If you haven’t heard, President Joe Biden just turned 81. And Donald Trump was kind enough to give him a gift: a medical release stating that Trump is in “excellent” health.

With Biden officially another year older, there’s no question that his age is getting to him. Of course, we already know that Biden is the oldest sitting president in the history of the United States. Ronald Reagan was the most senior before him, ending his second term at age 77.
Biden will end his first at 82. Should he win a second term, he will be 86.
And while that may not be ancient, there are plenty of signs that he may not be up for doing his job for much longer if he ever really was. In fact, according to a 2018 compiled statistics from the National Institutes of Health, the life expectancy of a white male who reaches age 75 is only about ten more years. This means that should Biden win a second term, there’s a good chance he won’t make it to 2028.
Trump, on the other hand, has plenty of time. Sure, he’s not all that much younger, but he’d be 82 at the end of a second term, making it much more likely that he’s still kicking.
Plus, there is the matter of Trump’s physical and mental health, which, as I mentioned before, is “excellent.”
According to Dr. Bruce Aronwald, Trump’s physician since 2021, Trump’s “overall health is excellent. His physical exams were well within the normal range and his cognitive exams were exceptional.”
He also added that extensive laboratory analysis is “well within normal limits,” and in some of the more “significant parameters,” it was “even more favorable than prior.”
Aronwald attributes this to the fact that Trump has “reduced his weight through an improved diet and continued daily physical activity while maintaining a rigorous schedule.”
His heart and cancer screenings were all normal and negative as well.
All in all, Trump is in perfect health, which is definitely more than we can say about Biden, who still refuses to have any such testing done or released to the public.
If that doesn’t tell you anything, I don’t know what will.
