Donald Trump sigue gozando de «excelente» salud pero debe bajar de peso, dice su médico

Donald Trump sigue gozando de una salud «excelente», pero debe bajar de peso y hacer más ejercicio, según el último chequeo médico anual del mandatario estadounidense, realizado pocas semanas antes de que cumpla 80 años.
Trump, el presidente de mayor edad al asumir el cargo, ha alardeado en repetidas ocasiones de su vigor mental y físico en comparación con su predecesor demócrata, Joe Biden, quien dejó la Casa Blanca con 82 años.
«El presidente Trump se mantiene en excelente condición de salud, demostrando una sólida función cardíaca, pulmonar, neurológica y física en general», declaró el médico presidencial, el capitán de la Marina Sean Barbabella, quien lo consideró «plenamente apto para desempeñar todas las funciones de comandante en jefe y jefe de Estado».
El informe de tres páginas publicado el viernes por la noche da cuenta del examen médico y de las pruebas diagnósticas realizadas el martes a Trump en el hospital militar Walter Reed, cerca de Washington.
Según Barbabella, la edad cardíaca de Trump es «de unos 14 años menos que su edad cronológica» de 79, y el presidente obtuvo un «30 sobre 30» en la evaluación cognitiva.
Trump, que cumplirá 80 años el 14 de junio, mide 1,91 metros y pesa 108 kg, frente a los 101,6 kg de su chequeo de salud de abril de 2025.
«Se proporcionaron consejos preventivos, incluida la recomendación de modificar la alimentación, la toma de aspirina en dosis bajas, un aumento de la actividad física y la continuación de la pérdida de peso», indica el texto.
Trump, que cumplirá 80 años el 14 de junio, toma tres medicamentos, dos de ellos destinados a controlar su nivel de colesterol y el tercero, aspirina, para prevenir enfermedades cardiacas.
«President Trump remains in excellent health… Cognitive and physical performance are excellent. He is fully fit to carry out all duties of the Commander-in-Chief and Head of State.»

El informe menciona también «una cicatriz en la oreja derecha correspondiente a una herida de bala anterior», secuela del intento de asesinato de Trump, entonces candidato a la presidencia, durante un mitin electoral en Pensilvania en 2024.
El examen del martes es el tercero desde la investidura de Trump el 20 de enero de 2025, lo que supone un ritmo semestral de revisiones médicas hasta ahora, en lugar de la frecuencia anual habitual.
«Todo salió PERFECTAMENTE bien», escribió Trump tras estos exámenes.
Desde su regreso al poder en enero de 2025, el dirigente estadounidense presenta en la mano derecha un hematoma persistente, cubierto de maquillaje, que el informe hecho público el viernes atribuye «a los frecuentes apretones de manos» que se suman «a la toma de aspirina con fines de prevención cardiovascular».
En algunos actos oficiales, también se ha visto al presidente aparentemente cerrar los ojos durante varios segundos, aunque ha negado en repetidas ocasiones haberse quedado dormido.
La Casa Blanca también reveló que Trump sufre de insuficiencia venosa crónica, una afección extendida y benigna que provoca hinchazón e incluso calambres.
El presidente ha reducido sus desplazamientos dentro de Estados Unidos en comparación con su primer mandato (2017-2021), pero mantiene un ritmo bastante intenso de viajes al extranjero y responde con frecuencia a la prensa.
Durante su primer mandato, fue acusado de falta de transparencia sobre su salud, en particular cuando fue hospitalizado tras contraer covid en octubre de 2020.
El estado de salud del presidente estadounidense no suscita en la opinión pública interrogantes tan insistentes como los que provocaba el de Biden al final de su mandato, cuando el demócrata solía sufrir caídas o confusiones.
Pero muchos estadounidenses albergan dudas sobre las facultades de Trump.
En una reciente encuesta de Washington Post/ABC News/Ipsos, el 59% de los consultados considera que el mandatario republicano no tiene la capacidad mental para dirigir el país y el 55% que no goza de la salud física necesaria.
El presidente estadounidense asegura estar en plena forma. «Me siento como hace cincuenta años. Es una locura», declaró el 12 de mayo.

