White House Physician: Trump Has Common Circulatory Condition

According to the Society for Vascular Surgery, the condition affects as many as 40% of Americans, especially women and those who are middle-aged or older.

“The veins, particularly in the lower extremity, are very thin walled structures and they have valves so that when you stand up, all the blood doesn’t rush to your feet, these valves close, but over time these valves can become dysfunctional,” Dr. Niten Signh, a vascular surgeon at the University of Washington, told NPR.

Several X users responded to Trump’s generally positive health report, with some noting how it conflicted with that of his predecessor, former President Joe Biden.

“Funny everyone is so concerned about [the] health of the president who plays golf and does regular press briefings but no one seemed to care about the guy who wandered off into the Amazon and needed help from the Easter rabbit,” one user wrote.

“The Trump administration is being transparent about the President health unlike the Biden administration where there was none except lies,” said another.
