Republican Trump, 78, has repeatedly boasted about his own vigor since starting a second term, while mocking his 82-year-old Democratic predecessor Joe Biden as decrepit and mentally unfit for office.
“I felt I was in very good shape. Good heart,“ Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One, adding that “I took a cognitive test. I don’t know what to tell you other than I got every answer right.”
“I have never felt better, but nevertheless, these things must be done!” Trump said on Truth Social earlier this week.
Stating that he underwent both cardio and cognitive tests, Trump said a report would be released by his doctor on Sunday.
“I can confirm the president is in very good shape, as you see on a near daily basis,“ Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters earlier.
Trump is a prolific golfer who abstains from alcohol and cigarettes.
‘Healthiest individual’
In 2015, during Trump’s first presidential run, his doctor Harold Bornstein released a letter saying the tycoon “unequivocally, will be the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency.”
The White House doctor in his first term, Ronny Jackson, said in 2018 that with a healthier diet Trump could “live to be 200 years old.”
A year later, an exam found the 6-foot-3 (1.9 meter) Trump weighed 243 pounds (110 kilograms), up seven pounds since shortly before taking office, making him technically obese. It said he was taking medication to treat high cholesterol.
Age became a major issue in the 2024 election when Trump and Biden faced off as the oldest major party candidates in history.
Since returning to office Trump has repeatedly compared his own vigor to Biden’s, while the White House has accused the previous administration of covering up what it says was the Democrat’s decline.
