New note from doctor says Trump's health is excellent

New note from doctor says Trump's health is excellent

His blood pressure and cholesterol are within normal levels, as is his testosterone level.

Aides had said that Trump would not discuss the results of his recent physical with Oz, but the businessman went ahead and handed him the documents. This was perhaps an acknowledgment that Trump's "manliness" has come up before, particularly when the candidate defended the size of his hands, among other things, during a primary debate in March.

In the AMA's policy on how physicians should conduct themselves in the media, the AMA seems a tad concerned about Dr. Oz's "personal opinions", according to Forbes.

The TV doctor did tell Trump that he was a little overweight, and Trump said that he would like to lose 15-20 pounds.

"If I had one thing, I'd like to lose weight".

Ultimately, the celebrity doctor gave him a clean bill of health.

Trump also took a swipe at Clinton's health during a rally in Canton, Ohio, on Wednesday night, telling the crowd, "You think Hillary would be able to stand up here for an hour and do this?"

Trump, who spent over a decade hosting NBC's reality competition show "The Apprentice" before launching his presidential bid, has used similar strategies in attempts to control media narratives.

The Trump campaign said the note shows the GOP nominee has "the stamina to endure - uninterrupted - the rigors of a punishing and unprecedented presidential campaign and, more importantly, the singularly demanding job of President of the United States".

The two-page letter by Dr. Lisa Bardack notes the Clinton was diagnosed with a sinus and ear infection earlier in the year, but describes Clinton as being generally "healthy and fit".

The oldest elected presidents in the last four decades were, in order, Ronald Reagan, who was 69 when he took office, George H.W. Bush, who was 64, Gerald Ford, who was 61 and George W. Bush, who was 54.

Judging by the way Trump appears on the campaign trail, "he appears to be healthy", Lincoln said. "It's a pretty healthy act, and I really enjoy doing it". If I weren't happily married and, ya know, her father... "I feel as good today as I did when I was 30", he said, going on to compare himself to his friend Tom Brady, the New England Patriots quarterback. "It's very private. It is all very private stuff", Trump said.
