The president later added, “And just, you know, because I don’t want to have a terrible story about this. I did it for him first and for the vote second. But it was a close second, actually. But I did it for the vote second.”
Trump first said he wouldn’t mention the lawmaker’s name before turning to Johnson and telling him to share the story, saying the House member they were discussing would “be proud.”
“Okay, well. Thank you, Mr. President. Congressman Neal Dunn of Florida had had some real health challenges, and it was very serious, and had had a pretty grim diagnosis. And I mentioned it to the president and I said, ‘Congressman Dunn is a real champion and a patriot because he’s still coming to work, and if others got this diagnosis, they would be apt to go home and retire,’” Johnson said.
Trump then pressed Johnson to say what the diagnosis was, and Johnson replied, “It was, I mean, I think it was a terminal diagnosis.”
“He would be dead by June,” Trump said bluntly.
“Okay, that wasn’t public,” Johnson responded.
Wow. Just wow.
And this is why your workplace has no business knowing your personal health issues. If you’re going to miss work, so be it, but they didn’t need to know Dunn has a terminal diagnosis with less than 6 months to live.
Dunn should retire immediately and force a special election just to spite Trump.
People in Congress are so alien. Staying in office until they literally die of old age.
If I had months to live I wouldn’t be working.
Gotta get that agenda through!

The most blatant lie in this clip is that the Donvict did it for the vote second. If it were up to him, there would be no Congress at all. And he wouldn’t care whatever happened to any of them as people. It’s just like the gravity he demonstrates when the White House Press corp ask him questions about our military coming back in body bags. How much money he’s making personally supercedes the spilling of the blood of the “chumps” in the military. Think of all the Americans that will die this year for his greed to not let them be covered with affordable health care.
And Johnson had to sit there and eat shit while smiling. What a good lap dog.
This is a clear example of a person that has no empathy whatsoever.
See, no sane person would smile while exposing a person death sentence to the whole world.
The fact that this deranged person was elected as president, is a clear sign that our society is sick.
Let’s hope it survives enough to find a cure…
See, no sane person would smile while exposing a person death sentence to the whole world.
In that interview trump looked like a six year old that had been told a secret and couldn’t wait to tell everyone else what it was.
I’ve known 6 years olds with more self awareness and consideration than Trump.
I’ve known 6 year olds with more bowel control than trump too.
When I look at myself in the first grade and I look at myself now, I’m basically the same. The temperament is not that different.
Donald Trump
Trump said he got the White House doctors involved, who he called “miracle workers.”
This puts a bad thought in my head, because Trump really only ever thinks about himself, so why would he be able to have a thought like this?
What if Trump said that because he himself had a terminal diagnosis, and he’d be dead by now if not for the treatment he receives only because he’s president? Like, if America hadn’t voted for him in 2024, our Donald Trump problem might have solved itself by now.
Florida Rep. Neal Dunn faced a terminal illness and that he had helped him get lifesaving care because he liked him but also “needed his vote.”
All these months of people insisting Trump is on death’s door and the breaking story is about a hack Congressman with a treatable condition. Lolz.
