Trump addresses reports of his health condition: "Less than optimal"

In a recent press conference, President Donald Trump addressed concerns about his health that have been circulating among his supporters. The rumors, which spread over the Labor Day weekend on social media, were not based on confirmed news.

The 79-year-old president took the opportunity to criticize both the rumors and the media, labelling them as "fake news." The concerns among Trump's supporters are not related to his death, but rather a lack of confidence in his current condition.

Trump's health has not been officially addressed by him or his team. However, it is known that he is currently being treated by his doctor, Sean Barbabella, for a chronic venous insufficiency, a condition involving blood accumulation in the lower limbs, which is considered benign and common especially in people over 70 years old.

The doubts among Trump's supporters may be influenced by his age, but it's important to note that these concerns are not confirmed news. The recent rumors about Trump's death did not come from his supporters but were widespread on social media.

During the press conference, Trump also ridiculed his predecessor, Joe Biden, adding fuel to the ongoing political discussions. The health concerns among Trump's supporters may be a topic of discussion in future political discussions, potentially impacting his public image and support.

It's crucial to distinguish between speculations and confirmed news, especially when it comes to matters concerning the health of a sitting president. As always, it's advisable to rely on reliable sources for accurate information.
