Trump claims 'perfect health' and 'aced' cognitive tests but refuses to release detailed medical records

During the 2024 campaign, Trump told CBS he would 'very gladly' release medical records and claimed he received a 'perfect score' on exams and 'aced' cognitive tests. However, he only released vague statements from Dr. Bruce Aronwald describing him in 'excellent health' with no specific data—no blood pressure, cholesterol, weight, or test results. When Kamala Harris released detailed records in October 2024, over 230 doctors signed a letter calling on Trump to release full records. Trump dismissed requests and his campaign attacked the media. Despite decades bragging about 'astonishingly excellent' health and 'incredible genes,' Trump has never published detailed documentation or IQ test scores despite claiming genius intelligence. The refusal exemplified his lifelong pattern: grandiose health claims with complete opacity when transparency is requested.
