  • President Donald Trump's first annual physical exam of his second term revealed he is in "excellent" health, according to a report released by the White House.
  • The exam, conducted at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, showed Trump scored a perfect 30/30 on a cognitive test, contradicting prior criticisms and concerns.
  • At 78, Trump is the oldest person to be inaugurated as president. His weight was recorded as 224 lbs, classifying him as overweight, though the report emphasized his overall physical fitness.
  • Trump's blood pressure was reported as elevated but not yet high, and he is currently taking medications to control his cholesterol levels, which are within the optimal range.
  • This recent physical contrasts with previous reports and controversies surrounding Trump's health, including disputed weight figures and a dictated medical letter during his 2015 campaign.
