Donald Trump’s Health Under Scrutiny: Is His Cognitive Fitness as Strong as He Claims?
Donald Trump has long maintained that he is in peak health—a statement supported by official medical reports. But recent observations and expert opinions are raising new doubts about his cognitive well-being.
In April, the White House released a medical assessment from Dr. Sean Barbabella, Trump’s personal physician, which declared the former president “fully fit” to serve. The report, which provided a detailed overview of Trump’s physical condition, confirmed that he stands 6’3″ and weighs 224 pounds, with normal results from eye, ear, heart, and throat scans. It also noted that Trump had undergone cataract surgery, was taking various prescribed medications, and had recently had a colonoscopy that revealed a benign polyp and mild diverticulitis. Dr. Barbabella described Trump as being in “robust” physical and neurological health, attributing his well-being to an active lifestyle.
“President Trump exhibits excellent cognitive and physical health and is fully fit to execute the duties of Commander-in-Chief and Head of State,” Dr. Barbabella confidently stated.
However, despite these reassurances, the latest expert analysis and growing concerns from both medical professionals and observers are beginning to cast shadows on the former president’s mental acuity.
