    Ahh yes, the old medical statement furphy gets dragged out for another run.
    Both candidates have released their statements, however whereas Clinton's is a detailed analysis of her medical history, Trumps has the familiar ring of his own personal rhetoric.

    Donald Trump’s doctor has said a letter that is the only public documentation of the Republican presidential candidate’s health was written in five minutes, and explained mistakes and unusual phrasing by saying: “I get anxious when I get rushed.” (presumably because he's not used to taking dictation)

    Dr Harold Bornstein also insisted that he wrote the letter, which contains some notably Trump-esque phrasing, and repeated his glowing if not medically specific endorsement of the candidate’s fitness for office.

    The 3 paragraph letter concludes with this bizarre statement:
    “If elected, Mr Trump, I can state unequivocally, will be the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency.”

    Evidence would not seem to support that.
