Trump released the report after a Politico article questioned whether Trump was withholding his records to hide poor health.

All this leads Bornstein (Jacob, speaking through Harold’s body) to state “unequivocally” that Trump would be “the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency”.
“Mr. Trump recently had a complete medical exam and showed only positive results”, Bornstein wrote.
Trump, who has maintained a busy campaign trail schedule since announcing his candidacy in June, said he was “fortunate to have been blessed with great genes”, adding that both his parents lived long and productive lives.
Needless to say, the letter – from the Republican front-runner’s personal physician, Harold Bornstein – is pure Trump.
This would make a lot more sense, considering Jacob Bornstein MD died five years ago.
Trump’s blood pressure is 110/65, according to Bornstein, a better than average reading.
The whole letter is very odd, and very unlike ones typically released by presidential candidates – though Trump of course hasn’t followed a typical campaign model by any means.
The one-page document also relayed that Trump takes aspirin and a “low dose of a statin” (a cholesterol-reducing drug) daily.
Update: Trump has deleted the original posts from Twitter and Facebook, and put up new ones in their place that properly credit “the highly respected Dr. Harold Bornstein of Lenox Hill Hospital”. People have been impressed by my stamina, but to me it has been easy because I am truly doing something that I love. His PSA test score is 0.15 (very low).
“Your f*cking doctor has ruined me!” he reportedly raged at then-wife Ivana Trump before brutally attacking her and sexually assaulting her in retaliation for recommending the surgeon.
“His physical strength and stamina are extraordinary”, Bornstein wrote.

Trump has never had cancer and the last time he had surgery was at age 10, when he had an appendectomy, the letter stated.
