Bornstein said he felt raped when the Con's body guard and lawyer raided

[malaise]

his office and took his medical files.
The clip is a riot - the Con did not want anyone to know about his hair medication.

Dr. Harold Bornstein said he felt "raped" after White House aide Keith Schiller and lawyer Alan Garten showed up unannounced and took Trump's files.

------------
This is a non-stop mafia circus

[BigmanPigman]

1. I wonder if ithe lawyer was Cohen.

They didn't say on the news yet.

[malaise]

2. No - link says Alan Garten

[no_hypocrisy]

3. Why didn't he or the office call the police?

[malaise]

5. This gang of goons defies logical thinking

By the way Bornstein expected to be the WH doctor - must have been promised the position the way Jackson thought he was heading to the VA.

Good grief this is a never-ending soap opera of sub-mediocre actors.

[procon]

13. Threats? Schiller, the ex cop, and Trump's longtime muscle man and bodyguard

was there to intimidate. The message was clear. Shut up.

[lame54]

27. rape victims often don't report their attacks

[bigtree]

4. funny, I know

...anyone else would be in handcuffs right now.

I presume the bodyguard was armed.

[malaise]

6. Isn't he still on the payroll?

[grumpyduck]

7. Sorry, but IMHO

the doctor had no business talking about what he was prescribing for a patient, whether there's a precedent or not. That's not what we expect from a doctor.

And apparently he did not file a complaint at the time, so why bring it up now.

[malaise]

9. No comment on the raid

by the Con's goons?

[HipChick]

11. There's an opening for WH Dr?

[malaise]

29. He also said that the Con dictated the letter about the healthiest

ever to run for President

[HipChick]

30. Yeah...I think we knew that...we should not be shocked if he ever drops dead

because he's totally lied about his medical health....that tells me something is up....

[malaise]

32. Shocked?

I'll be too busy popping corks

[procon]

15. True, but that's a separate issue from the robbery committed by Trump's thugs.

Trump sent in Schiller, the ex cop, and his longtime muscle man and bodyguard to intimidate the doctor and the message was clear. Shut up.

[EffieBlack]

20. It may have been inappropriate, but did Trump waive his privilege when he allowed Bornstein

to discuss his medical treatment dying the campaign?

[grumpyduck]

24. Well, if DJT allowed the doctor

to discuss his treatment, then it's a different ball game. I didn't know he had.

[LanternWaste]

33. I'm not surprised you focus on an irrelevancy and ignore the substance.

I'm not surprised you focus on an irrelevancy and ignore the substance... whether there's a precedent or not.

[democratisphere]

8. Everything associated with drumpf is always a big drama.

The medical records must be tainted with lies too. Can't wait till this ass is gone!

[sweetroxie]

34. And has to do with cleaning off his fingerprints

[HipChick]

10. The hair medication cause erectile dysfunction...

Con does not want to know he can't get it up, so Melania was getting satisfied by her security person

[malaise]

12. Bwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

[blogslut]

14. "This is like a celebration for me," he said.

"This is like a celebration for me," he said.

Jackson has denied improperly prescribing drugs.

Bornstein, 70, had been Trump's personal doctor for more than 35 years.

Those three lines OMG

[malaise]

18. I don't know whether to laugh or cry

seriously

[avebury]

16. If they could not produce either a document signed by Trump authorizing

the release of the medical records or evidence of a Power of Attorney authorizing on of the bozos to act on Trump's behalf I would have told them to leave and not return until they had the proper documents with them. One call to the police would have resulted in either the bozos leaving or being arrested for trespassing.

Hopefully if the staff gave enough warning, you could grab your cell phone and start an audio recording of what is about to transpire.

Of course with this being Trump, I would have already made sure that I had a duplicate of the file and secured it in a safe place.

[mulsh]

17. He or someone should call the cops now, getting in touch with Mr. Schneiderman & NY Med board

are also good idea. There must be a year or so statute of limitations on stealing medical records from MD's.

At the very least this story needs to be getting lots of media coverage.

[nolabels]

35. Is this a Jeopardy question ?

The basics

What Is Strong Arm Robbery?

[EffieBlack]

19. Spoken by a man who obviously has never been raped

[cyclonefence]

22. My first thought

was Wow if being raped is like having your medical office raided, what's the big deal? Another instance of depreciating women's experiences.

[EffieBlack]

25. Yes, indeed.

[mopinko]

28. men should stop saying that unless

they had actually been raped.

[EffieBlack]

31. Kind of no brainer, isn't it?

But privilege, so ...

[nolabels]

37. Well you work in that field of medicine you might think of that kind of thing on ocassion

After I had gone to get one of their most common procedures done last week last week I find the terms being used kind of humorous

[OldHippieChick]

36. What she said

jeez

[mythology]

21. What a fucking absurd comparison

Pretty much any comparison to being raped is idiotic.

[cyclonefence]

23. +100

[lunasun]

26. Made him take the photo with trump off the wall ...yep feels like ... rape
