Trump calling his MRI “preventative” set off every alarm in my body.
For people like me who’ve had MRIs for 20 years, there’s nothing routine about them — they tell you if your life is about to change.

There’s No Such Thing as a Preventative MRI — but There’s Definitely Such a Thing as Political Bullshit
