President Donald Trump had an annual physical Friday and concluded, “I did well,” praising his own heart, soul and cognitive ability while noting medical reports from White House doctors may not be ready until the weekend.
The 78-year-old, who in January became the oldest in U.S. history to be sworn in as president, spent nearly five hours at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center undergoing what he called “every test you can imagine.
“I was there for a long time,” Trump said. “I think I did very well.”
Despite long questioning predecessor Joe Biden’s physical and mental capacity, Trump has routinely kept basic facts about his own health shrouded in secrecy — shying away from traditional presidential transparency on medical issues. He said he believes the doctor’s report on his latest physical would be ready on Sunday — though, if history is any indication, that may offer little more than flattery with scarce detail.
Trump went straight from the examination to Air Force One to fly to Florida for the weekend. Speaking to reporters midflight, he said doctors offered him “a little bit” of advice on lifestyle changes that could improve his health, though he didn’t elaborate on what that was.
”Overall, I felt I was in very good shape. A good heart, a good soul, a very good soul,” Trump said. He also noted that he took a cognitive test. “I don’t know what to tell you other than I got every answer right,” he said.
The finished medical report would be the first public information on Trump’s health since an assassination attempt against him in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July.
Rather than release medical records at that time, Texas Rep. Ronny Jackson — a staunch supporter who served as his White House physician and once joked in the White House briefing room that Trump could live to be 200 if he had a healthier diet — wrote a memo describing a gunshot wound to Trump’s right ear.
In a subsequent interview with CBS last August, Trump said he’d “very gladly” release his medical records, but never did.
Trump is three years younger than Biden. But on Inauguration Day of his second term in January, Trump was five months older than Biden was during his 2021 inauguration — making Trump the nation’s oldest president to be sworn into office.

How can you tell he’s lying?
Every single time he opens up that big fat yapper of his.
He does not have a good heart since he has to take artery anti clogging medicine from all the **** he eats.

Of course he did well.
According to him.
And no doubt the cognitive test was made super easy tailored to helping him pass!
“What is this a picture of, Mr. Trump?”
“I need some help.”
“Starts with b and ends with l.”
“A ballon.”
“Tale away the loon. What’s left?”
15 minutes later
“A ball.”
“Yes! That’s right!”
“Any more pictures?”
“No sir. That’s all. You did excellent and passed.”

lol, "Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV. I remembered those words. They said it was the most remarkable thing they'd ever seen. Nobody in history could ever remember five words before.
They said I must have elephant DNA because elephants never forget, they never forget. I met an elephant at the zoo once and it said, 'Sir, you have the best memory I've ever seen in my elephant life. You will be king someday.' That was a smart elephant." -
