President Donald Trump has always strived to project a specific image: the confident, dapper camera-ready business tycoon and TV personality with a sparkling smile, tanned skin, and perfectly coiffed hair.

In a life lived in the public glare for decades, part of this image is endless energy — working all the time, operating on little sleep, and making it all look effortless. In other words, he is a picture of health and vigor, as praised in superlatives by himself and everyone around him.

What is Donald Trump’s blood type?

The US former president has concealed his medical record away from the limelight for security reasons. Hence, his genotype and blood group is not known to the public.

Moreover, detractors claim that Trump has frequently attempted to conceal the truth about his health, particularly throughout his presidential campaign and during his first term, which is an increasingly alarming prospect for a White House mired in suspicion.

Dr. Sean Conley, Trump’s presidential physician, appeared before a national television audience over the weekend and provided scant and, at times, misleading details about his novel coronavirus infection, becoming only the latest participant in Trump’s concerted effort to maintain his image of health.

Conley said Sunday he “was trying to reflect the upbeat attitude” of the president after his equivocating the previous day was met with heavy criticism. “In doing so, you know, it came off that we were trying to hide something, which wasn’t necessarily true.”
