Kamala Harris Releases Medical Records
The Facts
Vice Pres. Kamala Harris, 59, on Saturday released a detailed medical report concluding she "possesses the physical and mental resiliency required to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency."
The report, prepared by US Army Dr. Joshua Simmons, Harris' physician for the past three and a half years, states that her most recent physical examination in April was "unremarkable," and she maintains a healthy, active lifestyle.
The Spin
Democratic narrative
Harris' health report demonstrates transparency and fitness for the office. At 59, she's in excellent health and possesses the stamina required for the presidency. This is in stark contrast to Trump's limited and vague health disclosures — raising questions about his fitness at 78 years old, which would make him the oldest president ever elected.
Republican narrative
This is a political stunt by the Harris campaign to distract from her inability to keep up with campaign demands, let alone govern. Trump has maintained a hectic and active campaign schedule, demonstrating his superior stamina and fitness for office. After years of hiding Pres. Biden's poor health, they have no right to question Trump, who proves himself every day.
