President Donald Trump has responded to questions about the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan that he recently received at the Walter Reed Military Medical Center.
Trump said he has “no idea” what doctors were looking for during his recent MRI that was included in his physical in October, The Hill reported.
However, his physician signed off that Trump was in “excellent overall health.”
The president mentioned that he also had a diagnostic test.
The fact that Trump had the test could indicate he’s experiencing a problem, as it isn’t a routine part of a checkup.
Trump was asked about this on Friday while on board Air Force One as he was headed back to his Mar-a-Lago residence.
“I had an MRI,” Trump told reporters in a clip shared to X on Saturday.
“The doctor said it was the best result he has ever seen as a doctor. That’s it”

While Trump reiterated that the results were great, he never disclosed what prompted the test, except to say that it was part of his regular health screening.
“I have no idea what they analyzed,” Trump said.
“But whatever they analyzed, they analyzed it well, and they said that I had as good a result as they’ve ever seen.”
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was asked about it on Wednesday and similarly noted that Trump “remains in exceptional health” following the test.
“As stated in the memo provided on Oct. 10, President Trump received advanced imaging at Walter Reed Medical Center as part of his routine physical examination,” Leavitt said in the briefing room.
“The full results were viewed by attending radiologists and consultants, and all agree that President Trump remains in exceptional physical health, which I know all of you will see with your own eyes this evening when he opens up his dinner to the press,” Leavitt added.
MRI is often used as a noninvasive diagnostic tool when something is wrong, rather than a simple screening, The New York Times reported.
Without a reason given for the test, it’s challenging to know what health problems the 79-year-old may be experiencing, though Trump maintains that he was given a clean bill of health.
Nevertheless, Trump was not about to let this opportunity to troll the press go without making the most of it.
The president said that he “would love to” serve a third term, which is an impossibility given the constitutional two-term limit for presidents.
Trump knows that, but it makes the press lose their minds when he says that he’ll run again.
In fact, when Steven Bannon said “Trump is going to be president in ’28,” which is factually accurate considering that the new president is sworn in in 2029, they were apoplectic.
Trump is not a young man, and it stands to reason that he will experience at least some health problems in the coming years.
The American people need to be informed about the current state of the president’s health, but the media did not hold the same standard when it came to then-President Joe Biden.
As Fox News reported, those closest to him covered for him until it was impossible to do so.
Some, like former Vice President Kamala Harris, continue to keep up the ruse that Biden was entirely in control of his faculties.
“Many people want to spin up a narrative of some big conspiracy at the White House to hide Joe Biden’s infirmity,” Harris said in her book, “107 Days,” which was released to exonerate herself from the massive failure that was her presidential campaign.
“Here is the truth as I lived it.
“Joe Biden was a smart guy with long experience and deep conviction, able to discharge the duties of president.
“On his worst day, he was more deeply knowledgeable, more capable of exercising judgment, and far more compassionate than Donald Trump on his best.
“But at 81, Joe got tired,” Harris wrote.
Whatever the issue was, Trump said he received a clean bill of health.
He has been performing all of his usual duties, and he seems to be completely capable of keeping up with his rigorous schedule as president.
When there is something to worry about, Trump will tell the American people, unlike his predecessor.
