The Hell With Presidential Privacy

PRESIDENTS AND PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES should be legally required to submit to independent, and multiple medical experts who evaluate their physical and mental health AND MAKES THE FULL RECORD OF THE PRESIDENTIAL CHECKUP PUBLIC.   Trump will lie as he has lied as his mind dissolves and his ankles look like he has elephantiasis and the goddamned media won't push him on it as they have never pushed Trump on much of anything. 

It's absurd that the many millions of those who hold minimum wage jobs have higher requirements in that regard without any presumption of privacy when it comes to private employers but those who want the job of being president get to control the public access to that information.   

Our legal system, our laws and what the stinking courts require of private citizens as they exempt those who want to hold the most powerful public offices is a form of anti-democratic corruption.   If Joe Biden had health problems that, as Republican-fascists claim were covered up,  the solution to that is to require    ALL PRESIDENTS TO HAVE INDEPENDENT HEALTH CHECKUPS AND THE FULL RECORD OF THAT MADE PUBLIC.    There is no right to privacy when you want that job,  holding it is not a right, it is a privilege if you want to put it in those terms but what it is is a public obligation that entails obligations, not rights.
