Trump has a lot of energy for his age. But he’s not getting any younger.
And President Trump fired off a shocking update about his health.
President Trump shot back at the doubters early Friday, boldly proclaiming his rock-solid physical condition after a hard-hitting Wall Street Journal piece dug into his health during the first year of his triumphant second term.
In a fiery post on Truth Social, the 79-year-old leader didn’t mince words:
“The White House Doctors have just reported that I am in ‘PERFECT HEALTH,’ and that I ‘ACED’ (Meaning, was correct on 100% of the questions asked!), for the third straight time, my Cognitive Examination, something which no other President, or previous Vice President, was willing to take.”
Trump didn’t stop there, slamming the idea of weak leadership: “P.S., I strongly believe that anyone running for President, or Vice President, should be mandatorily forced to take a strong, meaningful, and proven Cognitive Examination.” He added, “Our great Country cannot be run by ‘STUPID’ or INCOMPETENT PEOPLE!”
This comeback came hot on the heels of the Journal’s Thursday report, which spotlighted Trump’s no-nonsense chat about his bruises, hearing, and a recent CT scan, proving once again that the fake news can’t keep a good man down.
As Trump gears up to hit 80 on June 14, he shrugged off those dark bruises on his hands, pinning them squarely on his daily aspirin routine. He told the Journal his docs pushed for the baby version, but he’s stuck with the full-strength one for years.
“They say aspirin is good for thinning out the blood, and I don’t want thick blood pouring through my heart,” Trump explained to the outlet. “I want nice, thin blood pouring through my heart. Does that make sense?”
Clearing up the mix-up, Trump and his doc, Dr. Sean Barbabella, set the record straight: it was a CT scan at Walter Reed on October 10, not an MRI like some reports claimed.
“I would have been a lot better off if they didn’t [do the scan], because the fact that I took it said, ‘Oh gee, is something wrong?’” Trump shot back to the Journal. “Well, nothing’s wrong.”
Dismissing the haters’ whispers about hearing troubles in meetings, Trump called it all bunk, and those viral pics of him supposedly nodding off? Just him blinking, folks—nothing more.
Back in July, the White House came clean on Trump’s chronic venous insufficiency, that circulation snag causing leg swelling, but the president’s handling it like a champ.
He gave compression socks a shot to fix it, but ditched them quick: “I didn’t like them.”
Dr. Barbabella jumped in with a strong endorsement after the Journal story dropped, declaring Trump “remains in exceptional health and perfectly suited to execute his duties as Commander in Chief.”
If Trump powers through his full term, he’ll wrap up in January 2029 as the oldest president ever, edging out sleepy Joe Biden’s record by a hair—and showing America what real stamina looks like.
This whole saga just proves Trump’s unbreakable spirit, facing down the media machine that’s always gunning for him while he fights for the forgotten men and women of this nation.
In the end, Trump’s health update isn’t just personal—it’s a battle cry against the elites who want feeble puppets in charge, reminding us why we need a fighter like him at the helm.
