The White House released President Donald Trump’s latest medical results, stating he *“remains in excellent health.”* Capt. Sean Barbabella, the White House physician, credited Trump’s *“active lifestyle”* and frequent public engagements, including *“frequent victories in golf events,”* for maintaining his well-being.
Trump, now 78, underwent a full physical and neurological exam. His weight dropped from 244 pounds in 2020 to 224 pounds, with blood pressure at 128/74. The neurological test showed *“no abnormalities in his mental status.”*
Barbabella concluded, *“President Trump exhibits excellent cognitive and physical health and is fully fit to execute the duties of the Commander-in-Chief and Head of State.”*The report also mentioned a July 2024 colonoscopy that found diverticulosis and a benign polyp. Additionally, the physician noted *“scaring [sic] on the right ear from a gunshot wound,”* referencing the assassination attempt in July 2024.
This update was shared after the press secretary promised to release details *“as soon as we possibly can.”* While Trump is three years younger than Biden, he was five months older than Biden was during his first inauguration when Trump began his second term in January.
