Trump had an MRI

Driving home around noon Monday heard a news item on CNN, Trump told reporters he had undergone an MRI and the results were “perfect” ( of course it was “perfect”).

I suspect the MRI was of his legs looking for signs of DVT - Deep Vein Thrombosis - blood clots that form in the lower leg(s), break loose, travel thru the bloodstream to brain where they cause a stroke or death, or, lodge in heart or lungs, resulting in death. In Trump’s case, I’d be fine with clot traveling either to brain, lungs, or heart.

The recent swelling of his legs is a clue.

Docs probably put him on blood thinners, which can cause other problems.

1. Seeing as cost is not a factor, think it would be foolish not to give any Prez an MRI occassionally. If I didn't have to

7. Were the docs looking to see if, indeed, the moron even has a brain?

If trumpie says it was "perfect", perhaps they told him it was perfectly empty.
