Former President Donald Trump has been declared in “excellent health” by his medical team following a thorough evaluation by 14 specialists. At 78, doctors report strong cardiac, neurological, and general health, along with improved cholesterol and weight loss. However, critics remain skeptical.
Republican strategist Rick Wilson claims Trump shows signs of cognitive decline, pointing to rambling speeches and verbal lapses. He argues that passing a cognitive test doesn’t guarantee mental sharpness, and says Trump may no longer be fit for office.
Journalist Timothy L. O’Brien adds that Trump is haunted by his father’s battle with dementia and may be acting out of fear. He doubts Trump will actually run again, suggesting any continued campaign might be more about ego or denial than intent.
Trump’s recent health disclosures are more detailed than in past campaigns, likely responding to public pressure. But critics say flashy test results can’t replace what’s plainly visible: the real test, they argue, is playing out in public, not on paper.
