The Key Medical Question for Trump

As we await a review of Donald Trump’s health status as mediated by TV Doctor Dr. Oz who says he doesn’t want to reveal anything that will embarrass Trump or make him feel bad, we should focus in on what is I think the key part of his medical history. According to court documents, in 1989 Trump underwent what ended up being a tragically botched scalp reduction surgery to remove a bald spot. (No, I didn’t know this was a thing either.) Ivana had recommended the plastic surgeon. And apparently it hadn’t gone well and/or Trump was in a lot of pain. So he lashed out at Ivana, attacked her, held her down, began pulling hair out of her head to mimic his pain and forcibly penetrated her. Yes, this is really in court documents from Trump’s divorce.
