So about POTUS' visit to Walter Reed this weekend (Nov 2019)
Quote | Reply
Anyone else slightly dubious on the explanation of him getting parts of his annual physical exam done early this past weekend?

I mean, his word and the word of his press secretary are always beyond reproach, so we never have reason to doubt when they speak.

And we have been told he had extraordinary stamina and physical strength and is in very good health (but obese).

It could have been as described, but today's Fed Meeting was done in the residence not the Oval Office. Is that weird or unusual? Is there any connection between the location of today's meeting and his hospital visit this weekend?

Or is he just bedridden with depression after the Louisiana governor elections and the significance of some of testimony late last week and scheduled for this week?

Suffer Well.

Are you saying it is odd to do yearly physical in multiple stages and also only 9 months after your previous one? Or that normally Walter Reed is given warning that the president is coming or that normally physicals are announced to the press ahead of time? Or that it is weird that he has not appeared in front of the press since then? Or it is odd to do it in stages and spend a couple hours at Walter Reed.

We can all agree that it is silly that the health of an elderly man, under stress, that refuses to exercise, and eats terribly, could be in anything but excellent health.

Just phase 1 of annual check. too cold to play golf. Would have done it in the residence but....
Wilson, FDR, Kennedy, all were not transparent as to their health status. He can not claim to be the first president to be not forthcoming.

I know they jumped the shark a long time ago, but the headline writes for CNN have reached a new low with this one. They are really trying to show this as a huge upset that was Trump's fault. The reality is that the state re-elected an incumbent governor.

Agree. Dems have given up quite a bit of ground there since the 2015 election when they won handily (56/44). Turnout was 10% higher. Not sure that's a positive sign no matter how you look at it.

Trump going to Walter Reed unannounced is concerning, but time will tell.

It is still a big deal that Democrat won the Governorship in a state trump won by 20 points in 2016. If trump could really energize voters, he should have been able to push the Republican over the line.

In addition, it was move evidence of how quickly southern suburbs are shifting Democrat. It really is surprising how quick that shift is happening. Rural Northern voters shitted Republican to look almost identical to rural Southerners. That shift happened a bit ahead of the shift of the suburbs and metro areas of the South moving to the Democrats. Of the ten states with the highest percentage of their population living in cities or suburbs only 2 are not reliably Democrat. One of them is #6 on that list, Texas. The other is Arizona I believe. Arizona is already a swing state and Texas is fast becoming one.

I must have missed this from the tin foil hat brigade. We need not worry about his hospital visit because he was assassinated earlier this year.

So trump is dead, but they are worried that when the news get out, that is when our ideals would be under attack? That is when our ideals are under attack? Not because the person signing bills is not who was elected, but an actor selected by a cabal? There is no current problem, even though the constitution in not being followed?

This is really an example of trump supporters taken to the extreme, they don't care if this administration follows the constitution and the only part of the Constitution they care about is half of one amendment.

Pretty normal for the WH physician to release a statement on POTUS' health at 8 pm on a Monday evening, right?

My assumption at this point is that every specific statement is a lie- it was not regular, preventative or planned. The denial of chest pains only increases the likelihood of that being the reason for the visit.







Suffer Well.

All I know is that he better have paid out of pocket for that annual since it was within 12 months of his last one. I couldn't get my physical until mid November now because last year it was in late-October.

And I didn't decide to go bc I had nothing better to do on a Sat afternoon but instead bc it was scheduled for months. And the Dr's office knew I was coming and it was on my office calendar.

The Dx was Z59.2 from what I heard (that's an ICD10 code)

Apparently someone caught a picture of him on their phone as he was heading in.



I'm beginning to think that we are much more fucked than I thought.

Is that billable?

Of course. Billing is the only purpose of ICD10. Otherwise I would have given you SNOMED_CT codes.
Don’t worry, we are already paying for this crap anyway.

I get the sarcasm... but this is clearly the wrong question.

Is there anyone on the planet that actually believes that his trip to the Dr was routine and/or planned?

I'm sure the cool-aid drinkers do. I'm feeling I'm a little closer to there being be a chance that my prediction will come true that this would end with some sort of medical event removing him from office.
