    Oh wow, someone made a call.

    Original full title of TFA:

    > Trump says he’ll release MRI results but doesn’t know what part of his body was scanned

    New title at AP News is:

    > Doctor says Trump had preventative screening MRI on heart, abdomen with ‘perfectly normal’ results

    We live in a complete joke, like a Terry Gilliam's "Brazil" style joke.

    I still love the concept of the USA. However, please make this make sense to me. How did we get here?

    This is the man involved with:

    1. Copy-pasting Putin's request to end NATO and the post-war rules based order that made us all rich as a society.

    2. Pardoning major criminals who even I, as a news junkie, didn't know existed.

    3. Pushing the Fed to make bad calls.

    4. Renaming the DoD to the Department of War!

    5. Starting a war with Venezuela.

    6. n+1 ??

    I just want my nephews to be safer than they were yesterday. Is that what is happening now?

    Disclaimer: please note that I avoided all the internal USA "politics" stuff.

    Double Disclaimer: Cannot make this up. At this very moment, I am watching the movie "The Founder", and loving it. Still, wtf 2025 USA?

      Foreign influence ops through social media exploiting fractures in American society.

        Wait, I forgot selling F-35 to a country which was advised against by the Pentagon, but where POTUS's family has business ties.

        What else did I miss?

    Please, please, please let him release an MRI of something tiny and distinctly shaped like a mushroom.

      Please, please, pretty please, don't make comments like this here.

      Comments like yours make the thread look "not fit for HN." And then, nobody gets to see the really important information.

      This is a life and death serious matter, not a time for your lazy dick joke.

        What lazy dick joke? I was talking about the man’s brain.

        Also nothing about this thread is fit for HN.
