A White House insider has revealed how Donald Trump has been getting furious over the ongoing rumours about his health. The 79-year-old US President, who is currently in his second term of leadership, has been facing severe questions about his physical and cognitive health.
Several experts have been claiming that the US President is projecting that he's actually anxious someone is going to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove him from office on mental capacity grounds. Trump biographer Michael Wolff explains what he is trying to do to make headlines and win favour for the elections.

Mr Wolff said in the interview with Daily Beast: “In these conversations that I've been having, they kind of trace this, that they're beginning in the fall. He started to see that, you know, there was coming, coming up to the one-year mark, in which, in which we would then fight, he would have to fight, and the Republicans would have to fight the midterm election.
“So in the midterm elections, just our our will be our November 3rd, 2026. He was starting to feel it and starting to say, to say, that he was, he would say, if we lose, we could be ‘finished, finished, finished’. He has this thing.
“He likes to repeat the same word. Epstein, Epstein, Epstein? And then he would go on and with some almost self-awareness, he would go on to cite the problems that they were having, which are our jobs. On his health, or as he said, the Dem saying, ‘I'm Joe Biden senile’.
“He has a sense that this is probably one that they could lose the house and then even acknowledging the possibility that they could lose the Senate, which he says, then I'm back in court, won't be pretty.”
Recent reports have prompted speculation about President Trump’s health after observers noted bruising on his hands and instances where he appeared fatigued.

Mr Trump has firmly dismissed these concerns, insisting that his health is “perfect.” He explained that the marks on his hands are simply the result of taking daily aspirin rather than any underlying medical issue.
He also rejected claims that he had dozed off during meetings, saying that footage suggesting this was misleading and that he remains fully alert and engaged.
