On April 12, 2025, the White House published this:

'Extremities/Musculoskeletal: His joints and muscles have a full range
of motion, with normal blood flow and no swelling.'

And then just three months later (July 17):

'The President underwent a comprehensive examination, including
diagnostic vascular studies. Bilateral lower extremity venous Doppler ultrasounds were performed and revealed chronic venous insufficiency, a
benign and common condition, particularly in individuals over the age of
70.'


Which of you thinks that you can go from no signs that a doctor can see
of CVI (Chronic Venous Insufficiency) to obviously swollen ankles in
just 3 months?

And now do you trust what was also said on July 17:

'There was no evidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or arterial disease.'

'Additionally, recent photos of the President have shown minor bruising
on the back of his hand. This is consistent with minor soft tissue
irritation from frequent handshaking and the use of aspirin, which is
taken as part of a standard cardiovascular prevention regimen. This is a
well- known and benign side effect of aspirin therapy.'

Riiiiiight.

And do you know what "aspirin therapy" is; because they just admitted
Trump is getting it.

'Who it's for (and who it's not):

Aspirin therapy is primarily recommended for individuals at high risk of
heart attack or stroke, particularly those who have:

Had a previous heart attack or stroke: This is known as "secondary
prevention," and the benefits are well-established.

Been diagnosed with coronary artery disease (CAD), peripheral artery
disease, or have had heart surgery (e.g., angioplasty with stent
placement or bypass surgery).'

Sort of flies in the face of their earlier statement, doesn't it?
