White House: Trump’s Physical Won’t Include Mental Exam

Amid growing concerns about the president’s mental fitness.

President Donald Trump’s upcoming physical exam will not include a psychiatric evaluation, a White House spokesperson told the Huffington Post on Monday. Trump is scheduled for a Friday physical at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Maryland. Trump’s mental health has become the subject of increasing speculation, with a Yale psychologist meeting with over a dozen members of Congress to discuss it early last month. The psychologist, Dr. Bandy Lee, warned the lawmakers that Trump is “going to unravel, and we are seeing the signs,” Politico reported. The group of lawmakers were all Democrats, except for one Republican, whose name has not been released.
