https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/07/22/trump-age-health/ After weeks of intense focus on President Biden’s health and age that ended with his withdrawal from the campaign on Sunday, the script has flipped: Former president Donald Trump is now the oldest presidential candidate in history — and one who has been less transparent about his medical condition than his former opponent. Cut through the 2024 election noise. Get The Campaign Moment newsletter. Trump, a 78-year-old with a history of heart disease and obesity, according to experts, has not shared any updated bloodwork results or other specific information during this campaign to help experts assess his ongoing medical risks. Instead, he has released a vague, three-paragraph letter from his primary care physician, Bruce A. Aronwald, who wrote in November that the former president was in excellent physical and mental health, and who later said in a statement released by campaign officials to The Washington Post that “there is no need for President Trump to release another medical report in addition to the one he recently made public.” One of the most detailed releases about Trump’s health came during his presidency in 2018, when Jackson appeared at the White House press room podium and provided details that included a CT scan showing Trump’s coronary calcium score was 133, up from 34 in 2009. At the time, CNN’s chief medical correspondent, Sanjay Gupta, and other experts said the score indicated that Trump had heart disease. FATSO The letter also said Trump weighed 239 pounds, making him borderline obese. The following two years, Trump’s doctors revealed that his weight had increased to 243 and then 244 pounds, making him obese under government standards. DEMENTIA Some experts previously told The Post that Trump could face an elevated genetic risk of dementia. Trump has said that his father was “addled with Alzheimer’s,” which specialists said could increase Trump’s chances of inheriting the gene that can cause the disease. When Trump turned 50, he told Playboy magazine that watching his father face cognitive problems had a profound effect on him.

Why? Because he knows Trump is unacceptable and Harris has a better chance to win -

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/21/us/politics/vance-trump-campaign-rally.html Mr. Trump spoke for nearly two hours — making his 92-minute nomination-acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention on Thursday seem pithy. In all those words, he mentioned his new partner only fleetingly, almost parenthetically. “I chose him because he’s for the worker,” Mr. Trump explained. “He’s for the people that work so hard and perhaps weren’t treated like they should have been.” At another point, he invoked “the Trump-Vance administration” and then said: “By the way, I made the right pick. He’s so great. They were all good, they were all good. He’s really stepped up.” Mr. Trump spent about as much time talking about Hulk Hogan — the aging wrestler whose shirt-ripping endorsement was a convention highlight — as he did his new running mate. (“We’re not going to mess with the Hulkster,” Mr. Trump growled at one point.) Many in the crowd appeared on board with Mr. Trump’s choice of Mr. Vance. “I know Alex Jones at Infowars supports him,” said Dale Davis, 67, a part-time security guard from Portage, Mich. “If everything he says is for real, he’s awesome.”

Kamala's VP?

That would be a great choice, assuming there are no skeletons in closet, but that goes for all of them. -
The Biden is a Good Man Thread

Or else what? Who told him that? Jill? No, he saw the writing on the wall and left. Trump lost an election and refused to leave. One guy acted honorably. One was a petulant little child and was willing to rip up our constitution for his personal wants and needs -

The Biden is a Good Man Thread

No, he made the decision. Can you prove otherwise? You do have to admit he handled his stepping down much better than Trump did when he lost the election? Can you at least admit something so obviously true as that? Dude, Trump already lost, and refused to leave. Biden was still within striking distance of Trump, months out -
