If he's been having micro-strokes, the likelihood of a massive game-ending stroke is much higher than in the general population. Though it would be more just if he had one that rendered him crippled, incapable of speech, and in constant pain, then he lived another decade after being removed from office, having enough awareness to know that his ill-gotten gains and those of his family have been fully asset-stripped. Also, bedsores. Lots of bedsores.

I wish I was Vance, then I could kill myself and make the world a better place lol

None of those conditions are “perfect health A+++++++!!!!?!?!!” that this admin puts out.

Most likely, warfarin. Less likely, some kind of IV infusion to treat dementia (though those tend to go into a vein near the elbow). Less likely yet, he's getting frequent CT scans for some reason, and he gets hematomas from the cannula in a vein in his hand.

Or maybe he's totally gaga and chews on the backs of his hands.

Patient records can be subpoenaed but the request has to be relevant to a case. the persons defense as well as the provider has the right to argue against the release, though their arguments can be overruled and the provider can be compelled to release records and testify as to your diagnosis, treatment, clinical observations, etc.

It’s wild how people will regularly assume HIPAA is some magic force that protects them from government overreach. It’s not, at all. I’m not specifically shitting on you because I see this claim repeated all the time, even just here in this thread. Your providers should make the limitations of HIPAA more clear to you. They’re probably more concerned with getting you in and out to maximize billable time bc fee for service billing is fucked. That’s a whole different nightmare

A priest during confessional has more protection from being compelled to testify than any doctor or therapist. They even have stronger protections than lawyers. Lawyer client privilege can be overturned if you are found to be abusing it to plan crimes. If you brag to a clergy about all the crimes you’re gonna do (though if they help they will be punished for helping, the confessional is still inadmissible and protected). They are even usually exempt from mandated reporter laws (even though they’re often in the highest risk categories for child sex abuse). It’s fucked that this country gives a pass to pedophiles to rape kids because of a historical precedent towards fucking nonsense; meanwhile the fields built on a base of evidence that need to build trust have a cornerstone of “oh the judicial system can compel me if you become their enemy but btw if you go to church you can literally confess to raping kids and the murder you’re planning and no one will rat you out”.

Source: work in healthcare and have had records subpoenaed (successfully fought off 2/3 attempts, fuck you government)

But granted they aren’t getting trumps records. No fucking way. Even if someone had the balls to charge him with something and claim they needed them as evidence he’d get the entire government to make sure that never happened, even if it meant falsifying or even destroying the documents

I'm not in control of the most powerful military on the planet. Public servants need to be held to higher standards of accountability, including about personal health problems.

Idk I heard it was an abortion... That should do it

I mean, we’ve watched multiple justices perjure themselves in national tv.

They think they'll last 10 years before they're ground into a paste.

I doubt that's the reason. Vance doesn't have the skills or the personality to be president. I'd expect to see him impeached more than win an election.
