He has in the past, but hasn't this cycle and it is a norm for presidential candidates to release it
I don't think he actually has. He's released "letters" from personal physicians touting his excellent health, but never a proper medical report.
Letters written in Trumps exact tone, cadence, bombast, and self serving egotism.
He's got the best health, better than any other patient I've seen! Strong veins... he's got all the bones, many very fine teeth! Beautiful daughter, Ivanka, very beautiful. Testosterone is off the charts, he's a very human man... entirely muscle, completely pronoun free! They say he's quite smart, went to Wharton, best student they've had in the history of colleges and universities before they all went woke. Big brain, almost too large for his head! Never has a patient score higher on a physical examination, and I'd know because I'm a doctor!
Kinda sucks though. That time I went to the doctor for a recurrent hot red rash on the back of my scrotum is just going to draw the wrong kind of attention when I run for office.
A lot of people didn't even know Roosevelt was crippled when they voted him into office and he turned out pretty ok.
I can't blame someone for wanting to keep their health issues private. I have two chronic conditions that would likely cause me to loose my job or at the very least not be hired by many other places if the wrong peoptknew about the.
Trump is clearly demented but was in poor mental health even when he was president. The fools voting for him have just bought into the hate and fear he represents. At this point his performance andental state are completely irrelevant to them. They would vote for his corpse stretched over one of Elons robots at this point.
Seems like normal decent boundaries matter less when you're at that political scale.
