Best-selling author Stephen King has once again taken to X to denounce Donald Trump, offering voters yet another reason why they shouldnt support the former president. King, 77, is well-known for being a vocal critic of Trump, previously comparing him to a drunk senile uncle.
In his most recent social media rant against the Republican presidential nominee, the prolific horror author called out Trump for refusing to release his medical records. Trump is past his sell-by date, King tweeted on Saturday (October 5). Dont vote for an old man who wont release his medical records.
With President Joe Biden, 81, bowing out of the presidential race in July, Trump, 78, now has the possibility of becoming the oldest sitting president. He would be 82 at the end of his potential second term.
Yet, despite his advanced age, Trump has refused to provide any glimpse into his records. When asked about his health in 2015, he provided a four-paragraph letter from his doctor, who claimed he would be the healthiest person ever elected to the presidency.

(1,193 posts)....that Trump won't release his medical records because he's been diagnosed with dementia. I don't know, but that's what I heard.

(159,240 posts)I think the majority of Trump's issues have nothing to do with age.

(3,706 posts)I may be mistaken, but I don't think TFG has ever replied to a SK xeet. Trump knows that King has the mojo. Even if TFT doesn't realize what a bumbling doofus he resembles in public, he knows King can call him on old guy health issues and produce the receipts.

(142,226 posts)which is interesting... although given the genre that he excelled at, I suppose he realizes King can easily get under his skin and deep into what little brain there is.

(9,949 posts)I knew a retired United Airlines Pilot that flew his private, single engine plane all over the U.S. until he was 96. When the FAA forced Airline pilots to retire at age 62, he felt it was pure stupidity on their part.......(He had already amassed 36,000+ hours with United by that time)
He passed every single Medical Exam to fly for over 30 more years, and was sharp as could be.......
At his 95th Bday party, held in a hanger, with hundreds of past United Pilots, and United executives, and friends, I said to him:
"you have to be the oldest pilot in America".........He pointed to a plane just then landing to come to the party, and said no he is".........
The pilot of the plane that just landed came up to us to greet the former United Pilot. The former United pilot, turned to me, and introduced the guy to me, and said "No, he is the oldest pilot in America still flying, and he is turning 100 next month"
LOL LOL LOL LOL..........
Sadly, out of nowhere, he got pancreatic cancer the next year, and was gone in a few months.......May he rest in peace......

(142,226 posts)There is nary an article where Biden's name appears, that doesn't include a "required" insult referencing either the debate, and/or his age, and/or his media-manufactured health.

(35,657 posts)... I'm more concerned that Chump never releases his income statements or tax records.
Those are much more telling than the medical records.
We already know that he's unfit to be President AND he's undeserving of another chance. The man belongs in prison. If not that, at least confine him to house arrest with no access to internet or news media for the rest of his miserable life.
