Okay, now that certainly got a laugh!

Yeah, same thing in grocery store parking lots. I generally park way back and walk (mainly because it's easier to drive away). I see folks still in their running/exercise clothing parking at the red curb right by the door. I don't get it. In many cases, the gym folks do everything they can to avoid exercise in "real life." I know several people like that at my workplace.

That's not at all the findings of geneticists and medical researchers.

And if you want to compare brains, I'm more than willing to compare verified IQ tests. Just PM me.
Feeling the need to compare IQs as part of your response tells me all I need to know about your IQ level. Color me unimpressed.

Color me unimpressed that you were not able to back up your accusation and declaration. I still neither see a link to a statement I made stating that exercise is unimportant nor a link to a verified medical study stating that the only thing important to longevity is exercise and that nothing else matters. And since you leveled the attack on me, it is your responsibility to back the accusation up.

When you can show me either, we can both be impressed.

President Trump apparently has a dim view of exercise, seeing it as a drain on the human body’s limited energy.

“Other than golf, he considers exercise misguided, arguing that a person, like a battery, is born with a finite amount of energy,” wrote Evan Osnos of the New Yorker in a profile of Trump in the magazine’s May 8 edition.

“Trump Revealed,” from August 2016.

“After college, after Trump mostly gave up his personal athletic interests, he came to view time spent playing sports as time wasted. Trump believed the human body was like a battery, with a finite amount of energy, which exercise only depleted. So he didn’t work out. When he learned that John O’Donnell, one of his top casino executives, was training for an Ironman triathlon, he admonished him, ‘You are going to die young because of this.’”

Where is your link, GoCardinal?
Do you have a video clip of Trump ACTUALLY saying this?


Let us give this a try.........

See how easy that was to put any persons name in and claim it is actually fact by you posting this!!??Any ya who can write something about someone. Did you notice the article said "apparently?"

Perhaps you need to reread posts before you carelessly respond. I didn't say "you". Nice try though. I also never said exercise is the only factor. Again, nice try though.

At his age he sure had enough energy to kick Hillary's azz.
Is that what the kids are calling losing by 3 million votes these days? Yes, he won the electoral college but there is no definition by which he "kicked Hillary's azz" - he was just the beneficiary of an arcane system, not to mention Russian interference and Comey's big mouth. He would not have won that small handlful of votes that put him over the electoral college threshold if Comey had been as forthcoming about the fact that Trump was under active FBI investigation at the time of the election.

In any case, it's not surprising that Trump has about as much knowledge regarding human physiology as he does about being president.

He's got more knowledge about physiology than Hillary does about the inner workings of the ELECTORAL COLLEGE SYSTEM
