He insists he feels ‘the same’ as he did in his 30s. #TrumpHealth

One possible explanation is simply due to the President’s age, as he is set to make history later this year when he turns 80, having already cemented his place as the oldest president ever inaugurated in US history.

He underwent his routine physical back in April 2025, before being called back for a ‘scheduled follow-up’ in October 2025, that included undertaking enhanced imaging.

Initially, Trump told reporters tha he had undergrone I, but a later interview with the wall stret jornal corrected this, when it stated he had actually undergone a CT scan of his heart and abdomen.

Reflecting on his decision to undergo the scan at the time, Trump admitted he regretted ever having gone through with it, despite not detecting anything untoward.

“In retrospect, it’s too bad I took it because it gave them a little ammunition,” Trump said. “I would have been a lot better off if they didn’t, because the fact that I took it said, ‘Oh gee, is something wrong?’ Well, nothing’s wrong.”
