Trump says he 'just finished' a physical at Walter Reed [View all]

Source: Reuters

July 11 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Saturday that he ​had "just finished" a physical ‌at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, without specifying when ​the exam was ​conducted.

It was not clear whether ⁠Trump had a new ​physical or he was referring ​to the one he had in late May, following which he said "everything ​checked out perfectly."

"I just ​finished a perfect physical at Walter ‌Reed, ⁠I do it every six months, and I requested another Cognitive Test, the ​only President ​to ⁠do so, three times, and I aced ​them all — Got ​every ⁠question right," Trump, who turned 80 in June, wrote ⁠in ​a Truth Social ​post.

Trump: “I just finished a perfect physical at Walter Reed, I do it every 6 months, and I requested another Cognitive Test, the only President to do so, three times, and I aced them all — Got every question right. Few people in DC could do so, including Maggot and her flunky associate, Jonathan Swan”
