Donald Trump: 'I feel as good today as I did when I was 30'


During his interview with Dr. Mehmet Oz on Wednesday, Donald Trump said he's not worried about his age slowing him down.
Trump is 70, and if elected will be the oldest person to enter the Oval Office. When Oz asked him about his stamina, Trump said, "I would say based on my life, I don't know if this makes sense, but I feel as good today as I did when I was 30."
Earlier, The Dr. Oz Show released a statement saying the host went over with Trump "a full review of systems," including the head and neck, hormone levels, respiratory health, and "family medical history." The episode will air on Thursday.
