President Donald Trump faced questions about his well-being following a conference where his voice sounded rough. The incident occurred during a meeting in the Oval Office focused on the USA’s preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, where Trump’s hoarse voice caught the attention of attendees, including a reporter who inquired about his health.
Trump responded by attributing his raspy voice to shouting at individuals over trade-related matters. When further comments were made, Trump humorously dismissed concerns about a polyp, showing his lightheartedness amidst the speculation surrounding his health.
Reports have circulated about the 79-year-old leader’s health since his return to office earlier this year. To address concerns, Trump disclosed details of a recent MRI scan conducted on Air Force One, emphasizing its routine nature and the positive feedback received from his doctor.
Despite ongoing scrutiny, Trump’s press secretary confirmed that medical professionals at Walter Reed Medical Centre had assessed him, affirming his exceptional physical health. Nevertheless, some medical experts have expressed worries about Trump’s physical and mental condition, citing observations of potential cognitive decline over the years.
The White House continues to maintain Trump’s good health status, echoing earlier statements by White House physician Dr. Sean Barbadella attesting to the president’s excellent cognitive and physical well-being.
