Ex-White House doctor calls for 'medical evaluation' of Trump after disturbing new video

A former White House doctor has told Donald Trump he desperately needs to seek medical attention after a Truth Social post.

Dr. Jonathan Reiner, who served as cardiologist to former Vice President Dick Cheney, took to X and urged Trump to receive an evaluation. Reiner wrote, "Earlier in the week the president threatened to kill an entire civilization. Now he posts a video of a woman being beaten to death.

"To put it mildly, that’s concerning behavior. If he was a member of your family you would urge him to see a doctor. He should have a medical evaluation."

Reiner's post referred to a video shared by Trump to Truth Social earlier this week. Featured in Trump's post is what appeared to be raw video footage of a woman being beaten to death by a Haitian with Temporary Protected Status.

Trump wrote that "An Illegal Alien Criminal from Haiti, who was released into our Country by the WORST President in History, Crooked Joe Biden, and the Radical Democrats in Congress, just beat an innocent woman to death with a hammer at a gas station in Florida.

"The video of her brutal slaying is one of the most vicious things you will ever see. This animal was allowed to stay here because the Biden Administration granted him, and all Haitians, 'Temporary Protective Status,' a massively abused and fraudulent program which my Administration is working to terminate, but Deranged Liberal District Court Judges are standing in our way."

Trump has repeatedly pushed attacks on Haitians living in the United States, most famously spreading a viral hoax on the presidential debate stage that Haitian workers in Springfield, Ohio, were eating people's pet cats and dogs.

Aaron Reichlin-Melnick, a senior fellow at the American Immigration Council, wrote on X, "DHS did the same earlier today. It was for exactly as vile a reason as you can imagine; basically Breitbart’s old 'black crime' vertical as official government policy. There hasn’t been an administration this openly racist since Wilson invited the KKK to the White House."

Reiner has criticized Trump in the past and commented on his mental strength several times, criticizing Trump for conflating the basic 10-minute dementia screening tool with evidence of exceptional intelligence. He previously urged the president's advisers to "beg him to stop bragging" about the test.
