Many people probably admire Trump's commandeering of his personal medical records
Freep | 5/2/2018 | CharlesOconnell

As usual the MSM have a lead-eared, tone-deaf thud of a response to the Trump Dr. medical records issue. They'd need longer than a news cycle will allow to come up with some otherwise glaringly obvious pretext, to try to portray the 'poor doctor' and his loss of his rights--to Trump's records. This reminds me of Justice Harry Blackmun going to the Mayo Clinic Library to write about how a woman's personal choice is between her doctor and...her doctor. People need to stop reading news fantasies spun out by people who think it's their job to tell people what to thing.

Have you seen a picture of the doctor? If Kramer was a doctor...

A president’s medical and other personal records are private and none of our business.

Looks like Trump was concerned about the integrity of thephysician in charge of his personal information.

Looks like Trump was right. Again.

And the doctor needs to be suspended from the practice of medicine for running his mouth to the media about a patient’s medical records.

This morning I was walking by a TV tuned to CNN that had a reference to this on the title at the bottom of the screen. Something about his ex-doctor.

My mental response was, “why am I supposed to care about this? It must be a slow news day.”

The story reminds me of something that happened when I was in kindergarten in 1960. It was nap time and the teacher said she was going to run to the principle’s office and nobody was to open their eyes.

When she got back one of the little girls raised her hand and said, “Teacher, Billy opened his eyes!”

Apparently adults can be that dumb too. :)

Sounds totally reasonable to me. I keep my own medical records as much as I possibly can.

No matter what they say they belong to him and are his business. The WH doc says he is fine that is all that is important.

Who was the psychiatrist whose office was broken into?

He looks like an old Grateful Dead roady. His letter opening with "To Whom My Concern" is a little confusing to me.

The onus for inappropriate behavior regarding this is fully on the physician who gave it his stamp of approval.

And, for the disclosure of it. He should lose his license.

All of this depends on whether you believe the doctor who talked about President Trump’s medical records.

BTW, did the doctor violate HIPPA?

I don’t get it. Couldn’t he have gotten all his med records upon request? I can get mine. Or did he not want any in the doc’s possession?

That was my first thought. I guess the HIPAA laws don’t apply to him..

I think it happened a year ago, so I see no agenda here. >S<

He got a new doctor, because the old one was a jerk.

Of course he can take his medical records and transfer them to someone new.

After all, this doctor had previously released medical information to the public. He should get sanctioned by the medical board for that- and so he should shut his stupid mouth.
