Long-time Trump propagandist with a medical degree weighs in on Cheeto's condition

Know who we haven't heard from?

The doctors who actually treated him in the aftermath of the "shooting."

Oh, and the "propagandist with a medical degree" has some serious credibility issues

First, from The Hill -

Rep. Jackson, former White House physician, shares Trump gunshot wound update 

Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-Texas), a former White House physician, shared an update on former President Trump’s gunshot wound in a Saturday memo.

“As the former appointed Physician to the President for President Donald J. Trump, I was naturally very concerned, as was the entire world, about his wellbeing after the assassination attempt on his life,” Jackson said in the memo. “As such, I met him in Bedminster, New Jersey, late that evening to personally check on him, and offer my assistance in any way possible.”


Jackson has a habit of using his medical training to lend credence to some outlandish claims about Cheeto.

From ABC News, dated January 16,2018 -

Trump's 'overall health is excellent' says doctor, weight loss a goal

President Donald Trump's "overall health is excellent" and his cognitive health is normal, presidential physician Dr. Ronny Jackson said Tuesday as part of a comprehensive, nearly hourlong review of the president's recent physical assessment.

Jackson shared the outcomes of Trump's exam with reporters at the White House press briefing, including his 75-inch height, 239-pound weight, total cholesterol of 223 and resting heart rate of 68 beats per minute.

Dear Ronny:

If Cheeto is only 239 pounds, then I'm a Yankees fan.

Me (a lifelong Red Sox fan)


Of course, the fact that Ronny Jackson claims that Cheeto was shot in an assassination attempt serves only to undermine belief in that claim.


Cynic that I am, I wouldn't be surprised to learn that Cheeto or, more likely, one of his campaign staff, uses the book Wag the Dog as bedtime reading.
