President Trump to undergo medical exam at Walter Reed, White House says

WASHINGTON ‒ President Donald Trump is set to undergo a medical checkup at Walter Reed Medical Center on Friday, Oct. 10, in what will be the 79-year-old president's second exam at Walter Reed this year.
His visit to the doctor comes after Trump in July was diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency that has resulted in visible swelling in his lower legs near his ankles.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Trump will also take part in a "planned meeting" with troops at the facility and deliver remarks to them.
"While there, President Trump will stop by for his routine yearly checkup," Leavitt said in a statement, adding he might later in the day travel to the Middle East, where he is hoping to secure a peace deal between Israel and Hamas to end the war in Gaza.

There is almost a complete hospital in a sub basement at the White House... or under the EEOB next door ( connected by a tunnel ).
Going to Walter Reed is not needed unless there is either something very perfunctory ( annual press corp attached Presidential check up ) or something really serious.
Perhaps they are getting ready to 25th the MFer. President Couch Fucker? ( would, I think, actually be worse than Trump )

They have to be voted out, and their machine dismantled somehow - anti-trust, RICO, whatever it takes.

(4,196 posts)I'd be completely shocked if he didn't have CHF, at the very least. I wouldn't be surprised if he had kidney disease which goes hand in hand with heart disease, and might even be doing dialysis several times a week.

My guess is he's going to be admitted to Walter Reed for what ever reason and he's going to be there for a few days.
slightlv
(7,438 posts)he needs to "disappear" like he did over labor day for whatever they did to him then. It's a chronic issue and has to be dealt with on an ongoing basis... and it's not like he'll do anything "healthy" for himself! (LOL) They let it build up just so long and then they have to have him do a disappearing act so they can treat it all at once, to last for a few more weeks or month. At this point, they're all but doing a Weekend and Bernies with him!

(21,808 posts)Courtesy of Ronny "Dr Feelgood" Jackson, former White House Physician:
"In my 58 years of life, I have never witnessed a more superb specimen of peak male physical fitness than President Donald John Trump. My GOD, from his rock-hard pecs to his washboard abs to his bulging biceps, he is pure, undiluted, unadulterated testosterone of a magnitude that has never been witnessed before, and may never be witnessed again.
His cognitive abilities are humbling to the average observer. His keen intelligence and ability to grasp the most complex concepts are, quite frankly, an embarrassment of riches. His lightning-fast response to virtually any question is thorough, thoughtful, and detailed.
He looks great in his trademarked blue suit, and even better in swim trunks. Don't let the fact that I was demoted from the rank of Retired Rear Admiral to Retired Captain by the Navy influence you when it comes to my expert diagnosis of this great, golden god among men.
I could easily see President Trump serving 20 more consecutive terms in office, with no diminishing of his physical or mental stamina.
Because I, ee I, ee I, will always love you, ee I, ee I, will always love you, PRESIDENT TRUMP!"

BigmanPigman
(54,579 posts)I expect a more accurate report from my local vet's office.
Let's see....
He is a stellar specimen of a virile male
He has the heart of a 24 year old
His weight is 160 pounds
His brian activity is up there with Einstein's
He has a full head of hair
He has no cankles
He has no bruises
He has no droopy face
He doesn't stand at a 45 degree angle
He doesn't slur his speech
He doesn't repeat anything on a loop
He can walk a straight line
His memory is that of a 16 year old
Oh, by the way, Putin's doctor approves this report.

Even at his worst, my late husband was healthier than TACO is now. Knowing death is knocking louder, it does strange things to a person. I know this to be true.

A back-to-the-Constitution reset.

(57,591 posts)The fact that he has to go to Walter Reed for the second time in 6 months indicates a serious concern. Annual physicals are not held every 6 months. https://www.npr.org/2025/04/13/g-s1-60074/trump-physical-medical-report#:~:text=Trump%20says%20he%20took%20a,frequent%20victories%20in%20golf%20events.%22
