Donald Trump has made a bizarre confession about his own health at an event at the White House.

The US president was addressing a group of firefighters when he went on a tangent about personal vices.

“If you don’t drink or you don’t take drugs or if you don’t smoke, there’s no problem,” Trump said.

“I have other problems, I have some very severe problems. But those are not one of them.”

“I don’t want to add them to the list, 'cos if I did I guarantee I wouldn’t be here right now.”

    I got that too. He’s speaking about vices and sex is considered a vice. Are we about to get new Epstein files?

      At any time any POTUS can say they have problems and it could be explained many ways. We have a million known crimes this guy has committed, so speculation and reaching is unnecessary and just gives stupid people an argument that nobody has time to dispute.

      I’m on the spectrum and not an intuitive communicator, but even in context I do not see a safe way to conclude he’s talking about drugs, sex, health, or anything specific that couldn’t be explained with the typical hardships of being POTUS.
