracy theorists. SPLAT!

SIX FOOT TWO!!! BMI!!!

Sure, sure. He also raises people from the dead.

Leftist/Democrats/CNN: "Trump is too fat to be president!"

Also Leftist/Democrats/CNN:

Our next president!

Come to think of it why doesn’t he have one already and get it over with. With these kinds of things, the longer you wait the more devastating it is when it finally happens.

That should never of happened, she was in PERFECT health


Maybe not.

No they didn't, the liberal media tried to hide it.

FNWGMOBDVZXDNW says

Yes, he provided "interpretation" based on not actually treating him. At what point is that considered "making shit up"?

HappyGilmore says

Is it possible for Trumpcucks to go an hour without saying the name Clinton?

What's the problem, facts aren't allowed when discussing medical issues of presidential candidates?

Yes somehow elevated calcium and bad cholesterol became “fat.” Do they understand the differences?

No, I think Trump is also fat, besides having high cholesterol.

Well, um...Trump plays too much golf and said SHITHOLE!

yep, the guy is so fat, he has like a 3 handicap in golf. Imagine that!


So sad, that puts him in the top 3% of golfers.

Any moment now. Please hold your breath.
