Why Donald Trump's Daily Aspirin Habit Is Raising Eyebrows

Share Post

President Donald Trump is raising eyebrows after reiterating his love for — and apparent need of — aspirin.

“I love Bayer Aspirin. I take an aspirin a day,” Trump, 80, said while speaking to a crowd of supporters at a midterm campaign rally in Vandalia, Ohio, on Saturday, October 3. “I don’t know if it works, but psychologically I need it. It thins the hell out of your blood I guess. I don’t know if it works or not but I’ve been doing it for a long time — and here I am, making speeches.”

The commander-in-chief continued, “Bayer. And I like Bayer aspirin … I take the big one. You know they want me to go down to the 80… I take the 386… I don’t know what the hell it is. It’s a monster. They said, ‘Sir, you don’t need that.’ I said, ‘Do me a favor — I’ve been doing okay for 35 years. Leave me alone.’”
