Trump Accuses NYT Of Lying
President Trump is pushing back hard after The New York Times published yet another report questioning his energy, stamina, and daily work schedule. The Times claimed the president is appearing less in public, but Trump made it clear Tuesday that the media’s narrative is flat-out wrong — and part of a familiar pattern of political hit pieces.
Trump: “I’ll Tell You When Something’s Wrong — And There’s Nothing Wrong.”
During an extended opening statement at a Cabinet meeting, Trump rejected the idea that he’s losing steam in his second term.
“I skipped one press conference, and suddenly they’re claiming something is wrong with me,” Trump said. “It’s ridiculous. If something were ever wrong, I’d be the first to say so. As of now, I feel sharper than I did a quarter-century ago.”
For older conservative voters who remember how aggressively the media shielded Biden, Trump’s confidence stands in stark contrast.
Trump Highlights Perfect Cognitive Test Score
The president reminded reporters that he not only completed a full physical at Walter Reed in October but also aced a cognitive exam.
“I got every single question right,” Trump said. “Then I read in The New York Times, ‘Is Trump sharp?’ They’re not sharp. They’re going out of business. Losing money like crazy. Total fakers.”
The White House previously confirmed that Trump also received an MRI as part of routine preventive care — a detail the media quickly brushed aside.
New York Times Story Called Out for Misleading Narrative
The Times article — titled “Shorter Days, Signs of Fatigue: Trump Faces Realities of Aging in Office” — insinuated Trump is slowing down. But White House officials countered immediately by pointing to Oval Office logs showing the president consistently putting in 12-hour workdays.
Trump has faced this pattern before: the legacy media publishes anonymous “concerns,” Trump refutes them with facts, and the story collapses under its own weight.
Media Double Standard: Biden Was ‘Fine,’ But Trump Is Questioned
Throughout his career, Trump has openly called out media bias — especially when it comes to presidential health. While the press ignored Joe Biden’s visible decline, they now nitpick Trump’s daily schedule despite his active workload.
At 79, Trump is the oldest president ever sworn in, but his energy-filled rallies, long workdays, and sharp responses continue to reassure conservatives that he’s fully in command.
Past Health Stories Resurface — And Trump Pushes Back Again
The media has repeatedly tried to sensationalize Trump’s health, from the 2024 assassination attempt to his 2020 COVID diagnosis. Reporters continue recycling old talking points, often leaving out key facts or context.
Trump, however, has stayed focused, insisting he remains strong, capable, and more determined than ever.
