A well-known American physician has issued an extraordinary statement regarding President Donald Trump’s health, following months of mounting concern.

When Trump returned to the Oval Office in January 2025, he became the oldest serving president in US history.Throughout 2025, public debate around his health intensified, fueled by limited medical transparency, mixed messaging, and ongoing speculation.And that wasn’t the end of it.

Questions escalated in September after the President disappeared from public view for several consecutive days, with no official events listed during that period.Further alarm was raised when Trump was seen with visible bruising on his hand, marks his staff appeared to deliberately conceal.

Multiple video clips circulating online also prompted discussion about whether the President had briefly fallen asleep during high-level meetings.

Despite these moments, Trump and his press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, have repeatedly insisted that the 79-year-old leader remains in excellent physical condition.

Now, however, a US doctor has come forward with a dramatic claim.

Donald Trump mocks former President Joe Biden

Earlier this week, Trump delivered a speech that was met with complete silence when he mocked former President Joe Biden, who revealed his cancer diagnosis last year.

The incident sparked widespread outrage online, with many accusing Trump of having “sank to a new moral low.”

“You ever notice Joe would always cough before a speech?” Trump said while speaking at the Detroit Economic Club in Michigan.

He then imitated a coughing fit and followed it with a frail-sounding remark: “Ladies and gentlemen…”

“Although the one time they had him spruced up pretty good,” the President added.

“Remember he was high as a kite? He was floating. He was up there way up.

“That was a bad speech.”

Reacting to the clip, one social media user commented: “He didn’t humiliate Biden in that moment. He humiliated himself.”

In another controversial move late last year, Trump removed Biden’s official White House portrait and replaced it with an image of an autopen.

The caption beneath now states: “Sleepy Joe Biden was, by far, the worst President in American history.

“Taking office as a result of the most corrupt election ever seen in the US.”

Trump’s MRI scan

Earlier in the year, speculation intensified when Vice President JD Vance remarked that he was prepared to take over in the event of a “terrible tragedy.”

Then, in July, the President received a medical diagnosis.

The White House confirmed Trump had chronic venous insufficiency, a condition related to impaired blood circulation in the leg veins.

Medical professionals described the condition as common and non-life-threatening.

Nonetheless, online rumors reignited later in the year when the administration revealed that Trump had undergone an MRI scan.

When questioned by reporters aboard Air Force One about the procedure, Trump admitted he “couldn’t remember” which part of his body had been examined.

One online commenter remarked: “He seems to fail to understand an MRI is done when doctors are looking for something they think is serious.”

The White House responds

Trump’s physician, Sean P. Barbabella, later clarified that the scan was conducted as part of a routine full executive medical evaluation.

Meanwhile, press secretary Leavitt defended the President’s condition, saying: “Look, you see the president every day.

“He’s moving, he’s working. There have been no adjustments made to his lifestyle.”

However, a US doctor has now presented what he claims is evidence suggesting the Trump administration concealed a major health event involving the President last year.

Bombshell health allegations

Professor Bruce Davidson of Washington State University has alleged that Trump, now 79, suffered a stroke approximately six months ago.

Speaking on the podcast The Court of History, Davidson said: “I think his stroke was on the left side of the brain, which controls the right side of the body.”

Detailing his reasoning, he added: “There are videos of him shuffling his feet, which is not what we’d seen previously when he was striding on the golf course.

“We’ve seen him holding his right hand cradled in his left.

“Earlier in 2025, he was garbling words, which he hadn’t done before and which he’s improved upon more recently.”

Davidson also noted that both he and thousands of observers had noticed “marked episodes of excessive daytime sleepiness,” a condition medically referred to as hypersomnolence.

Although he did not identify the specific type of stroke, Davidson concluded that the President appears to have made a substantial recovery.
