Harris Puts Pressure on Trump over Medical Records

BBC: Kamala Harris has released her medical records, which concluded she is in "excellent health" and fit for the presidency.

Following the disclosure, the Democratic Party's nominee to be the next US president accused Donald Trump of a lack of transparency over not releasing his own health records.

The vice-president also claimed her Republican rival "doesn't want the American people to see whether or not he's fit to become president".

Without revealing Trump's medical records, the former president's team responded by quoting his doctor as saying that he was in "perfect and excellent health".

The Trump campaign said the Republican nominee had a "extremely busy and active campaign schedule" and claimed Harris "does not have the stamina of President Trump".

The trading of barbs came after the White House published a medical report that said Vice-President Harris “possesses the physical and mental resiliency” necessary to serve as president. » | Adam Durbin, BBC News | Sunday, October 13, 2024
