President Donald Trump offered a detailed glimpse into his health and daily habits in a lengthy Wall Street Journal interview, acknowledging he takes more aspirin than recommended, uses makeup to cover bruising, and avoids regular exercise because he finds it “boring.”
Trump, 79, also clarified an earlier health claim. After telling reporters in October that he had undergone an MRI scan, he told the Journal he had actually received a CT scan.
The public discussion around his health and age has visibly frustrated the president, who described his condition as “perfect.”
Despite his assertion, signs of age have become a subject of public note: he is the oldest president inaugurated in U.S. history and has at times appeared to fall asleep during meetings or struggle to hear questions.
