Some Trump-hater on the staff of the New York Times published a book saying so. No evidence, no proof, no medical reports, of course, just "I think he did".
Trump denies 'mini-strokes' sent him to Walter Reed
by Brett Samuels - 09/01/20 11:35 AM EDT
President Trump on Tuesday denied that he made an emergency visit to the hospital last year after suffering "a series of mini-strokes" after a new book claimed that Vice President Pence was on standby in the event Trump was incapacitated.
The president's denial raised eyebrows, as the book from New York Times correspondent Michael Schmidt did not specifically state that Trump had suffered from a series of small strokes.
"It never ends! Now they are trying to say that your favorite President, me, went to Walter Reed Medical Center, having suffered a series of mini-strokes. Never happened to THIS candidate — FAKE NEWS," Trump tweeted, before insinuating that Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden may have dealt with health issues.
Except that right there in the passage you quoted, it states that the book says no such thing.
If Donald Trump's speech patterns are indicative of mini strokes then Joe Biden's speech patterns are indicative of someone removing his brain and replacing it with a sponge.
President Trump tweeted Tuesday that media reports that he had made a visit to Walter Reed Medical Center because he had "suffered a series of mini-strokes" were "fake news" — but this confused reporters, who had not known of any such reports.
Journalists were quick to point out that the president himself appeared to be breaking news.
If Trumps claim it was 'routine' is right, and Schmidt's reporting that Pence was on 'standby' is right- then someones off. A routine physical does not involve the VP 'standing by'. Someone, I'm sure, has FOIA'd the Presidential records of succession.
Maybe it's ataxia if the doctor is denying a stroke. But there is no way he went for part of his annual physical that day. It makes zero sense. They can easily do most medical testing at the WH, he wasn't due for his physical, he was rushed to Walter Reed, and they didn't give us any results for his physical until several months later when he supposedly had the "second half of it".
Not only rushed to the hospital, but Pence was put on alert that he might have to become acting President.
Whatever it was, it was taken quite seriously.
Thanks. I never heard of it before now. I was talking about major news organizations.
I'm at work so don't have time to look a bunch of stuff up but I came across that story by searching mini stroke on Twitter. They tweeted it 2 hours before Trump sent his tweet rebutting the rumor.
Below a photo of Trump standing in Kenosha today. Is the mini-stroke causing this or is that the fronto-temporal demenia stance? It's not normal, how he leans forward and places his hands forward/down like balancing sticks. He does this often. Something IS wrong. Normal people don't stand like this
Oh man, your reaching too hard. Your pictures look like someone.....standing. One look into Biden's angry lost eyes (I saw that look with my grandmother in her dementia years) is a scary sight, especially when he is one election from the presidency.
Something not right in the upstairs penthouse in Trump Tower.
