The Mighty Press shows their intelligence

Of course because it is their job to know his waist size.. or if he will be sedated when he has his next colonoscopy... Or WAIT! The world really needs to know about his prostrate.. Whew! I'm glad they got that covered.

Exactly.. and Report the news with no bias.. not go on a vigilante hunt daily and print only what suits them.  But hey, they are Pillars of Democracy.. 

LOL.. you are right.. they do have 1st amendment rights.. and apparently the right to look like complete idiots which they did very well.. Not sure if Trump knows a rhinoceros isn't a horse or not but he sure knows horses asses when he sees them. 

Freedom of the press does not mean the freedom to CREATE the news.

Right...the red herring that everything the WH does not like is FAKE NEWS.


Trump and the rest of the WH does not have the luxury of lying constantly an not being called out on it.


Being called out by the press and by the multiple investigations they are knee deep in.

The press had really good reasons to pursue their questions, besides their normal duty to get to the truth.

If Trump is as healthy as his doctor says, he’s beating long odds

"If President Trump really is the picture of extraordinary vitality portrayed by the White House physician this week, he is defying long odds, according to experts and medical research.



Tuesday’s depiction of Trump as much healthier than the average 71-year-old means he is managing to escape the consequences of a lack of sleep, the dangers of significantly elevated “bad cholesterol” and the well-established health effects of obesity, poor nutrition and lack of exercise.



That’s certainly possible, but some experts were skeptical in light of his high-fat diet, his aversion to exercise and the photos they see of the president every day.



“The health report sounds like one for a Third World dictator. No contrary information is permitted,” Marion Nestle, a professor of nutrition, food studies and public health at New York University, wrote in an email. “Therefore, it’s impossible to discuss this without more genuine information.”.


"But some critics found parts of Jackson’s presentation a bit too positive. Some said it was convenient that Trump, at 6-foot-3 and 239 pounds, is a mere 16 ounces short of being technically obese. And that, they said, is at the height reported by Jackson; on his driver’s license, Trump is listed at 6-foot-2.



But that distinction may obscure the real issue.



“We do know that the president is at an unhealthy weight, and it’s splitting hairs whether he is overweight or obese,” said Marian Neuhouser, past president of the American Society of Nutrition and a professor at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle. “Whether his BMI is 29.9 or his BMI is over 30, he’s at an unhealthy weight.”


The health report did not reveal Trump’s waist circumference, she noted. But visually, he has abdominal obesity that is associated with poorer than average health outcomes, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes and colorectal cancer, said Neuhouser, who was a member of the committee that drafted the 2015 government dietary guidelines.



But for the vast majority of others, long-term sleep deprivation is a serious threat to well-being. It weakens the immune system and is associated with higher levels of metabolic problems, including diabetes, she said. Cognitive function and energy-level decline and the risk of depression and dementia increase, Fu said, because the brain and body aren’t given enough time to flush waste products and replenish resources.


One result of Trump’s coronary tests alarmed cardiologists. Even though he is on the statin Crestor daily, the president’s low-density lipoprotein — his bad cholesterol — was measured at a troubling 143.".
