Trump Clears Up MRI Lie
President Trump pushed back hard Sunday after Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) publicly demanded that the president “release the MRI results.” What started as a political jab quickly turned into a deeper debate over transparency, leadership, and Minnesota’s growing public-safety crisis.
During an exchange with reporters aboard Air Force One, a journalist mentioned Walz’s demand. Trump immediately responded:
“Governor Walz? You mean the incompetent governor?” Trump said. “If they want to release it, that’s fine with me. I’ve got nothing to hide.”
Walz reignited the controversy over Thanksgiving weekend, reposting the demand on X after Trump previously mentioned undergoing an MRI at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. Instead of addressing Minnesota’s real issues, Walz appears more focused on Trump’s medical records.
Trump Points to Minnesota’s Refugee Crisis and Public Safety Breakdown
Trump then highlighted what many Minnesota residents—especially older voters—have been warning about for years: out-of-control refugee policies, rising crime, and weak Democratic leadership.
On Truth Social, Trump blasted Walz for ignoring the growing danger facing Minnesota communities:
“Hundreds of thousands of refugees from Somalia are completely taking over the once-great State of Minnesota. Somalian gangs are roaming the streets looking for ‘prey,’ while law-abiding citizens stay locked in their homes hoping they’ll be left alone,” Trump said.
His comments reflect long-standing public concerns about violent crime, gang activity, and community safety—issues that have become top priorities for voters 50 and older, homeowners, and retirees.
Walz Accuses Trump of ‘Demonizing’ Migrants
Appearing on NBC’s Meet the Press, Walz accused Trump of “demonizing” Somali migrants and insisted the refugee population is made up of “professionals, educators, artists, doctors, lawyers, and entrepreneurs.”
But critics argue that Walz continues to downplay the real problems affecting Minnesota’s neighborhoods—crime, cultural tensions, and years of poor leadership under Democratic governors.
Growing Divide: Leadership or Deflection?
While Walz focuses on Trump’s MRI results, many Minnesotans say the real issue is the state’s safety crisis and the lack of accountability from Democratic leadership. Older voters in particular are asking why state officials are more interested in attacking Trump than confronting the fallout from unchecked immigration policies.
Trump supporters say the president’s willingness to release medical information stands in stark contrast to Walz’s refusal to address public-safety concerns—and that the governor’s political deflection is wearing thin.
