US President Donald Trump has sparked fresh debate about his health following the release of MRI scan results earlier this week. Multiple reports claimed that the POTUS was dealing with ‘fatigue’ and other age-related health concerns, despite vehement clarifications from the White House. The Oval Office has now released its November logs to reveal that Trump worked ‘up to 12 hours’ for at least 10 days last month.
The logs reveal that Trump has been averaging around 50-hour workweeks, excluding weekend duties, New York Post reported.
The White House has vehemently refuted recent claims made by media reports suggesting that Trump has been experiencing fatigue and decline in his capacity due to his old age.
What else do the logs show?
According to New York Post, the records highlighted Trump’s packed schedule, dealing with issues including trade and immigration reforms, efforts to mediate the Russia-Ukraine conflict, and overseeing significant renovations at the White House.
The logs showed that Trump routinely starts work before 11 am on most days and conducts numerous phone calls, meetings, and media interviews, including international calls to address foreign tensions.
White House publishes Trump’s health report
The White House has also released Trump’s health report. The report highlighted the status of his heart and abdomen.
Captain Sean Barbabella, the president’s doctor, confirmed that the President “remains in excellent health”, stating that the advanced imaging of Trump’s heart and abdomen came back “perfectly normal.”
Trump’s stamina’s lauded
Chief of Staff Susie Wiles praised Trump’s stamina and work ethic, noting his energy rises with increased activity and that the president frequently takes unplanned calls early in the morning and late at night. The White House also emphasised Trump’s social media activity and around-the-clock engagement on various issues as proof that he remains deeply engaged.
Trump’s past health troubles
Trump has been spotted with swollen ankles and seen dozing off in meetings. Earlier this year, the White House confirmed that he had been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency, a vein condition that can lead to swelling in the legs. He had even sparked death rumours earlier this year after vanishing from the public eye for two weeks.
