California Gov. Gavin Newsom is trolling Donald Trump over the release of his glowing MRI test results.
In a spoof memo dated Monday, Dec. 1 and signed by "Dr. Dolittle, Physician to the Governor, California Department of Peak Excellence," Newsom, 58, and his team mocked Trump, 79, after White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt revealed details of the abdominal and cardiovascular scans the president underwent in October.
A memo from White House physician Sean Barbabella stated that Trump's results from both tests were "perfectly normal," insisting the MRIs were "preventative."
"This level of detailed assessment is standard for an executive physical at President Trump's age and confirms that he remains in excellent overall health," Barbabella said, per the memo read by Leavitt during Monday's briefing.

According to a memo from presidential physician Sean Barbabella, the preventative checkup showed Trump in excellent overall health with perfectly normal cardiovascular and abdominal imaging.
Newsoms press office responded with a spoof medical note written in Trumpian language. Im pleased to report that nothing about the Governors health is merely normal, the mock letter read. Governor Newsom remains the healthiest human currently alive or recorded in medical history.
See it here:

The note claimed Newsoms arteries were shimmering and his bone density exceptional.
It also took a jab at Trumps energy, which was questioned last week in a report by The New York Times. It said: While we do not typically comment on the health of other elected officials, well simply note that Governor Newsom completes full workdays without falling asleep in meetings, does not require executive time to lie down and watch TV during work hours, and is able to stand upright without looking like the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
