Donald Trump backs out of Dr. Oz stunt at last minute and will not disclose results of his physical

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has reportedly had second thoughts about disclosing results of his medical examination when he appears Wednesday on The Dr. Oz Show.

On Tuesday, Fox News host Brian Kilmeade reported that Trump would provide the results of his physical to Dr. Mehmet Oz, who would reveal the information on air.

But hours before the show taped on Wednesday, campaign spokesperson Hope Hicks told CNN’s Brian Stelter that Trump’s plans had changed.

“Instead, Trump will be talking with Oz about his physical activity, dietary habits, and broader health-related issues,” Stelter wrote. “The plan also calls for Trump to discuss political topics that are of interest to the ‘Dr. Oz Show’ audience, like efforts to fight the Zika virus and Trump’s new child care policies.”

1. No surprise.

Any bets on how the media will respond? Especially compared to the frenzied coverage of Hillary's bout with pneumonia?

[Adrahil]

2. I guess those results weren't so good after all..... NT

[House of Roberts]

3. Smells like a potential trap.

Get the media all stirred up speculating he has bad health, then release at a later date, to make media look bad. He'd do something like that, just to get even with them.

13. Horrid strategy if that is the case.

Purposefully presenting a negative while looking to correct them at a later date. I wouldn't even think Trump is that stupid.

[JoePhilly]

4. Its a free Trump Ad.

[duncang]

5. So doesn't want to talk about it.

Okay, need infowarts to run a expose and tell the truth. They found out dipshit is really a alien frog trying to take over the world.

[Trust Buster]

6. Poor Dr. Oz. His reputation has taken a hit because of the questionable sales practices that he has

been involved in. Now this stunt. Does he not care about his reputation as a physician anymore ?

[NCTraveler]

14. To people like Oz the size of his bank account is directly related to his reputation.

They are one and the same.

[Greywing]

7. Trump won't release the results of his "recent" medical exam

Either he didn't have one OR they're being audited

[longship]

8. It does not matter if he does, because Oz is a scammer, too.

He has long been exposed.

[tanyev]

9. But I bet he'll try to talk about Hillary's 'health problems'.

[workinclasszero]

10. So for days the media has breathlessly reported

that Trump will release his medical records and made troubling statements about Hillary's health issues.

Then Trump backs out at the last minute leaving the easily fooled with the impression that he is fine and Hillary is fragile.

Of course the media will play right along with Trump and not call him out on it.

[MFM008]

11. So it's an hour long commercial

With 2 hucksters.

[LAS14]

12. OK. Waiting for the media to obsess about this for 4 or 5 days!

[Andy823]

15. It's all part of his game

Nothing is taken serious by this moron, and I doubt if he ever had a physical. He is still play a game with the country. It's all a reality TV show for him, and when he doesn't win, he will capitalize on it in other ways. He is already milking the GOP for millions of dollars he has stuffed back into his own pockets, and they don't seem to have a clue about what is happening to them. I mean any idiot could see through Trump if they took the time.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

16. not the way I read it. thought Oz didn't know if he would see exam or not and if

he did, wouldn't reveal anything unless Trump said so. now it sounds like Trump doesn't even know if he could trust Oz

Didn't Obama consider Oz for surgeon general?
