Trump declared 'fully capable' in pre-80th birthday health assessment

U.S. President Donald Trump has received a clean bill of health after a thorough medical examination. Conducted by 22 specialists, the assessment declared him 'fully capable' of carrying out his presidential duties. The results come just weeks before his 80th birthday, making him the oldest person ever elected to the office. The examination included cognitive testing, where Trump scored a perfect 30 out of 30 on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). This standard screening tool checks for signs of dementia and other cognitive decline.

Doctors noted his weight had risen to 108 kilograms (238 pounds), an increase of six kilograms since his last checkup in 2025. His body mass index (BMI) now stands at 29.7, just below the obesity threshold. As a result, they advised him to adjust his diet, exercise more, and lose weight. Minor swelling in his lower legs, caused by chronic venous insufficiency, showed improvement compared to last year. Bruising on his hands was attributed to frequent handshakes and regular aspirin use. Overall, his cardiovascular, respiratory, and neurological systems were all found to be in good condition.

The medical team confirmed Trump remains in 'excellent health' and fully capable of serving as president. While recommendations were made for dietary and lifestyle changes, the assessment found no major concerns. The results provide an updated overview of his health as he approaches his 80th birthday.
