President Donald Trump said he recently underwent an MRI at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center and reported that the results were “perfect,” pushing back against ongoing speculation about his health. Speaking to reporters, he confirmed the scan was part of a routine medical evaluation earlier this month and dismissed claims that it signaled a serious concern.

Trump described the test casually, joking about its thoroughness. “I did, I got an MRI — it was perfect,” he said, adding, “We had an MRI, and the machine, you know, the whole thing, and it was perfect.” When asked why the MRI was ordered, he deflected, saying, “You could ask the doctors.”

According to the White House, the MRI was part of a broader series of routine checkups that began earlier this year. Trump emphasized that his doctors have given him “some of the best reports for the age” and said all findings were normal. “If I didn’t think it was going to be good, I wouldn’t run,” he said, referring to his 2026 reelection campaign.

The comments came amid renewed media speculation about Trump’s physical and cognitive health. In July, the White House addressed reports of swollen ankles and hand bruising, explaining he had chronic venous insufficiency, a common condition in older adults. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said there was “zero indication of any cardiovascular impairment.”

Trump dismissed further questions with confidence, telling reporters, “You people worry too much. If I didn’t feel great, you’d be the first to know — believe me.”
