Trump's health report released late Friday night
The White House dropped Trump's annual physical late on a Friday night, and a cardiologist says the document looks cherry-picked and leaves real questions unanswered.
- The report says Trump is fully fit, with excellent cognitive and physical performance, weeks before his 80th birthday.
- A cardiologist notes 22 specialists examined Trump, but the report only shows a short, hand-picked list of findings.
- Trump had a second heart CT scan in six months, which is not standard practice and is not explained.
- The claim that his heart is 14 years younger comes from an unproven AI tool, not real medicine.
- The bruising on both hands is still blamed on handshaking, which does not explain the left hand, and the high aspirin dose is not explained either.
- Last year's report said no leg swelling, this year's calls the swelling "improved," which does not add up.
- Trump took the basic dementia screening test for a fourth time, which gets easier each time since the questions barely change.
Outlook: Expect Trump to brag about acing the cognitive test again, while the unanswered questions about his heart scans, bruising, and aspirin use stay unanswered.
