Gary Palmer, a Congressman hailing from Alabama, isn’t buying it.

On Monday, he told WAPI, a radio station in his home state, “I’ve got serious doubts as to whether or not it’s pneumonia…if it were pneumonia, I would’ve thought they would’ve come out and said that very early on.”

His skepticism echoes an earlier comment made by Donald Trump. 

During a CNBC interview, the GOP candidate noted, “They say pneumonia…but she was coughing very, very badly, a week ago and even before that...”
