Public appearances reveal disturbing reality: alarming claims about Donald Trump

Dr. Jonathan Reiner, a cardiologist who treated Dick Cheney, raises questions in an opinion piece about Trump's health: sleepiness at official events, unexplained imaging tests, a team of 22 doctors, and a call for an external committee under the 25th Amendment.

In a published opinion piece, Dr. Jonathan Reiner, a senior cardiologist who previously treated Vice President Dick Cheney, addressed the health condition of US President Donald Trump. Reiner points to instances where Trump appeared to struggle to stay awake at official events in the Oval Office, a phenomenon defined as excessive daytime sleepiness. He also refers to advanced imaging tests of the heart and abdomen that Trump underwent at Walter Reed Medical Center without a detailed clinical explanation. The expert wonders why an unusual team of 22 specialist doctors was summoned for a routine check-up, and why the president boasts about results on a basic cognitive test, which is usually administered only when there is concern. Reiner emphasizes that a US president is not legally required to prove medical fitness, unlike pilots or security forces personnel, and calls for advancing legislation to establish an independent external committee on behalf of Congress, in accordance with the 25th Amendment, to examine the leader's health condition and provide full transparency to citizens.
