Michael Ramirez for January 22, 2018

Somebody should have that doctor checked.

The report sounded just like the one from his private nut doctor. Fake whitewash in the White House.

The MSM has been nuts for decades.

The doc wasn’t able to spell his own name, but he is so technologically savvy that he could get Trump’s height and weight over the phone.

Mr. Ramirez, you must visit your eye doctor ASAP! I would say driving while blind is very dangerous.

Apparently imminent cardiovascular peril is now “perfect health” in this new alt-fact reality we live in.

If the same doctor had examined that doddering Hillary Clinton, who has trouble walking up a flight of stairs & who nearly passed out while being led towards a van, and given her the exact same report, we’d be told it was proof she was in perfect health.

@BWR

Even the Russians are wise to but what about so and so — or this and that…

It even has an official name (Whataboutism), and it counts for less than zero in America.

Here, we like to stand tall and proud. Everyone with half a brain knows the doctor fudged his ‘report’. Perhaps others do it too. That ain’t the point. Just own it like like an honest citizen should and it won’t be such a red herring. America needs you too — but you gotta be more straightforward than this if you want to contribute your ‘two cents worth’.

A president who watches four to eight hours of Fox News every day

Those “cognitive exams” ask things like “What day of the week is it?” or “Who is the president of the U.S.?” or “how much is two plus two minus two?” I know, because I have administered them. They don’t qualify one to run a country.

The media gets a alt-reality fake award from the president for digging deeper and discovering the president actually has a very serious heart condition. I’m sure if Trump dies of a heart attack in his bed with a Big Mac on his chest, Ramirez will draw a cartoon about how he is still alive – and a full 30% will believe him.

4 out of 5 doctors think he is “Batsh*t Crazy”. Unfortunately, it was the 5th doctor who conducted Trump’s mental exam.

I have to wonder about the accuracy of that medical report. Trump is at least six inches taller than me and lools at least as paunchy as me but he only weighs ten pounds more than me? I don’t think so. Somebody either made a huge typo or a huge lie regarding his weight. And if a lie, can we trust anything else about his health check?

He was only following orders.

Aren’t you part of the media, Michael?

@DagNabbit

What straw-man double standard are you talking about now? I don’t care about paid lackeys of any stripe.

For arguments sake, lets say 44 was a Kenyan commie pinko fag that betrayed the U.S.

What does that have to do with 45’s obvious shortcomings? You cannot be unaware that people like John McCain, Pope Francis, almost all of our overseas allies, people that staunchly defended Presidents Reagan, Nixon, Eisenhower, Bush Sr. & Jr. are deeply troubled by the bizarre and abhorrent behaviors and actions of Mr. Trump. Just how blind do you wanna be?

@XTOPHERSD — I asked Ramirez which part of the Media he identified with on his prior cartoon … He may still not comprehend that he is a part of the Media. ( Perhaps someone on FAUX NEWS will explain that he belongs to the Entertainment Industry. )

@DagNabbit

btw — Whataboutism originated in the Soviet Union during Stalin’s reign. Google it for more info.

Putin and his army of trolls succeeded in infiltrating American social media with this time dishonored Russian tactic. And you employ it constantly. Please think it through. Americans are not your enemy.

The “perfect score” on cognitive ability means he passed the test given to people to check if they are having a stroke. The medical results are obviously falsified because no one grows an inch at the age of 71.

Everyone knows if you eat KFC with a knife and fork, you must be perfectly healthy.

@DagNabbit “But… aren’t you engaging in “whataboutism”?

No. The point of whataboutism is to deflect from the matter at hand and to cast aspersions on others, thus creating a false moral equivalency and excuse bad things because someone else did something as bad or worse.

The Russians excused their gulags and Iron Curtain, etc by saying that the West did it too. When you start defending the whatabout… the subject has been successfully changed and endless quibbling happens. They win.

The subject at hand is Mr. Trumps foibles and that reasonable non-partisan people and all past Republican Presidents would be horrified at Mr. Trumps foibles. And you bloody well know it.

^ Timely as ever! Relevant, too! { Good example of “Whataboutism!” ]

@DrDon1

I’m not sure which saddens me more – that adult Americans stoop to illogical and childish arguments, or that they learned this behavior from the Russians. Perhaps both.

@GUY FAWKES — Yes, sadly, there is an extreme shortage of critical thinking in this country of ours, plus a “surplus” of cultural illiteracy!
