Dems, media credibility in shambles as press fixates on Trump MRI after years downplaying Biden health issues
Fox News
The White House released President Donald Trump's MRI scan results after mounting questions about his health, contrasting with limited coverage of Joe Biden's decline.
Media outlets and others heightened scrutiny of Trump's health earlier in 2025 when he was spotted with swollen legs in July while attending the FIFA Club World Cup final in New Jersey, as well as other photos stretching back to February showing bruising on his hand.
The media has most recently been focused on an MRI scan Trump received during a checkup at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Maryland in October, which was described as routine by the administration, with Trump's physician reporting that Trump is in "exceptional health." The checkup was Trump's second in 2025, following an April visit that Navy Capt. Sean P. Barbabella, the physician to the president, said found Trump "remains in excellent health."
