Trump Newest Rant on Harris and Cholesterol Was Wild Even for Him

During a late-night posting binge after midnight Tuesday, Donald Trump bragged about his health and medical exams while attacking Kamala Harris. Trump claimed that Harris “is dying to see my Cholesterol (which is 180!)” and claimed that he has already released his medical records, “including quite recently, and they were flawless.” In reality, Trump hasn’t released his medical records, even though he said in August that he would.  Harris released a two-page report about her health on Saturday, which concluded that she “possesses the physical and mental resiliency required to successfully execute the duties” of the presidency, including those of commander-in-chief. The report noted that Harris did have seasonal allergies as well as urticaria, a common skin condition. Trump seized on this. “These are deeply serious conditions that clearly impact her functioning. Maybe that is why she can’t answer even the simplest of questions asked by 60 Minutes, and others. What is this all about? I don’t have these problems,” Trump posted. The former president is likely mad that Harris called him out at a rally on Sunday for his refusal to release any records or information about his health, asking whether the Trump campaign is “afraid that people will see that he is too weak and unstable to lead America.” In his posts, he again complained about Harris’s 60 Minutes interview, which took place more than a week ago and for some reason still occupies his mind. Is his cognitive condition getting worse thanks to the pressures of the presidential race? He had a very bizarre “town hall” earlier Monday evening, in which his fans had to watch him listening to music for nearly 40 minutes. On Tuesday, he also canceled a scheduled interview with CNBC, one week after he canceled his own 60 Minutes interview, a longtime precedent for presidential candidates. All of this seems to bolster Harris’s argument that Trump has something to hide.
