The US president undergoes routine examinations at Walter Reed and launches a new jab at Biden: ‘I took the cognitive test, I answered all the questions well’
‘In general, I feel that I’m in very good shape, a good heart, a good soul.’ With these words, US President Donald Trump described his state of health while speaking to reporters after undergoing his annual check-up at the Walter Reed Military Hospital in Washington. The examinations included a cognitive test, personally requested by the president.
Trump, 78, wanted to emphasise the difference with his predecessor and current political opponent Joe Biden, stating: ‘I wanted to be a little bit different from Biden, I took a cognitive test. I don’t know what to tell you except that I answered all the questions well’.
A statement that directly recalls what happened last July, when Biden, at the end of the NATO summit in Washington and fresh from a disastrous televised debate with Trump, had been the protagonist of a series of gaffes and lapses that had raised doubts about his lucidity. On that very occasion, Trump had ironically proposed to the then president that he and he undergo a cognitive assessment.
‘I feel great cognitively, I’m perfect,’ the tycoon, now back in the White House after winning the November 2024 election, had said. ‘I do routine tests, I just completed a physical and the results are perfect. We will announce them soon,’ he reiterated again.
His words seem to be part of a very precise communication strategy: to emphasise physical vigour and mental lucidity in a political context marked by doubts and tight confrontations ahead of future challenges.
