President Donald Trump used a Cabinet meeting on Tuesday to blast the press for what he said is obsessive scrutiny of his health while giving Joe Biden a free pass during Biden’s time in office. He argued that the media is recycling baseless storylines because it cannot pin genuine scandals on him.
Speaking to reporters in the room, Trump complained that journalists repeatedly float questions about his condition. “But you always find something new. Like, is he in good health?” he said, noting that the same reporters showed little urgency when concerns were raised about Biden. “The guy didn’t do a news conference for eight months. If I go one day … ‘There’s something wrong with the president.’ You people are crazy,” he added.
Trump said he fields questions constantly and that critics are simply manufacturing narratives. “I sit here, I do news — four news conferences a day. I answer questions from very intelligent lunatics. You people,” he joked, before adding, “They always … I give the right answers. There’s never a scandal. There’s never a problem.”
He pointed to his recent physical, saying he voluntarily took a cognitive test even though he was told no other president had previously taken one. The exam, he said, was no pushover. “They said to me, ‘Would you like to take a cognitive test?’” Trump explained, noting that he chose to proceed. “As the doctor will tell you, I aced it … I got every single question right.”
Trump contrasted his own openness with what he described as years of gentle treatment of Biden. “Stories about Biden was in wonderful health,” he said, arguing that the different tone in coverage shows a clear imbalance.
His comments followed the White House release on Monday of additional medical details from his annual physical. According to a memorandum by White House physician Sean P. Barbabella, an MRI conducted last month showed no abnormalities. The imaging evaluation of Trump’s heart and abdominal organs was described as “perfectly normal,” with no indication of inflammation, impaired blood flow, narrowing, clotting, or any other concern.
The president, who is 79, underwent the scans on Nov. 14 and described them at the time as routine. “It’s part of my physical,” he said when asked. “Getting an MRI is very standard.”
Trump again emphasized that he “aced” his cognitive test and dismissed insinuations about his fitness for office. He closed his remarks by returning to familiar territory, once more labeling the 2020 election “fake” and “rigged,” and claiming that missteps under Biden left the country vulnerable.
President Joe Biden was thee most healthiest President in our Nations history.
“Biden” is not even hanging among the Presidents in the White House.
You’re a racist.
