Medical expert shares ‘very disturbing’ take on Donald Trump’s health after ‘manic’ speech
President Donald Trump’s Wednesday address to the nation sparked health concerns among doctors, with some describing his speech as “manic.”
Trump, who appears in front of cameras daily and is typically calm, raised concerns after viewers claimed he was shouting directly into the camera and at the American public. His address, which some said contained false information, lasted just 18 minutes.
Dr. Jonathan Reiner, cardiologist and professor of medicine and surgery at George Washington University, who is also CNN’s medical analyst, said in a post on X that it was “jarring” to see Trump tear through a “30-minute speech… in 18 minutes.”
He added: “I’m seriously concerned about the health of the president.”
Speaking Thursday on CNN’s The Lead with Jake Tapper, Reiner further explained why he believes something may be seriously wrong with the president.
Further, he claimed Trump had a “maniac cadence” which was “very disturbing.”
“Well, it wasn’t the content. I thought the content was just standard fare that we’ve become accustomed to. But it was the way it was delivered. It was delivered with a manic cadence, almost a frantic cadence. It was as if you felt like you were listening to a podcast on 2x. And that kind of manic delivery was very, very disturbing. Very pressurized speech,” Reiner said.
“And as the address went on, his cadence of his remarks became quicker. And we’ve never seen the president like that. He seemed almost frantic. And it was disturbing to watch. It was disturbing because he’s the commander-in -chief. He’s not just the head of the government. He’s the commander-in-chief of the greatest armed forces this world has ever seen. And it was disturbing to see him with such an almost uncontrolled cadence.”
While the White House has previously addressed questions regarding Donald Trump’s health, including reports of swollen ankles and bruising on his hands, Reiner believes they should be “more forthcoming” about Trump’s conditions, which “no one should be happy to see.”
“He’s fallen asleep in a crowded Oval Office. And he’s also fallen asleep at cabinet meetings with people talking directly to him, and that’s what’s called increased daytime somnolence. And there are a lot of things that can do that. Sometimes people with sleep apnea, people who wake up many times during the night and don’t get restorative sleep have that,” Reiner told CNN.
“That’s treated typically with CPAP or CPAP mask. We’ve never been told the president has sleep apnea. So, but it’s jarring to see the president go from basically asleep in the Oval Office to, you know, really this rapid-fire pace during basically a 30 minute speech that he gave in 18 minutes.”
