Trump gets asked what part of his body was scanned in MRI – his response has gone viral
Donald Trump’s response to a question about a recent MRI scan has sparked confusion online. Reporters quizzed the president aboard Air Force One about the test he underwent in October.
The White House had previously stated only that Trump received “advanced imaging” during a visit to Walter Reed. When asked about releasing the results, Trump agreed, comparing it to his “perfect” impeachment phone call.
A reporter then asked which part of his body the MRI examined. Trump appeared momentarily confused by the question before responding.
He stated, “I have no idea. It was just an MRI.” Trump then asserted it was not of his brain, citing his perfect score on a cognitive test.
The exchange quickly spread on social media, with many users expressing disbelief. They noted patients are typically informed of the specific purpose and area for an MRI.
Comments highlighted that MRIs are not routine and are ordered for specific medical reasons. One user wrote, “Never in the history of medicine was someone given an MRI and it wasn’t explained what part of the body they were looking at.”
The incident has fueled further questions about the transparency of the president’s health. Trump concluded the interaction abruptly, taking no further questions on the matter.
