Recently, President Donald Trump had a physical exam done by physician Ronny Jackson, who said that he was in good health.  The press, of course, was upset at this news.  For example, the Washington Post reports:

Tuesday’s depiction of Trump as much healthier than the average 71-year-old means he is managing to escape the consequences of a lack of sleep, the dangers of significantly elevated “bad cholesterol” and the well-established health effects of obesity, poor nutrition and lack of exercise.

That’s certainly possible, but some experts were skeptical in light of his high-fat diet, his aversion to exercise and the photos they see of the president every day.

“The health report sounds like one for a Third World dictator. No contrary information is permitted,” Marion Nestle, a professor of nutrition, food studies and public health at New York University, wrote in an email. “Therefore, it’s impossible to discuss this without more genuine information.”

You can almost hear the disappointment in their keyboard.  But nothing beats a reporter actually speculating on Trump’s expected death:

WH MEDIA IN
“EXTRA STUPID” MODE

Classy.  Nothing like reporters hoping your life expectancy is short.
