There has been as much of a media obsession over President Trump’s physical health as there have been panels on CNN discussing his mental fitness to be president — they even questioned the honestly of his physician, who was the same physician who gave President Obama his physicals.

You might not remember it, but it was just last July when Cory Booker told NBC’s Seth Meyers that his testosterone sometimes makes him want to punch Trump, “which would be bad for this elderly, out-of-shape man that he is if I did that — a physically weak specimen.”

It’s a good thing that Bernie Sanders is on Booker’s good side. At Tuesday night’s debate, Booker once again alluded to his vegan superpowers and suggested that Trump was “the most unhealthy person running for the presidency in 2020.”

Cabel Hull had a reminder for Spartacus.

Cory Booker: "I feel qualified to say this as the vegan on the stage… when looking at this stage, we know that the most unhealthy person running for the presidency in 2020 is Donald Trump." Bernie Sanders literally just had a heart attack. pic.twitter.com/5NsS20DpJb — Caleb SkHull ??? (@CalebJHull) October 16, 2019

They weren’t even sure if it was wise for Sanders to do the debate so soon after his miocardial infarction.

Being a scoldy (crossfit) vegan surely will win votes! People love those guys — tsrblke (@tsrblke) October 16, 2019

A vegan, an atheist and a crossfitter walk into a bar. I know because they told everyone within 2 minutes. — Physics Geek (@physicsgeek) October 16, 2019

Like all vegans he couldn’t pass up the chance to tell us about it. — scottdharris (@scottdharris1) October 16, 2019

Since when are vegans healthy in the first place? #virtuesignalling — AnalogEmpire (@EtudeImaging) October 16, 2019

Vegans are magically qualified to medically judge people? I knew it! Also, did Booker just fat-shame someone? I'm horrified! — ? SpookyWorldDude ? (@1stWorldDude) October 16, 2019

aaaanndddd we’ve circled back around to the fabricated hysteria over the president’s health….? — Nikki G ?? (@jlgncg_95) October 16, 2019

For such an old, feeble, overweight person, it’s kind of cruel that Democrats like Joe Biden want to “take him behind the gym” and promise to “beat him like a drum.”

In other news, going on a diet makes you a medical expert. Who knew? ?‍♂️ — Charlie_Foxtrot (@YouPplAreNuts) October 16, 2019

Does becoming vegan automatically credential one with an MD? — Polly Karr (@karr_pe) October 16, 2019

I honestly thought your @CoryBooker pull quote was you making a joke. Now that I've heard him actually say this, I'm not sure whether I should laugh or laugh. — Tara Lynn Thompson (@TaraLynnSaid) October 16, 2019

1) The premise that vegan automatically equates to healthy is laughably ridiculous. 2) Trump doesn't drink, has passed all physicals with flying colors, and out worked Hillary in 2016 ten fold. 3) As previously mentioned, Bernie just had a heart attack 2 weeks ago. — Jason Day (@JasonDDay) October 16, 2019
