'President Trump appears to have purposefully hidden his use of a hair-loss drug' WP

"President Trump's personal physician, Harold Bornstein, is still talking to the press, and still saying some strange things.

In a new interview with the New York Times, Bornstein discloses that Trump takes a couple of previously undisclosed drugs: finasteride, a prostate drug that can be (and in Trump's case is) used as a hair-loss treatment, and another drug for rosacea, a skin problem.
Here's the Times report:

President Trump takes medication for three ailments, including a prostate-related drug to promote hair growth, Mr. Trump’s longtime physician, Dr. Harold N. Bornstein, said in a series of recent interviews.

The other drugs are antibiotics to control rosacea, a common skin problem, and a statin for elevated blood cholesterol and lipids.

Dr. Bornstein, who spoke by telephone in four interviews over the past month, also said that Mr. Trump takes a daily baby aspirin to reduce the risk of a heart attack. Over all, he pronounced Mr. Trump healthy and his medical care “as exactly up to date.”

The Times notes that Trump's use of the hair-loss drug "has not been publicly known." But that seems to be a charitable characterization; a less-charitable one would be that his use of these drugs was deliberately hidden."

Time for Issa and Chaffetz to hold some Congressional hearings get to the bottom of this scandal. Does Trump have a prostate the size cantaloupe or was he geezing Rogaine for his orange tresses? Inquiring minds want to know.
