White House's silence on Trump's health disturbs ex-GOP analyst: 'Hiding something'
The White House still has not released the results of President Donald Trump's three-hour medical and dental exam this week at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, as political and medical experts have raised questions about whether the Trump administration has concealed information about his current health, according to NBC News.
Trump, 79, was scheduled for the appointment on Tuesday, and a White House official anticipated "a readout in the next day or so." This was his third visit to the medical center since his inauguration, NBC reported.
Questions were raised over the length of time he was with medical professionals amid skepticism over the president's claims that he was in "perfect" health. He also canceled a rare trip to Camp David on Tuesday after returning from the exam, with bad weather cited as the reason for the last-minute change.
After the visit, Trump posted on his Truth Social platform.
"Just finished my 6-month physical at Walter Reed Military Medical Center. Everything checked out PERFECTLY. Thank you to the great Doctors and Staff! Heading back to the White House," Trump wrote.
Past administrations have shared the results of medical exams, according to NBC.
"There’s no constitutional or legal requirement that a president release his medical records, but it’s been a consistent practice for most modern presidents, including Joe Biden, Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, George H.W. Bush, George W. Bush and Ronald Reagan," NBC reported.
Rick Wilson, a former Republican strategist and co-founder of the anti-Trump group The Lincoln Project, suggested Wednesday that it "looks like he's hiding something." He suggested in a Substack post this week that White House insiders have been trying to conceal Trump's declining health.
Raw Story reached out to Wilson for comment.
""The reason they’re not releasing anything is that every statement about Trump's health is a screaming lie from top to bottom," Wilson told Raw Story.
