    This might be the most impactful change.

    All true.

    But a doctor should know better.

    I'm sure whoever from his campaign said it was going for the short-form version rather than, "A lot of risk factors can contribute to a stroke. ... but being fat in particular. ..."

    I paid the last of my student loans off a couple of years ago. Sure, I would have loved to have had this program to help, but at the same time, my loans weren't nearly at the level of what kids are paying today for college. The biggest issue for me was being unable to pay much of the principal, especially when I was at a newspaper barely scraping by and barely able to even make minimum payments.

    "I hope my opponent recovers fully and swiftly from his recent stroke, so that on election night I'll know I've beaten him at his best."


    Really not hard to come up with this stuff.

    It very well may be giving Mehmet Oz too much credit ... but I have my doubts that he has been giving a final approval on the social-media disaster coming from his team. (And no, he has no such excuse for the TV spots he has been in.)

    Actually, if true, it just makes him even dumber than we thought.

    I think he’s doled out talking points to his staff and given little direction beyond that.

    The fuck he does. This article is four years old. He also shops at the grocery store by me when he’s in Harrisburg. I’ve seen him up close. 400 my ass.

    Trump took anything that wasn’t bolted down.

    You keep saying this and it's not true. He used to weigh 400 pounds. Now he weighs around 250. He dropped 150 pounds back in 2018. And he's 6-foot-9, so 250 isn't even that bad.

    EDIT: Did not see BYM's post. Point still stands.

    Ah. I had read he weighed more than 400 and I still had the picture of him in my head of what he used to look like. I didn't realize he had dropped a lot of weight from when he was tipping the needle on the scale.
