Mary Trump Says Donald Trump, 79, Is in Health Spiral as White House Pushes Back

Summary
Mary Trump wrote in her weekly newsletter that President Donald Trump’s health is “decaying” and that he is in a psychological and physical “downward spiral.”
She tied that claim to his recent erratic behavior, late-night posting sprees and what she described as a flailing Iran peace effort, arguing humiliation and “narcissistic injuries” are driving his decline.
Steven Cheung, a White House spokesperson, rejected her account and said Trump’s niece “doesn’t have a clue about anything.”
The dispute comes despite recurring scrutiny over Trump’s swollen ankles, bruised hands, neck rash and verbal gaffes, though a late-May Walter Reed visit found him fully fit after scans, screenings and a reported 30-out-of-30 cognitive test.
