So Trump lied about contacting Boris Johnson dr's..UK reject any help from Trump buddies..

Little matter of UK equivalent of Hippa, if not national security...

ohnson's spokesman rejected the offer on Tuesday, saying "any treatment he receives is a matter for his doctors."

"We're confident the prime minister is receiving the best possible care from the National Health Service," the spokesman said. "Any treatment he receives is a matter for his doctors."

aka Fuck off Donald..

When the concept of HIPAA was first introduced HHS used a purple hippo as a logo. I remember.

Trump is not well-liked by other state leaders. They tolerate him when he's around and then talk about him behind his back when he leaves.

are, even when he has only met them 2 or 3 times at formal state events. He has probably never even had a real friend so he takes a formal show of cordiality as a gesture of "deep friendship". He's so pathetic!

He opens his mouth, he lies. Not one word he utters, past or present, bears any resemblance to the truth.

Why would he lie about talking to Johnson or his doctors? There's nothing to be gained by lying about that. Nobody's going to be impressed with Trump bothering a bunch of doctors with better things to do than talk to his lying ass. But he lies about it anyway. It's just pathetic.

BoJo is receiving from his doctors? Does there now need to be an international form of HIPAA?

He's repulsive.
