A former White House cardiologist says Donald Trump looked "unwell" during his "manic" address to the nation.

Dr. Jonathan Reiner, who served as Vice President Dick Cheney's cardiologist for decades, made a series of posts to X as Trump addressed the nation. Though Reiner has been critical of the president in the past, he shared genuine concern for how "unwell" the 79-year-old Commander-in-Chief looks.

Taking to the social media platform, Reiner wrote, "No one should be happy to see the president like this. He looks unwell." In a post shortly before this, Reiner had written, "I'm seriously concerned about the health of the president."

Two further posts were shared by Reiner, one reading, "The pace of this address is manic." Another post from the cardiologist noted the dissonance between Trump's speech and the festive background. Reiner wrote, "The tone of this speech doesn't quite match the festive background."

[DavidDvorkin]

2. I'm seriously concerned that Trump is not sufficiently unwell.

[sheshe2]

3. Well

"No one should be happy to see the president like this. He looks unwell."

He sure doesn't give a rat's ass that he is making America unwell. He delights in the pain and suffering that he is inflicting on us.

[vapor2]

37. Sadistic bastard

[sheshe2]

39. Yes indeed.

[malaise]

4. , "No one should be happy to see the president like this.

Really now😂😂

[Red Mountain]

6. I mean, that's fair......

not quite there....teasing us a bit......who knows how much longer they'll be able to prop him up to further their agenda?

Who is in charge, anyway?

I'd like to see him fully commit to being unwell.

[malaise]

8. Wish I knew who is in charge

[ananda]

23. You know.

If you think about it, I bet you could
tell me right now.

[malaise]

27. I don't know but I'm thinking about this more and more

I have some ideas

[ananda]

32. Please share. I have some too.

You start.

[malaise]

46. I'll think a little longer while I finish my Christmas cleaning

Then I’ll share😀

[ananda]

47. Ah, snarky games.

Well, it is Christmas.

Have a good one!

[malaise]

52. No snark

😀

[vapor2]

38. Pretty sure he is no longer in charge

He has no clue as to what he says or what he does. He is fading fast

[Pinback]

21. I'm unhappy to see him like this!

You know, breathing.

5. Dr. Jonathan Reiner on why he was alarmed by Trump's speech:

Dr. Jonathan Reiner on why he was alarmed by Trump's speech: "It was delivered with a manic cadence -- almost a frantic cadence ... it was disturbing to watch. It was disturbing because he's the commander in chief."

19. How does the cadence and intensity compare to one of Hitler's speeches?

[Wednesdays]

28. Well, rumor has it that Hitler was souped up on amphetamines near his end.

We can only hope history repeats itself.

9. "No one should be happy to see the president like this...."

I’ll be that guy…

[lastlib]

25. I'm not happy to see him look unwell......

I'm ECSTATIC! And when he looks like death warmed over, I will be positively orgasmic.

[Buddyzbuddy]

11. Thoughts and prayers

From an atheist.
I didn't say what the thoughts and prayers were.

[twodogsbarking]

12. He's fine.

[Grokenstein]

14. Let him cook.

...you know where. Hell Heck, he's acknowledged as much himself.

[Conjuay]

15. He's ALWAYS looked like a toad, so how can you tell he looks 'unwell'?

[tonekat]

20. I'm happy

"No one should be happy to see the president like this. He looks unwell."

Well, T.S., Elliot! Maybe he'll kick off before he can do further damage to our country in the name of making money for himself and those who bribe him.

[purr-rat beauty]

24. I'd rather

Not see him ever again

[bucolic_frolic]

26. Minds are warped by abuse and cognitive dissonance

It was all by design. Though I think the strategy is running out of wind.

[Wednesdays]

29. Let's hope it's nothing minor. nt

[llmart]

30. "No one should be happy to see the president like this."

Well now, Dr. Reiner, in my opinion EVERYONE should/will be happy when the Grim Reaper calls him home. And I think we know where "home" is for this rat bastard.

Also, I am happy as a lark to see him like this because I have to believe he is suffering some, but I want to see him suffer much, much more - almost as much or more than all the innocent people and children he has kidnapped and are suffering or dead.

P.S. to add - Fuck him all to hell.

[Skittles]

31. he looked ridiculous

but come on, he has always looked ridiculous

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

33. He is unwell

[Demobrat]

34. I didn't watch because I can't stand the sound of his voice,

or the sight of his face, but wouldn’t a manic delivery say more about his drug use than his health?

[rpannier]

35. "No one should be happy to see the president like this..."

Just call me Edmund No One. Because I want Satan to pull this one home ASAP
Be a nice Christmas present

[GoodRaisin]

41. Yeah, like some of that ghostly gas coming up and grabbing his cankles

and pulling him through the floor, like the bad guy in the movie “Ghost”.

[Niagara]

36. The sooner the better!

I repeat myself, I know that Donald Trump isn't the entire problem but only a symptom of the problems we have.


It would be a great service and relief if he keeled over permanently.

[Blues Heron]

42. That's great! Let's hope it's serious

53. It took me a few minutes of watching

Before I turned off the TV.
Did he pull some ball bearings from his pocket and start rolling them around in his hand?
