Reporter (to Oz): If the president's in such perfect health, why does he keep going back in for checkups?

If he has not made the connection, he is in worse mental shape than we thought.

Also, the reporters should find an additional modicum of fortitude... If you are strong enough to ask that question in the first place, great, but go all the way and say "... back in for so-called checkups?"

80 FUCKING HOURS A MONTH just to get basic health services. I don't know if the impoverished and/or the elderly can wait for Dems to take full control (IF we can) to these motherfuckers boots off of our necks. We the impoverished will be dead in 2 years which I'm sure is Vought's and the billionaires oligarch's plan.

CT or MRI to follow up on some past condition(s) that require monitoring. "Annual" checkups are not done 3 times a year.

I have to assume it's the beloved MOCA with which F47 often entertains the gullible press poodles and their swooning faith-filled audiences. This is near-certain confirmation that F47 suffers from progressing dementia, and further highlights the malicious carelessness of the Republicans who enable him.
