You were the first who brought up the term "emergency". Got any source for this claim?

Yes all reports describe as unplanned and unscheduled. They went to a hospital not a doctor's office. I know the rigid and litigious get hung up on verbiage so what do you call that?

Have no clue about whether this exam is serious or just preparatory for 2020 as Trump stated. But I can tell you that as you get older, they DO tend to do exams in stages.

Things like this...

Cholesterol levels blood tests... require 12 hours fasting
Colonoscopy.., requires 36 hour fasting
One of the scans (CT, MRI etc..) requires and injection of a "seeable" solution" before the scan can occur, and time afterwards for the solution to leave the body.


These are just a few that the VA and military doctors start getting vehement about after you pass 50 yo.
Not to mention that in NON-serious cases, they don't "rush" the return of the lab results... they get much lower priority than emergency lab results.


/e As of yet, I have no idea what more tests will start to be deemed necessary after you hit 70 yo, as I've only just turned 63.

I have no position but

Cholesterol : does not need to be checked in a hospital

Routine CT/MRI with magic “seeable solutions” (lmao) : does not need to be performed in a hospital

Colonoscopy (requires 12-24 hours fasting btw) and also does not need to be performed in a hospital

does not need =/= wont happen
i dont want any President getting a hangnail looked at in a random clinic much less anything else



Hillary fainted into a van no one cared
Barnie had a heart attack no one cared

Trump (who actually has a stressful job) stops by a hospital you have yet another meltdown here lmfao

Let me clarify

Those labs/imaging studies are routinely NOT checked in a hospital unless patient is already in a hospital for xyz reason. President shouldn’t be going inpatient for stupid reasons like routine testing. Outpatient is also more glamorous than inpatient (Contrary to what I think you were eluding to) and additionally has a higher likelihood to ensure privacy

The President has no privacy anymore. he could show up to get a non-cancerous sunspot looked at and it would be leaked that he has a ‘rare form of deathly cancer’
