Trump's Health Claims Spark Debate
President Donald Trump and his team have often talked about his health, saying he is very healthy and strong.
Some doctors and people close to him have said he is the healthiest president ever.
But others, including some people who work with him, are not so sure.
They point to things like him falling asleep during meetings and eating a lot of unhealthy food.
Trump himself says he is in great shape and takes a lot of aspirin to keep his blood thin.
Some people believe him, while others are not convinced.
Trump and his administration have repeatedly claimed he is in excellent health.
Dr. Harold Bornstein initially praised Trump's health but later admitted Trump dictated the letter.
Dr. Ronny Jackson stated Trump was in excellent health and passed a cognitive exam.
Stephen Miller described Trump as having superhuman abilities, which was met with skepticism.
Trump compares his health favorably to former Presidents Obama and Bush.
