“Sweetheart, this is Watergate. Goodbye!”
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/01/us/politics/trump-doctor-harold-bornstein.html
"....In his initial interviews with The New York Times in 2017, Dr. Bornstein made no secret of the fact that he had wanted to be the White House physician.
During the presidential campaign, he wrote two letters vouching for Mr. Trump’s health. In December 2015, he said that Mr. Trump would be “the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency,” and in September 2016, he said that Mr. Trump was “in excellent physical health.”
(As his frustrations appeared to mount on Tuesday, Dr. Bornstein told CNN that Mr. Trump had dictated the contents of the first letter .)
Dr. Bornstein quickly fell out of favor with Mr. Trump after the Times article, in which he gave a public accounting of Mr. Trump’s health and complained about the poor seats he was assigned at the president’s inauguration.
In the Times interviews — for which he also asked for a donation in his name to Tufts, a request The Times also declined — Dr. Bornstein discussed Mr. Trump’s medical history, and bragged about having “every phone number for him and all the wives,” whom he also treated. He said Mr. Trump, rumored to be a germaphobe, “changes the paper on the table himself” after examinations.
He also described the medications Mr. Trump was taking: antibiotics to control rosacea, a statin for elevated blood cholesterol and lipids, and finasteride, a prostate-related drug to promote hair growth.
“He has all his hair,” said Dr. Bornstein, who also took the drug. He also slipped in a boast about his own shoulder-length coif: “I have all my hair.”
Among other claims he made to NBC about the confrontation in his office, Dr. Bornstein said Mr. Schiller and Mr. Garten instructed him to remove a photo of Mr. Trump from the wall. As his lopsided news media tour continued, Dr. Bornstein also fielded a brief call from CBS.
“Sweetheart, this is Watergate. Goodbye!” the doctor said to a producer for the network before hanging up."

I think Al Pacino will play him in the movie.
In his initial interviews with The New York Times in 2017, Dr. Bornstein made no secret of the fact that he had wanted to be the White House physician.
The indicated diagnosis is a bad case of really sour grapes.
Didn't this clown release confidential personal information about Trump to CNN or some such. I thought that was illegal under HIPAA laws. Any you believe him??
Nope. And the fact that you are unable/unwilling to provide links to the CNN story just bolsters the fact that you are making it all up.
If Trump has any real concern with the enforcement of HIPPA he'll have the DOJ prosecute the men who stole his records from Bornstein's office.
yes, he did release HIPPA information. It's right there in the NY Times link where he stated some of the medications prescribed. Medications and diagnosis's are considered PHI or Protected Health Information.
You are correct, he did. I mistakenly read 1 article and commented on 2nd.
The circus continues...LOL
Everything around 'the Trump' is conceal, cut and cover.
I think somebody is looking for attention.
Is that not how fake news begins? .. "somebody is looking for attention" .. ?
It's just the usual left wing weekly scandal, no one really cares about this kind of stuff except the usual suspect(s).
The scandal is all Trump's, the media is just informing people about it.
Actually.....NO IT'S NOT.
Apparently Dr. Bornstein is short on cash !
So Trump dictating what he wanted the doctor to state on an official medical report is not a scandal???
Between Trump and his Deplorables, the nation's standards are being ground into dust.
Is area 51 and aliens for real ?
We are told that by someone.....right ?
Your first inkling that this doctor may be a wack is the fact, as he stated, Donald Dictated what he should say in the letter, AND HE DID IT !
My first inkling was when he said Donald Trump would be the healthiest POTUS ever, or words to that effect. Anybody with functioning eyes could tell you that's bullshit.
Sounds like a good name for our Glorious Leader.
