Trump underwent the first medical examination during his second term news


US President Donald Trump, who last January, was greater than taking over the presidency in the United States, to his first physical examination in his second term -yesterday, Friday -and said he followed well and that the results would be announced tomorrow, Sunday.

Reuters says Trump, who will be 79 years old in June, is known for his love for fast food, but he often talks about his physical and mental health.

Trump spent several hours being examined by doctors at the Walter Reed Medical Center in Maryland, then told reporters on the presidential plane, “I think I have done well, I think they will issue a report on Sunday.”

Trump added that he also had a cognitive test and all his answers were correct.

“In general, I felt that I was in very good condition. A good heart, a good spirit, and very good morale, I chose to be a little different from Biden. I underwent a cognitive test, and I do not know what to tell you only that I answered all the answers correctly.”

The medical examination may provide the first clarification of Trump’s health condition since he suffered a superficial injury in his ear from a bullet in an assassination attempt during an electoral gathering in Pennsylvania last July. His campaign published a report prepared by Ronnie Jackson, a former White House doctor and a member of the Republican Congress from Texas, in which he said that the injuries were superficial.

The White House usually determines the data that will be published from the president’s health examination, knowing that Trump is not obligated to disclose any information and there is no specific model for conducting the presidential examination. Trump only disclosed limited information about his health during his presidential campaigns.

Cognition evaluation

A White House doctor said in 2018 – during the first term of Trump – that his health in general is excellent, but he needs to lose weight and start practicing a daily exercise routine.

When it was asked yesterday, Friday – whether the medical team had suggested any changes to its customs, the president said they suggested “a little”, but he did not provide further details.

Trump underwent a cognitive test, the cognitive Montreal evaluation, as part of his physical examination during his first term, and his doctor later said that he obtained 30 out of 30.

Former President Biden issued detailed summaries of his physical examinations while he was taking office, but many books published in the past few months raised questions about his mental abilities in his last months in the White House.

The mental ability of former President Joe Biden and Trump and their age was the focus of attention during the election campaign last year, especially after Biden’s catastrophic performance in a debate with Trump last June, as well as Trump’s speeches that were increasingly dispersed in electoral communities.
