General Discussion

I've seen lots of speculation about that and was intrigued by the possibility myself at one time. Howver, I have come to believe that it's wildly unlikely. I could certainly see him contracting syphilis, but the disease has been 100% curable for virtually Schlump's entire life. The likelihood of a man with his wealth and access to top tier medical care going undiagnosed and untreated for decades seems pretty farfetched to me.

Come to think of it, most states required a blood test for syphilis (and sometimes other things) to get a marriage license at one time. All those laws were eventually repealed as it became apparent that syphilis was no longer a major public health problem, but New York still had such a law until 1985. That means Donald would have gotten tested at least once in his life, when he married Ivana in 1977. And if he got it later on, it's hard to believe it wouldn't have been picked up at some point.

If you were just joking, I apologize for being too literal minded. Even so, I know there is still a question about this in at least some people's minds, and it never hurts to remind everyone of the facts.
