He’s also a lot healthier than most people his age.

He didn’t drink or so drugs. No known hospitalizations.

Fuck he’s healthier than most of us.

I don't know about healthier, but he obviously has strong genetics. But he is certainly overweight/obese, and very likely has high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and possibly even prediabetes. He would do well to start eating healthier and exercising.

I'll give you that he's overweight but he is not obese. Highly doubt he has diabetes, otherwise he wouldn't be able to talk for such long periods of time.

He'll be fine.

Unfortunately, our country has very poor health standards and many Americans are in fact obese, and it's not as uncommon as you may think because our off-the-cuff standards are so skewed. We tend to think people that are obese are just overweight, and people that are trim and healthy are too skinny. However, there is a difference between obesity and morbid obesity. Trump is not the latter, but very likely may be the former. Lastly, prediabetes isn't full-blown diabetes. But at his age, with the foods that he is known to eat, it would be almost impossible for anyone to not have some amount of blood sugar dysregulation.
