My Take: Seriously, NO ONE gets an MRI and then says they don't know what body part was scanned. Dude lies so easily. His vocabulary and repeated outbursts are issues. They need to release the full report.

My Take: Having had dozens of MRIs & CT Scans, I'm not sure if 'routine' is the operative word here. But I'll defer to others.

White House said Trump underwent MRI on heart and abdomen in October, with his physician saying all was 'normal'
White House physician Sean P. Barbabella characterized the scan as "standard for an executive physical at President Trump's age."

Dear Lord-

Today, realize that Social Media shouldn't be a place to share some of your problems/beliefs. A therapy couch might end up costing less. These words I humbly submit to you. Amen.

Hello family. Let's make it a great day. Go find some good trouble!

My Take: So The Shit Show is pardoning a dude who flooded America with cocaine, while deporting a 19 year college student who came here when she was 7, while also killing "suspected" drug boats coming in from Latin America. These folks are plainly stupid.

Trump wants to ‘return education to the states.’ Is that what he’s doing?
Education Secretary Linda McMahon says the Trump administration is “returning education to the states.” But closing the Education Department is not the same thing.

My Take: Why should they value education when the leaders of this country clearly don't. And we've made it cost prohibitive for so many. That Republican numbers speaks volumes.
