President Trump Hits 80: Defying Age, Outworking Biden, Dem Critics Astonished!
Senator Ted Cruz, R-Texas, 55, a former Trump primary opponent, marveled, “At least to date, he has seemed to utterly defy age. I don’t know where he gets the energy that he displays, but he is up early in the morning and late at night.” Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, 82, added, “He has gained in stamina as he has gotten older.”
Unlike Biden, whose age and mental fitness were frequently scrutinized, Trump and his allies highlight his demanding public schedule, frequent media engagements, and hands-on approach to governance as proof of his continued engagement. Trump’s physician, Dr. Sean Barbabella, declared him in “exceptional” health, with a cardiac age “approximately 14 years younger than his chronological age.” Trump himself emphasized his excellent health and cognitive abilities, recounting a perfect score on a cognitive test he described as “tough.” He drew a parallel to special counsel Robert Hur’s description of Biden as a “sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,” asserting his own strong memory.
