Most rashes, if you treat them with the cream, the cream is to treat, not to prevent.
The fact that
Trump's doctor said that it's a preventive cream.
Makes me believe, and of course, I don't know.
I'm not his doctor.
But my top diagnosis now is that he has either basal cell carcinoma, like a skin cancer, or it's showing signs.
So of course, I don't know, but just based on him having the preventive skin treatment.
And so the thing about basal cell carcinoma
The five-year survival rate is practically 100%, okay?
Basal cell carcinoma is actually the most common skin cancer.
80% of skin cancers that are non-melanomas are basal cell carcinomas.
So it's not the big scary one that you think about that will take people out.
He'll very likely, if that's what this is, he'll live until, until, until.
So with basal cell carcinoma, the basal cells are like the bottom cells of the outer layer of your skin.
And if you are someone who has a lot of sun exposure, for example, if you play a lot of golf in the sun, then you are at high risk.
If you don't have much melanin, if you have pale skin or, you know, if your skin is orange, sometimes if your baseline skin is pale, you're at high risk.
And so, you know, with him having pale skin, especially being elderly.
and being someone who's in the sun a lot playing golf, that will put him at high risk.
And he wouldn't be the first president.
President Biden shared that he's had different skin cancers that have been removed.
