Trump shares doctor’s note for Biden’s 81st birthday.
Former President Donald Trump’s Doctor’s Note Raises Questions About Biden’s Fitness
As President Joe Biden celebrated his 81st birthday, concerns about his age and fitness were brought to the forefront. Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump released a doctor’s note, signed by Bruce Aronwald of the Morristown Medical Group, touting his excellent overall health. However, the note lacked specific details, as pointed out by multiple journalists.

The note did mention that Trump had likely improved his vital signs through weight loss and a better diet, thanks to his rigorous schedule and daily physical activity. It also highlighted his exceptional scores on cognitive tests, normal range performance on physical tests, and normal results on cardiovascular and cancer screening tests.
The physician expressed confidence that Trump would continue to lead a healthy and active lifestyle for years to come, thanks to his interest in preventative health monitoring and maintenance.
Trump shared the note on his Truth Social platform, coinciding with Biden’s 81st birthday, which was overshadowed by concerns about his fitness to serve as commander in chief. Despite questions about Biden’s age and health, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre insisted that there was no cause for alarm behind the scenes.
Both Biden and Trump are running in the 2024 election, with Trump currently leading in GOP primary polls. This sets the stage for a potential rematch of the 2020 general election, even as Trump faces legal challenges.
Biden’s occasional lapses in speech and instances of stumbling or falling caught on camera have raised doubts about his ability to effectively lead. As the oldest person to hold the presidency, Biden would be 86 at the end of a second term. In contrast, Trump, who is 77, faces less concern about his age in polls.
In February, the White House released a health summary from Biden’s physician, Dr. Kevin O’Connor, stating that the president remained healthy, vigorous, and fit for the duties of the presidency. However, the summary also mentioned Biden’s treatment for various conditions, including non-valvular atrial fibrillation, hyperlipidemia, gastroesophageal reflux, seasonal allergies, peripheral neuropathy of feet, and a stiffened gait.
Some Republicans have called for Biden to take a cognitive test or drop out of the 2024 race, noting that there has been no indication of him undergoing such a test during his presidency.
How important are specific measurements and test results in a doctor’s note to establish the validity of claims about good health?
Healthy diet, but did not provide any specific numbers or measurements. This lack of detail raised questions about the validity of the claims made in the note.
Some critics argued that Trump’s doctor’s note was simply a promotional tool to boost his image and deflect attention from concerns about his own fitness during his time as president. They pointed to the fact that the note was released on social media, where it could be easily shared and amplified, rather than through a more traditional and credible method such as a press release.
Furthermore, the timing of the release of the note was also questioned. It came just as Biden’s age and fitness were being discussed and scrutinized. This led some to speculate that Trump and his team were using the note as a way to undermine Biden’s credibility and divert attention away from the current president and towards Trump himself.
The lack of specific details in the note also raised suspicions. Journalists and medical professionals argued that a proper doctor’s note should include specific measurements and test results to back up claims of good health. Without this information, it is difficult to determine the actual state of Trump’s health and whether the claims made in the note are accurate.
In contrast, Biden has been more transparent about his own health. During the election campaign, he released a detailed medical report prepared by his own physician, Dr. Kevin O’Connor. The report included specific measurements and test results, providing a comprehensive picture of Biden’s health.
The contrasting approaches to health transparency between Trump and Biden raise questions about the motivations behind each approach. While critics argue that Trump’s doctor’s note was politically motivated and lacked credibility, Biden’s detailed medical report appeared to be a genuine effort to provide transparency and reassurance about his fitness for office.
In conclusion, the release of Trump’s doctor’s note and the lack of specific details it contained have raised questions about both his own fitness and his motives behind releasing it. The contrasting approach taken by Biden, with his detailed medical report, highlights the importance of transparency when it comes to the health of political leaders. Voters and the public have a right to know about the physical well-being of their elected officials, and it is essential that this information is provided in a comprehensive and credible manner.
