Trump, reversing position, says he will release full medical record

By Jose A. DelReal September 6 at 10:29 PM

Donald Trump said Tuesday that he will release his full medical records, reversing a long-held position that he would do so only if his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton, first released detailed medical documents of her own.

“Why not go first?” ABC's David Muir asked Trump during an interview, which aired Tuesday.

“I might do that. I might do that,” Trump said. “In fact, now that you ask, I think I will do that.”

Clinton in fact released a two-page letter last year detailing her current health, medical history, medications and family medical history. The letter also detailed an incident in 2012 in which Clinton hit her head and suffered a concussion after falling, which was the subject of online conspiracies about lasting effects. Her physician, Lisa Bardack, said that a follow-up in 2013 had "revealed complete resolution of the effects of the concussion."
