Late Monday, White House doctor Sean Conley denied that President Donald Trump’s hospital visit 0ver the weekend had not been scheduled in advance.
“This past Saturday afternoon the President traveled up to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for a routine, planned interim checkup as part of the regular, primary preventative care he receives throughout the year,” Conley wrote in a memo to White House Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham. “Due to scheduling uncertainties, the trip was kept off the record.”
Trump was not “evaluated or treated for any urgent or acute issues,” according to the doctor.
“Specifically, he did not undergo any specialized cardiac or neurologic evaluations,” Conley wrote.
Questions have swirled around Trump’s seemingly sudden visit to the hospital, questions that were further fueled by the White House’s strange explanation that Trump was using a “free weekend” to get a “head start” on his annual check-up scheduled for 2020.

Gee, it took them a long, long time to come up with this rationalization…
“This past Saturday afternoon the President traveled up to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for a routine, planned interim checkup as part of the regular, primary preventative care he receives throughout the year,” Conley wrote in a memo …"
So, it wasn’t “Phase 1 of his annual physical” as Trump and Grisham claimed. Nice try, doc, but you just pointed out their lie.
Also, when else throughout the year has he gone to Walter Reed for these routine preventative care “checkups”? And you can pick 2017, 2018, or 2019 - or all 3 years - to provide dates for your answer.
Planned about five minutes after the medical incident occurred.
I’ll buy that.
Bingo!
My thoughts exactly. And given Trumpf’s penchant for fast food, his habitus, and the increasing amount of stress he’s under (deservedly), most likely he had some sort of cardiac event. A little bump in the enzymes, so to speak.
Good thing the WH has spent the last 3 years building up credibility for it’s truthfulness so we can all rest easy at this statement…
