US President Donald Trump recently affirmed his health status in an interview, stating, My health is perfect. The 79-year-old addressed ongoing concerns about his age, discussing his medication regimen, which includes taking a higher dosage of aspirin than typically recommended. They say aspirin is good for thinning out the blood, and I don't want thick blood pouring through my heart, he explained, indicating he's been on this routine for 25 years despite suffering bruising as a side effect.
Trump revealed that he underwent a CT scan in October, clarifying that it was less detailed than a prior MRI he incorrectly described to reporters. He expressed irritation with the public's scrutiny regarding his health. Let's talk about health again for the 25th time, he commented, attempting to deflect concerns while insisting he engages in minimal exercise, labeling it boring.
While he admits to avoiding regular workouts except for golfing, he claims that he gets up from his desk more frequently, which has helped alleviate some swelling in his legs. Furthermore, Trump maintains that he does not suffer from hearing issues and dismisses instances where he appeared to doze off in meetings as mere moments of relaxation, explaining, Sometimes they'll take a picture of me blinking.
In response to the dialogue surrounding his health, White House doctor Navy Capt. Sean Barbabella stated that Trump's tests showed no abnormalities and deemed him fit to fulfill his presidential duties. Observers continue to discuss the impact of his age on his performance in office as Trump navigates the complexities of his health amidst a politically charged atmosphere.
