[@Highintensityhealth]

Please keep the comments respectful! Since mental health of presidential candidates is a kitchen table topic for most, I thought this was worthy of an impartial breakdown.

[@HellBoy-id6ss]

You could take all of Biden's mix-ups of the whole year, and it wouldn't compare to Donald's in one day.. Chump kept mentioning Obama instead of Biden in pretty much every speech.. I'm sure Chump thought he was shot by a shark 🦈

[@michellet1800]

I'm usually a fan of your videos as they seem to aim to share knowledge about health and wellness, but this one seemed like a stretch.

[@mableanderson4831]

Obviously biased.

[@americanadreaming]

I was a huge fan until you filmed this grift. Politics like that have no place here, and as a retired US Army 35 series, I could see your bias dripping down all over that piece. Not a good look. You pushing Nic Nacs was what helped me quit dipping, and I'll be forever in your debt. You went from that to telling me a morbidly obese man in a diaper is pretty 'spry and healthy' because his adrenals still kinda work. Both men are in very poor health, to suggest otherwise is just 'white noise'. Y'all seem have a bunch of that where you live. I gotta pop smoke here and unsub, Mike. As a combat vet that hates draft dodgers and wants to protect his MH, I'll need to tell KZbin not to recommend your channel to me anymore. Thanks for helping me quit dip.

[@marlan5470]

You mean Trump was faster reacting than the Secret Service.

[@PianoTuningArtist]

True that!!!!!!!‼️

[@martinepeters9891]

Haha, yes, I noticed that 😂❤

[@hannahviolette4553]

I am a health coach and am AMAZED at how little people are willing to sacrifice to live their best life…my mother-in-law is 82 and languishing in a nursing home, after a lifetime of little to no exercise and a processed food lifestyle. My mother, the same age, is fully mobile, still driving, taking care of her entire mobile home park, and pretty damn sharp. She still walks a brisk 3-4 miles a day and eats mostly clean, whole foods. Such a difference. I wish people would wake up and take charge of their health and aging process.

[@K-top13]

My parents were sedentary and drank every night. They smoked until their 70’s. Both had heart disease, abdominal aneurysms, hypertension, and more. Mom had terrible dementia, which caused her death. In contrast, my 90 year old in laws don’t drink or smoke. They walk every day, andhave small meals and don’t snack. They are cheerful and mentally sharp.

[@hannahviolette4553]

@@K-top13 See? BOOM!!

[@Sunshine_AK]

My mom sounds like your MIL. She never liked to get outside for anything. She quit working at 55, and my husband and I basically took care of her for the next 32 years. Because of that, I've done exactly like your mom. I get out and walk/run on a daily basis as well as lifting weights, going to the gym all winter, and eating a clean diet.

[@hannahviolette4553]

[@christinemaria77]

Good for your mom. I'm gunna be like her when I grow up.

[@insideoutfitnessfan3353]

I agree. Exercise is crucial! My Dad is 77yrs old, a contractor, still out building homes. He is active daily and his mind is as sharp as always. We have to continue to move it or lose it. Thanks for posting this!

[@caiobedinminatel]

It's really admirable when you see older people taking care of their health. My grandmother is 82 but goes to the gym 3 times a week, socializes, and has a really good mind. On the other hand, I see other people who simply don't care about their own lives, and the problem is that they become a burden to their families.

[@timtatum1]

Keep in mind that Trump doesn't smoke, drink or abuse drugs. Another significant factor.

[@JamieE76]

Great point! It really makes a difference.

[@anitaevans5361]

He claims to not, but he is highly deceptive & lied about numerous things.

[@AD-wm9if]

Democrats believe he takes methamphetamines.

[@JamieE76]

@@anitaevans5361 Yes, please keep spewing your bs, because the rest of us apparently don't have eyes, ears, or brains to figure anything out for ourselves. Get a life. Seriously. And stop eating seed oils and processed food. It's rotting your brain.

