Donald Trump Says He Could Live To 200 With His 'Incredibly Good Genes' If He Cuts Junk Food

President Donald Trump has never claimed to follow a textbook diet. But when it comes to longevity, he continues to point to something he believes matters more than what's on the plate: genetics.

Speaking Friday at a White House event honoring the U.S. Naval Academy football team, Trump revisited a familiar claim about his health while referencing his former White House doctor.

Trump Repeats Claim About Living To 200

During the event, Trump brought up former White House physician Ronny Jackson, now a Republican congressman, and repeated what he said Jackson told him.

"He took a lot of heat for this," Trump said. "They said, ‘Who is the healthiest of the three?' He said, ‘President Donald J Trump by far. If he didn't eat junk food, he'd live to 200 years old.' And I love this guy."

Dr. Ronny Jackson, the drug addled Dr. Feelgood.

As far as longevity goes Trump's daddy made it to his 90's but had dementia in the end.

1. Could he STFU? The country is in dire need of a leader and if he lives to be 500 years old, it ain't him
