The doctors should be honest. The lack of truth shows a distrust in our system.

They should come out and tell the truth. I promise you the country can handle it. The lying makes them look bad and makes the country look weak.

I think Trump is actually sick, but it is being mismanaged like everything else.

He will either recover, have difficultly and recover or he won't recover.

Regardless, we will see what happens. If he stays in the hospital for an extended time then he's not doing well.

The White House is gas lighting the American people even on this. They don't know how to tell the truth.

Which I imagine would be easy to get since he is president. But I don't know if anyone has to give consent for them to lie.