[@HashtagAPI8]

My granddad used to walk a lot but in his later years he would still walk 6 km every day. He always ate very moderately with minimal to no sugar. He had covid two times, no vaccine and was fine. He died in his sleep peacefully at 94.

[@user-it3lx1mi9m]

I've always enjoyed your content. You really have guts to even roll this one out. Love it. 👍

[@sveletemelody]

It appears that no matter your age you should be challenging yourself somewhat to stay fit and to exercise. An active lifestyle is the key.

[@ulric_official]

On one hand Trump has had a terrible diet all his life, on the other hand he doesn’t smoke, do drugs and never drank alcohol. He probably also doesn’t eat sugar in the quantities of a super addict like me😭

[@shesh4896]

He drank 12 Diet Pepsi a day while in the White House and does have quite a sweet tooth. This guy is biased. Trump never walks while in golfing. Always uses a golf cart.

[@tommyjones1357]

I doubt this. I’m sure he has great advisors, doctors, chefs, and a nutritionist. No doubt he can afford quality beef.

[@dasppg9737]

I’m amazed you know how he’s eaten his entire life. Are you close with Trump?

[@Excellent135]

He drinks Diet Coke though.

[@Joy80JJ]

I appreciate your sane words.

[@aikimommee]

My grown son had a mental health incident during covid… he had lost a lot of weight and I am convinced it was directly related to him not taking care of himself. We brought him home and my husband and I monitored him 24/7 - there were ZERO mental health resources available. nothing. nada. I did the only thing I could do which was to put him on a nutritional program (increased meat/protein intake, eating small meals frequently for gentle weight gain, NAC, l-theanine, and other supplements and light exercise. He still had to take a low dose med for awhile once we could get him to a psychiatrist but I am 100% convinced a major part of his healing was in part to the nutrition fixes. I am happy to say that he is aware and respects the benefits of nutrition/exercise for his brain and he is happily married and doing well! We also have a great line of communication with his wife and if there are ANY flickers of incident we all go into protocol mode. Thankfully it’s very rare he has tiny relapses now.

[@user-kv3ud3mj2f]

Very well said!

[@suzannederringer1607]

I was watching it live. The most extraordinary, courageous thing I've ever seen.

[@LorainPsycho]

My grandma is 91 years old and is always outside gardening. She doesn't move as fast as she used to, but she always tries to do stuff she shouldn't be doing. She worries me when I'm not there to help, but i know it keeps her going

[@picodegallo1959]

Yes. The interesting thing is that he's not pumping iron. He's not a weightlifter. He golfs. Even that lighter amount of exercise does wonderful things to the body and brain. Also, interesting to note, it's not like the guy is known for a perfect diet. This puts even more emphasis on the activity. Cool topic. Appreciated it.

[@jacmorales5314]

Thank you for the video. I never thought about it this way. Mr. Trump is really ALERT!!!

[@Lisa-gb8zu]

Thank you!! 🙏

[@ArmedOregonian]

Great commentary at the end regarding political violence only potentially discouraging worthy and competent people from running for govt. so true, very impartial, thank you for a sane voice in insane times. I’ve started following your content more after several serious health issues arising. Thanks for all you do!

[@dreddy_g]

Mike, it might be a good idea to link that one episode in the show notes that you did about the link between nutrition and the decaying mental health of our youth. Just my 2 cents. Thank you.

[@rodakowski]

EXCELLENT analysis of both the aged & the shooter - in terms of diet, exercise, age , socialization & mental health. Thank you!

[@ap-plateau5316]

Great objective analysis. Thank you for not being afraid of a controversial topic

[@catherinemaxine2079]

My 85 yr grandpa golfs a full course 3x a week, and mows his half acre with a push mower. He eats what he wants. And he’s constantly keeping his mind sharp. It’s a stark contrast to those who stop activity in retirement and quickly decline. I can only hope and plan to devote my time to keep that drive at that age.

