Posting this here because there seem to be a number of opinions as to why an annual physical exam requires more than one visit; an unscheduled one at that.

President Donald Trump on Saturday underwent a partial examination at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center ahead of his annual physical, the White House said.

Trump made the unscheduled visit to Walter Reed to "begin portions of his routine annual physical exam" that included a "quick exam and labs."

Any healthcare professionals have any ideas as to this story?
 
Seems fairly obvious he experienced some sort of medical event and the White House is lying about it. Trump had his annual physical earlier this year.
 
I have always said that if Trump turns tail and pulls a Nixon style resignation he would cite health problems as the reason.

In view of the 2018 House results plus the recent governors elections in red states Kentucky and Louisiana going Dem - this might be making him rather ill.
 
Until the results are in, much ado about nothing.

We have absolutely nothing to even hint of a conspiracy.
 

Any unscheduled visit to a medical facility is considered a medical emergency of some kind. And no, it is unusual for a routine medical examination to be done in portions. Exams done in portions are in part to examine developments in some condition notably suspected cancer.

Biannual physical exams are done if the person has a medical condition that warrants multiple exams per year.

The first hint that they're lying is that their lips are moving. The second is that they're claiming the president just had an "unscheduled" second annual physical.

It causes suspicion because of all the lying that comes from Trump and the WH.
 
I read from an unsubstantiated source that he was having chest pains. Again - unsubstantiated.

Could be his “out,” because if he resigns for health reasons, he, in his eyes anyway, won’t look like a massive failure.

Who did he invite to the White House where they had a ton of fast food? I bet trump had his fill. Apparently more exercise than just golf is needed.
 

I betcha he's preggars with Pelosi's love child

I had expected that if he resigned for a BS reason, it would be based on a claim that the Democrats have prevented him from presidenting by endlessly conspiring at all levels of government to victimize him. Then he could start Trump TV and sell that lie to the right, since persons on the right so often explain RW actions/policies in terms of "look at what the mean liberals did to us. We had to do X!"

Then again, if he did have chest pains and they result from a real health problem, he may simply have to resign and pass on Trump TV....
 
I wouldn't be surprised if the orange chemicals give him cancerous melanoma.

What I suspect is happening is Trump is laying the foundation for an eventual resignation due to health reasons all the time loudly screaming that he will fight to the bitter end and never surrender.

I am not saying he will resign - just that is covering all bets in case he later needs this option if things continue to go badly.
 
I have been saying for a year now that Trump won't live to the end of his first term. He looks like crap.
 
The WH medical team would have been able to treat and diagnose almost any health issue and kept private. He's losing it.
 
and yet on a different thread a poster said only conservatives believe in conspiracies. we just proved that wrong.
 
No one has given a good explanation as to why he went there in the first place when he has a doctors office in the White House.

My best guess is that Walter Reid is the only hospital with one of those extra large mri\xray machines that they use for cows or for Sea world whales and trump couldn't fit in the machines at the White House. Probably needs to be extra strong to get through his layer of blubber.

Well, that's obviously crap. All you need for conspiracy theories is:

1. Two or more humans, and
2. An echo chamber.
 

My best guess is Walter Reed has the closest top tier burn unit, which is important because it's a good guess Trump's pants exploded into flames the other day.

 
Rumor has it that Walter Reed is standing by for “stage 2” of Trump’s physical with little notice.........:mrgreen:
