Former President Donald Trump has no problem touting his health to his supporters and critics alike, as it was revealed this week that he's in top shape.
According to The Hill, the former president had a full exam in September by his New Jersey-based physician, Dr. Bruce Aronwald, who said Trump is in "excellent" health.
Not only did Trump's physical health check out, his cognitive health was also in great shape. Coginitive health of current and future presidents has become a hot topic as the nation watches the cognitive decline of President Joe Biden.
"I am pleased to report that President Trump’s overall health is excellent," Aronwald wrote in an update Trump posted to Truth Social. "His physical exams were well within the normal range, and his cognitive exams were exceptional."

Trump's medical labs were noted as "well within the normal limits," and the doctor noted that some of them had improved "in some of the most significant parameters" since his last exam.
The 45th president also enjoys good heart health, and shows no signs of trouble in any cancer screenings.
The doctor noted:
Trump has “reduced his weight through an improved diet and continued daily physical activity, while maintaining a rigorous schedule,” Aronwald wrote, though he did not list the former president’s weight.
"It is my opinion that President Trump is currently in excellent health, and with his continued interest in preventative health monitoring and maintenance, he will continue to enjoy a healthy active lifestyle for years to come," Trump's doctor wrote.

Trump's latest medical report will undoubtedly be used as an advantage against his older, weaker opponent, President Biden.
Biden's health and age-related decline is glaringly obvious to anyone and has sparked renewed concern among major Democratic operatives who believe he won't be able to go head-to-head in a normal campaign against Trump.
Hiding in the basement during the pandemic might have worked in 2020, but it will definitely not work this time around.
Trump continues to dominate GOP primary polling and has taken an increased lead over Biden in some national polling.
