A viral video clip from Tuesday's Cabinet meeting has raised eyebrows as President Donald Trump, 79, appears to doze off while senior officials deliver lengthy speeches. The footage shows Trump shifting in his seat several times and his eyelids drooping as he listens to cabinet ministers. The incident has sparked concerns over Trump's stamina and alertness, following similar instances in the past. However, the White House has released a medical summary after Trump underwent an MRI on December 1, which showed 'perfect' results. According to his physician, Sean Barbabella, the scans revealed no abnormalities, and all major organs were functioning normally. While the MRI results offer reassurance, health experts caution that they may not capture every dimension of cognitive sharpness or sustained stamina, especially in a high-stress role like the presidency. Dr. Jeffrey A. Linder, chief of general internal medicine at Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine, questioned the necessity of the MRI, saying there is no standard executive physical. The incident has also sparked public perception and scrutiny, with some questioning Trump's capacity to lead, citing the strain of prolonged public appearances and long working hours. Trump supporters argue that the 'dozing' video simply reflects fatigue and not a medical crisis, while others point to the mounting evidence as a sign of declining health.
