Im sorry, but again: you’re missing the point of those of his supporters who had legitimate pause from all this. 1) he had an established health condition diagnosed 5 years ago 2) he was told he needed to take this medication so he wouldn’t have a stroke and possibly die 3) he didn’t take the medication or follow up with his cardiologist after that 4) he then had a massive stroke and almost died on the campaign trail 5) he didn’t release all of the records involved in that stroke event, only a letter from a campaign donor 6) he did not present a convincing case for full recovery at the debate against a physician who was, if anything, kind and considerate and finally 7) when the media began to point out the obvious, individual journalists were dragged publicly for no reason other than political agenda. There was plenty of justification for the concern and it was not ableism to say so.
