Top Doctor Warns Trump Is Endangering Lives With July 4 Rally [View all]

A top doctor has warned that President Donald Trump’s much-hyped July 4 rally is potentially fatal.

Dr. Jonathan Reiner, a cardiologist and CNN medical analyst, urged the cancellation of Trump’s Washington, D.C. rally for America’s 250th birthday, citing sweltering temperatures that could put attendees at risk.

“The same way the outdoor inauguration was canceled last year because of the cold, the rally on the Mall this July 4 should be canceled because of the intense heat (> 100 degrees),” he wrote in an X post on Thursday.

“Dangerous weather and large crowds is a bad combination,” Reiner warned. The doctor has been one of the few medical experts to demand answers about the 80-year-old president’s health, citing his Oval Office slumps and odd examination schedule.
