Pences Doctor Complained About Ronny Jackson to Top White House Aides: ReportBut now CNN reports that top White House officials were already aware that there were concerns about Jacksons behavior because another physician complained about his conduct regarding Second Lady Karen Pence. Vice-President Mike Pences doctor was so alarmed by the incident that he wrote three memos and reported it up the chain of command, all the way to White House Chief of Staff John Kelly.
The memos allege that on September 8, 2017, Karen Pence had to be taken from Camp David to Walter Reed Hospital due to an undisclosed medical issue. Pences physician, who CNN agreed not to identify, said that while Jackson is responsible for caring for Trump, he intervened in the situation with Karen Pence, leading to an inadvertent disclosure of SLOTUSs medical information in a situation where ultimate discretion was of utmost importance.
The memos go on to allege that Jackson briefed multiple parties on the White House staff without specific consultation from the physician to the vice-president, which may have disclosed Pences private medical information.

(14,958 posts)Even once he turns on Jackson and disavows him entirely, he will still claim a grievance against Tester. Bizarre, irrational, dumb, but that's Trump for you. He will slander Tester at every opportunity until his dying day.
It's axiomatic with Trump: don't apologize, don't admit being wrong, don't let go of a grudge.

(82,849 posts)Apologizing is a sign of weakness to the red power tie bunch, and if you're explaining, you're losing. This seems to be the only lodestar that Trump has ever internalized for his entire career. It's quite obvious that Trump doesn't waste time on introspection or self awareness.
Which is why anyone demanding an apology from someone for offending Trump or his minions is just laughable on its face. The next time you hear Trump apologize for something he said or did will be the first time. He's not a normal human being. The usual rules of society are not applicable to him, because he doesn't subscribe to them himself, and sneers at anyone who does. If a person feels he or she absolutely must take back something they said or did about Trump (for the sake of one's conscience or soul), recognize that Trump thinks you're a sucker and a weakling for doing so.
