“The Dr. Oz show edited out Trump’s comments on kissing daughter Ivanka as often as possible”, Bloomberg’s health and science reporter Michelle Cortez tweeted.

Trump’s campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, says she doesn’t see the point of such broad disclosures, “I don’t know why we need such extensive medical reporting when we all have a right to privacy”.
Trump was hospitalized only once in his life, he said – to have his appendix removed when he was 11 years old.
“Flint is focused on fixing the problems caused by lead contamination of our drinking water, not photo ops”, said Weaver, who supports Hillary Clinton, Trump’s opponent. In the letter, Trump’s doctor wrote that the presidential candidate has high cholesterol and takes medication in order to lower it. Clinton’s personal physician later said the candidate was suffering from pneumonia.
Bornstein later said he only took five minutes to write that clean bill of health, and a Trump auto was waiting outside while he penned the note.
Trump, ever the showman, appeared on “The Dr. Oz Show” in what was billed by the campaign as a discussion about his general well-being and his family’s medical history. By putting the hard working American patriots twist on it, Trump seems to be following in the footsteps of former presidential nominee, Mitt Romney.
Both Trump and his Democrat rival Hillary Clinton have been under pressure to share more medical information since Clinton fell ill during a 9/11 ceremony in NY on Sunday and was forced to leave. “Our opponent does one event a day and then has to take two or three days off, it’s a very different scenario”, Donald Trump Jr. said.
“I am also thrilled to be back on the campaign trial”.
Clinton, nodding to a popular hashtag on social media and phrase used to celebrate black women’s resilience, added, “You are proof that yes indeed, black girl magic is real”. On Saturday, Trump said he was “shining a national spotlight” on the dangers of illegal immigration, and how it has resulted in the deaths of Americans.

Oz later told NBC News that “I looked at them and tried to process it pretty quickly and I got to say as a doctor, if he was my patient, they are good for a man of his age”.
