US EditionNewsom Trolls Trump over ‘Perfectly Normal’ MRI Results
California Gov. Gavin Newsom issued a satirical health report mocking Trump’s MRI results and highlighted public mistrust about the president’s physical and mental health.
- After the White House released its MRI memo, California Governor Gavin Newsom's office responded with a spoof mocking the president's `excellent overall health` and `perfectly normal` imaging.
- Newsom's office, which has leaned on social media tactics, used the MRI release as an opening for satire, highlighting longstanding uncertainty about Trump's mental and physical health.
- The satirical letter listed exaggerated findings such as `shimmering` arteries, `exceptional` bone density, full workdays without sleep, standing `without looking like the Leaning Tower of Pisa`, and was signed by `Dr. Dolittle`, declaring Newsom `remains the healthiest person alive and ever to live`.
- Hours after the memo was shared, the governor's office pushed the spoof onto social channels, amplifying it through memes and mimicry and folding it into a partisan exchange involving high-profile officials.
- Beyond the parody, recent reporting and skepticism have kept presidential health under scrutiny as some observers cast doubt on the MRI results despite The White House memo, while The New York Times questioned the president's energy last week.
