Trump made get-well call to Jerry Nadler in hospital
AOL.com, Jun 10, 2019, Yahoo News

Putting aside his sharp political differences with one of his primary congressional tormentors, President Trump made a surprising get-well call to Rep. Jerry Nadler, who was briefly hospitalized in Manhattan in May, Yahoo News has learned.

On May 24, Nadler was at an event promoting speed cameras at a school on the Upper West Side of Manhattan when he appeared to grow faint, slumping slightly forward. Sitting next to him, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio offered Nadler water, but the 71-year-old congressman remained apparently dazed. Medical professionals were summoned, and an ambulance transported Nadler to Lenox Hill Hospital, where he spent the night.

But while at Lenox Hill, Nadler received an unexpected call, from Trump. The call has not previously been reported.

I think it was a genuinely nice gesture to someone who looked at death's door earlier in the day.   happy77

Did Trump say "get well soon" or "drop dead?"
