Trump Says MRI 'Perfect,' Underwent Cognitive Testing

President Donald Trump said aboard Air Force One that he underwent an MRI at Walter Reed during a recent secondary physical, calling the results “perfect” and doctors’ report “very conclusive.” The White House has not explained why the MRI was ordered beyond earlier disclosures that he was examined for leg swelling and diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency, and medical briefings described his results as “exceptional” or among “the best reports for the age.” The MRI—an imaging test not typically part of a routine physical—along with disclosed cognitive testing prompted fresh questions about transparency and online speculation. Observers also expressed concern about his mental fitness and visible bruising on his hand. At 79, Trump is traveling overseas and again declined to rule out a 2028 presidential bid while deflecting deeper probing of his health.