British PM Keir Starmer could face leadership challenge amid internal troubles
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer faces significant internal pressure following Andy Burnham’s special election win, potentially triggering a leadership contest. Starmer is under fire for economic pressures, illegal immigration issues, and controversies surrounding his previous role in prosecuting grooming gangs. Elon Musk also accused Starmer of complicity.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is reportedly considering stepping down and could announce a timetable for his departure as early as Monday, according to a report published Saturday.
Britain’s Observer newspaper reported that Starmer was discussing his future with his wife at his Chequers country residence before making a final decision.
The outlet reported that senior Labour Party figures expect a statement addressing his future as early as next week.
A government source told Reuters that Starmer remains focused on governing and pointed to previous comments in which he vowed to remain in office.

Fox News Digital has reached out to the prime minister’s office for comment.
Pressure on Starmer has been building for months amid growing dissatisfaction within his party and concerns over the government’s handling of the economy and cost-of-living issues.
The political threat to Starmer intensified Friday after rival Andy Burnham won a seat in Parliament, positioning him to mount a formal leadership challenge.

Starmer congratulated Burnham following the victory, writing on X that voters, «chose Labour’s campaign of hope and optimism over division and hate.»
When asked about Burnham’s apparent ambitions to replace him, Starmer insisted he intends to remain in office.
«I’ve said repeatedly I’m not going to walk away from that,» Starmer said.

Starmer has led the Labour Party since 2020 and became prime minister in 2024.
Calls for his resignation intensified last month, with more than 100 Labour lawmakers publicly urging him to step aside or set out a timetable for his departure. Several parliamentary aides also resigned in protest.
The internal revolt followed a series of disappointing local election results for Labour, which lost hundreds of council seats across England, surrendered long-held ground in Wales and fell behind political rivals in Scotland.

Starmer’s popularity has also declined amid a persistently high cost of living, sluggish economic growth and criticism over his acceptance of gifts from wealthy donors.

Pope Leo sends unmistakable message on immigrants during visit honoring America’s first saint

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Pope Leo XIV used a visit Saturday honoring St. Frances Xavier Cabrini, the first American saint and patron saint of immigrants, to deliver his latest appeal on behalf of them, asking Catholics to look to her example at a time when migration remains one of the defining issues of his emerging papacy.
The remarks came as Leo continues to make migration a central focus of his public ministry, a position that has sparked months of public friction with President Donald Trump over immigration and foreign policy.
«What could be more relevant today than a missionary charism dedicated to serving migrants?» Leo said during an evening prayer service in Sant’Angelo Lodigiano, the northern Italian town where Cabrini was born.
The American-born pope prayed at Cabrini’s tomb and urged young Catholics to learn from the saint’s life of serving immigrants, many of whom had left their homelands in search of better opportunities.

But Leo also invoked his predecessor, Pope Francis, whose own papacy was defined in part by calls to welcome migrants.
«Let us ask ourselves: if Mother Francesca were alive today, what would her missionary spirit tell her?» Leo said. «And what would a pope like Francis — who, as the son of Italian immigrants, made service to migrants one of the key priorities of his pontificate — ask of her?»
The comments are the latest in a series of migration-focused appearances that have helped define Leo’s first year as pope.

Last week, Leo traveled to Spain’s Canary Islands, a major destination for migrants departing West Africa, where he met migrants and called for greater efforts to welcome and integrate people fleeing hardship and conflict.
During that trip, Leo urged world leaders to create «legal and safe pathways» for migration and warned against reducing migrants to statistics.
Leo’s migration advocacy has frequently drawn criticism from Trump, who has accused the pontiff of venturing into politics and sharply disagreed with some of his comments on immigration and foreign affairs.
The public disagreements have become one of the most closely watched relationships between the Vatican and Washington during Leo’s papacy.

Earlier this year, Reuters reported that Secretary of State Marco Rubio was expected to meet with Vatican officials and Italian leaders during a period of heightened tensions between the Holy See and the Trump administration.
Leo has rejected suggestions that his remarks are political attacks, arguing instead that his appeals stem from Catholic teaching on human dignity, peace and care for vulnerable people.
Saturday’s visit centered on Cabrini, who became a naturalized U.S. citizen and spent decades serving Italian immigrants through schools, hospitals and orphanages before her death in Chicago in 1917.

The Vatican has also announced that Leo will travel to the Italian island of Lampedusa on July 4, a date likely to draw attention in the United States given the pope’s American roots.

Lampedusa has become one of Europe’s most recognizable migration flashpoints because of the thousands of migrants who attempt dangerous crossings from North Africa each year. The island also carries symbolic importance within the Catholic Church because it was the destination of Pope Francis’ first trip outside Rome after becoming pope in 2013.
