His health has worried people since his campaign. Reports said he could not remember parts of the cognitive exams he claimed to have passed. Since then, he has been seen with strange marks on his right hand. He often looks tired or confused during meetings with world leaders.
Over the past year, he has fallen asleep in public about a dozen times. This happened in Cabinet meetings, during military parades, while meeting essential allies, and even at the Pope’s funeral.
In September, Trump attended 9/11 ceremonies with a sagging mouth and drooping face. Some viewers thought it looked like a stroke.
In October, he got MRI scans at Walter Reed Medical Center. These tests check for tumors, joint injuries, or heart problems. A former White House doctor said four hours for an MRI was longer than usual. Trump said the results were “perfect.”
According to his advisers, almost nothing bothers Trump more than questions about his health, except the Epstein files. When Minnesota Governor Tim Walz asked for his medical records, Trump first said on Air Force One that it was “OK with me” to release them. Then he posted on Truth Social, calling Walz “incompetent.”
The White House physician said the MRI showed Trump is “perfectly normal.” The doctor added, “There is no evidence of arterial narrowing impairing blood flow or abnormalities in the heart or major vessels. The heart chambers are normal in size, the vessel walls appear smooth and healthy, and there are no signs of inflammation, or clotting.”
The bruise on his left hand adds more mystery. It is not the first mark seen in public. His age and repeated public incidents make people watch closely.
Even with reassurances, doubts remain. Trump is the oldest president ever elected. The new bruise and other odd appearances worry people.
