Trump is nearly 80-years-old, loves steak and Big Macs, was hospitalized with Covid-19, and has been shot, but has maintained his health is fine

Since Donald Trump first emerged on the scene of American politics in 2015, he has refused to provide a glimpse into his medical records.

If Trump, 78, succeeds in November, he will become the oldest person ever to serve as president, ousting the current record-holder, Joe Biden. When his potential second term ends, he will be 82 years old.

Despite his advanced age, Trump has refused to provide any glimpse into his records. When asked about his health in 2015, he provided a four-paragraph letter from his doctor, who claimed he would be the “healthiest person ever elected to the presidency.”

    He could beat Lincoln’s record of oldest president to be assassinated by over 20 years. If that happens then the run is basically dead – whose gonna be older and a bigger piece of shit? That’s TAS only.

      If he just died before the election that’s still best case scenario. Vance would flop against Harris and the coup attempts would have a bit less juice and fervor, I would hope. I don’t even know if the GOP could hold together if that happened

        I think that’s why they were hoping for an assassination.

        They could have gone full “do it for Him!” and got them all riled up.

        It’s a bit less exciting when he dies on the toilet, although no doubt it’d painted as a far-left Jewish trans-agenda toilet that killed him, rather than 70 years of awful diet choices.
