GOP lawmaker immediately fact-checked on CNN after 'celebrating' Trump's honesty

Rep. Randy Fine (R-FL) praised Donald Trump for his "transparency" after the White House disclosed the president has been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency, a condition that causes blood to pool in the veins.

"I think he's been the most transparent president we've ever had," Fine said Thursday on CNN. "You talked about the health conditions -- we had to have Joe Biden's doctor take the Fifth Amendment last week over their lack of transparency."

Host Brianna Keilar asked if Fine was concerned about the president's diagnosis.

"No, I think the president is, you know, a man in his 70s. He's going to have the kinds of conditions that people of that age do. But what I appreciate is the fact that, again, they are being transparent about them."

Fine continued, "I mean, Joe Biden tried to tell us for years there was nothing wrong with his brain when it was obvious there was something to the point that his doctor had to take the Fifth Amendment against self-incrimination of a crime last week. He's basically admitting they committed crimes and covering up Joe Biden's health conditions. So, I think we should all celebrate the fact that Donald Trump is willing to tell us what's going on."

Keilar interjected, "I do just want to note that this disclosure came after his ankles were visibly swollen, and we could see makeup on his hand covering up a bruise, which they say is because of an aspirin regimen and a lot of hand shaking," Keilar said.
