One reporter asked why Trump needed the MRI, something officials in his administration have been reluctant to make public. He replied, “I have the physical every year and the result was outstanding… I have no idea what they analyzed, but whatever they analyze, they analyzed it well and they said that I had as good a result as they’ve ever seen.”

He also praised himself for his performance on the cognitive assessment he was required to take as part of his physical, telling reporters, “As you probably heard, I aced it. I got a perfect score. I got the highest score. I got a perfect score. And the only reason I tell you that is it’s one subject unlike Biden and others that you could take off your plate.”
