President Trump brags about his 'gorgeous chest' while debunking claims that he was having heart problems
President Donald Trump refuted ongoing speculation that he had suffered a heart attack earlier this month by highlighting his "gorgeous" chest. The commander-in-chief was addressing a packed arena in Florida on Tuesday, November 26, when he insisted he was in the pink of health.
Trump even clarified that his unannounced visit to the American Army's flagship medical center on November 17 was simply for a routine medical check, according to an Evening Standard report.
Furthermore, he stressed that if he "didn't feel great", he "wouldn't be ranting and raving" to large crowds, like the one that gathered at the Sunrise arena on Tuesday.
Several outlets pushed a conspiracy theory that the president was possibly being treated at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for a cardiac arrest.
However, Trump debunked those claims outright, saying he hadn't worn a tie for the tests simply because he knew he would have to take off his shirt. "Why would I wear a tie if the first thing they do is say 'Take off your shirt, sir, and show us that gorgeous chest?", he quipped.
"We've never seen a chest quite like it," he added, mimicking the doctors as his audience roared with laughter. Trump also made a separate physical observation for the governor of Florida, advising him to wear a jacket-less frequently "so people know he's not fat".
This was Trump's first rally in Florida since he officially changed his permanent residency from Trump Tower in New York to his private Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach.
Now officially a Florida man, Trump used his "homecoming rally" to blast the Democrats' ongoing impeachment inquiry against him. In his rant, he accused them of "trying to rip our nation apart" with its investigations.
"First it was the Russia hoax, and now the same maniacs are pushing the deranged impeachment narrative,” he asserted. The president once again reaffirmed that he had done nothing wrong in his dealings with Ukraine.
Instead, he argued that the Democrats were staging "sham" impeachment hearings because they knew "they cannot win the next election".
