Summary
The latest presidential physical reports have sparked national debate, as both Joe Biden and Donald Trump—now the oldest presidents in U.S. history—receive clean bills of health, though Biden joked about looking youthful and Trump was urged to hit the gym.

Trump even shared his bruised hand from handshakes, declaring everything “perfect” on social media. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
