Stephen Colbert Questions Health Concerns After Trump's 'Perfect' MRI Scan

Stephen Colbert raised concerns about President Donald Trump's recent MRI scan during a routine checkup at Walter Reed Medical Center, pointing out that MRIs are typically conducted when doctors suspect a medical issue rather than as standard procedure. Despite Trump boasting about his "perfect" MRI results, the White House has not disclosed why the scan was ordered, a lack of transparency Colbert found unsettling. The comedian also mocked Trump's confusion between a cognitive test he took and an IQ test, clarifying that the cognitive exam screens for signs of decline rather than intelligence. Colbert humorously speculated on the scan’s purpose, referencing Trump's past claims about bone spurs and joking about "Epstein files" appearing in a fabricated image. The host’s critiques come amid broader tensions between Colbert and Trump, including speculation about Colbert's show cancellation and Trump's involvement. Overall, Colbert's commentary fueled public speculation about the true state of Trump's health and the administration's reluctance to provide details.