[@Relizabeth1]

I love your channel for health stuff and appreciate how you covered this with such care.

[@brendaalder1549]

Thank you for this.

[@lucasley20]

Yes, most of these tragedies are linked to the mental health illness epidemic! Thank you for sharing your perspective!

[@solson6845]

I like how you explained that firearms etc must have humans to become dangerous. I enjoyed the analysis and it is a good example to remind us all to be physically active. I miss Whatcom County as that is where I was raised.

[@themadennis]

Thank you for pointing out these facts. I don’t think I could move so fast and I’m 62.

[@phoenixgirl11]

Great episode

[@Jey36912]

What blows my mind is there is people out there that’s saying it’s staged.

[@Shellbee22]

Lunatics

[@davidhick4303]

I don’t believe one way or the other but could you tell me why it couldn’t possibly be staged? Besides the obvious fact that it seems far fetched, it seems to me that it would be easy to stage and massively advantageous for Trump. My biggest question is why was that building rooftop not covered by security? 130 yards is stupid close. The fact that security missed covering that roof seems nearly as hard to believe as it is to believe it was staged.

[@Leester-70]

I'll bet a venn diagram with those people and flat Earthers is closely aligned.

[@jamescadzow9545]

This was totally fake it was all staged in order for people to feel sorry for him. Narcissists love to play the victim and he's a great actor.

The "shoe test" first demonstrated by W during a press conference should be standard for presidents.

[@LJOBOYLE]

Thanks for your thoughtful review.

[@triciah59]

There is a lot of heartless people that show their true colors when it comes to politics. The world needs more civility. You did an excellent job at staying neutral and I hope you won’t be dragged for giving your scientific observation.

[@margienung9788]

Thank you, you are appreciated. It’s really hard to say anything these days without having to “ walk on egg shells” someone is always triggered. It’s time we get back to civility and recognizing that we are all human and treat each other again with respect. You have always strived to be objective and science based which is very important. No one gets it right 100% of the time, but we are to test everything and hold on to what’s good. Thanks for all the years of fascinating content! Please don’t allow a few comments to deter you in anyway from speaking.

Let's keep in mind Trump is almost 80. His mind is sharp for his age.

[@luzaguirre2830]

Amazing insight

[@AD-wm9if]

Keep in mind that during his time at the white house Trump talked about eating mcdonalds because the food is already made before he shows up, and how he trusts it to be sanitary. Since leaving Trump looks like he lost at least 30lbs, not to mention he's out walking, golfing in the sun regularly. He had good acuity for a politician in general let alone someone over 70.

[@anagabriellat8281]

Great analysis. Donald Trump is sharp and seeing him recover from this horrible event with such stamina and determination is impressive! He isn’t only physically strong, but also mentally and spiritually strong. It’s inspiring.

Trump has always struck me as one of those fat but fit guys. I've been in that body state before. I could run a marathon 40 pounds overweight. Have done so in fact. As I've heard before, the physical metrics are correlated with but don't necessarily cause the positive effect. Free will is where it starts. Trump gushes conviction, whatever else you may think about him. That tends to manifest in the flesh. It's all real, especially your thoughts.

Great video! Thank you for speaking to this. People are trying to say age is the issue but I know extremely sharp 85 yr olds and even those in their 90’s. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see the health and mental differences between Biden and Trump. I think anyone voting for Biden at this point with his extreme mental decline (which was clear even in 2020) should really question their sanity.

[@BellofattoBrews]

Appreciate the different point of view on this issue.

[@helencooney1363]

Interesting take. I was also interested in watching the reactions of Trump and citizens at the rally. In a video from a slightly different angle there's a woman close by who happened to be recording the crowd on her light coloured mobile phone... she's holding it up to her face. It takes her a few seconds after the gunshots to react and duck down, showing how less present in the moment she was than those around her. Something to learn from that too perhaps.
