Trump Says He's in "Perfect" Health, Admits High Aspirin Use and No Regular Exercise. US President Donald Trump says he is in "perfect" health, despite public debate over his age and physical condition. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, the 79-year-old president said he has taken 325 milligrams of aspirin daily for 25 years far more than doctors usually recommend — even though it causes him to bruise easily. Trump also confirmed he underwent a CT scan in October, correcting earlier claims that it was an MRI. His doctor said the scan showed no cardiovascular abnormalities. The president acknowledged he does not exercise regularly, aside from golfing, saying workouts are "boring" He also revealed he uses makeup to cover bruises on his hands and declined wearing compression socks after being diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency. Trump dismissed claims that he falls asleep in meetings, saying he simply closes his eyes to relax. His doctor concluded Trump is in "exceptional health" and fit to serve.
