Trump Declared in “Excellent Health” — But Critics Raise Concerns
President Trump has been declared in “excellent health” by the White House doctor following an extensive April 2025 checkup involving 14 specialists. The report highlighted strong cardiac, neurological, and overall physical function, improved cholesterol, and a 25-pound weight loss. At 78, Trump is the oldest person ever sworn in as president but doesn’t smoke or drink.
However, GOP strategist Rick Wilson is sounding the alarm, citing Trump’s recent public behavior as evidence of possible cognitive decline. “He is incoherent,” Wilson told Times Radio, noting verbal lapses and mental drift not seen in previous years.
Despite passing cognitive screenings, Wilson warns such tests may not capture real-world decline. Journalist Timothy O’Brien echoed concerns, suggesting Trump fears suffering the same cognitive decline his father experienced.
Trump’s health disclosures have become more detailed compared to past campaigns, likely in response to mounting pressure. Still, critics argue test results don’t tell the full story — and whether Trump can finish another term remains an open question.
