Questions About President Trump's Health

Introduction

People are talking about President Donald Trump's health. They want to know if the White House tells the truth about his medical visits.

Main Body

The President went to a dentist in Florida. The White House said this was a normal visit. But the visit was not on the public list. Dr. Jonathan Reiner says the President has a dentist at the White House. He thinks the government should be more honest. Some people see problems with the President's body. His feet are swollen. He has bruises on his hands. He takes a lot of aspirin every day. Some people also saw a video. They think the President looked very tired at a meeting. The White House says the President is very healthy. They say his brain tests are perfect. But a past doctor, Harold Bornstein, says the President wrote his own health reports. This makes some people doubt the official news.

Conclusion

The President did not have a full health check since April 2025. People are still worried about his health.

🟒 THE "DESCRIBING PEOPLE" KIT

Look at how we talk about a person's body and feelings in this text. To reach A2, you need to move from basic words to descriptive words.

1. Body State (How it looks)

  • Swollen β†’ Too big / puffy (e.g., "His feet are swollen").
  • Bruises β†’ Dark marks on the skin from a hit.
  • Tired β†’ No energy / sleepy.

2. The "Health" Vocabulary

  • Medical visit β†’ A trip to the doctor.
  • Check β†’ A test to see if you are okay.
  • Reports β†’ Papers with official information.

3. Contrast: Truth vs. Doubt In A2 English, we use these opposites to show a conflict:

  • The Truth (Real facts) ↔\leftrightarrow Doubt (Not sure / not believing).
  • Official (From the government) ↔\leftrightarrow Personal (From one person).

πŸ’‘ Quick Tip: Notice the phrase "a lot of." Incorrect: He takes many aspirin. Better: He takes a lot of aspirin. (Use this for things you cannot count easily!)
