Kamala Harris challenges Donald Trump to release his medical records

by · Mail Online

Kamala Harris has challenged Donald Trump to release his medical records after she published her own in the final weeks of the American presidential election. 

Ms Harris revealed her doctor's notes after her rival spent months targeting outgoing President Joe Biden's declining health during the election campaign.

The Democratic Party candidate is in 'excellent health' according to her doctors and recently received a report from the White House showing she has the 'mental stability' to lead the country. 

After making her records public, one of Ms Harris's election team said in a post on social media: 'Your turn, Donald Trump'. 

The Republican Party has so far refused to publish Mr Trump's health details in response to Ms Harris's demands, but insists he is also in 'perfect and excellent health'.

Ms Harris, 59, and her team have been on the attack about 78-year-old Mr Trump's health after he used Mr Biden's age and apparent deteriorating condition against him. 

According to Ms Harris, Mr Trump is not a suitable choice because he 'goes off on tangents' and rants at colleagues. 

Election day is on November 5, and if Mr Trump wins a second term in office, by the time it is up, he will be the joint oldest US president at the age of 82 – the same age Mr Biden will be when he steps down.
