As former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris both hold rallies in the battleground state of Michigan on Friday questions are being raised about the former presidents health with on weeks left until Election Day.
Trump at a roundtable with voters in Oakland County dismissed questions about whether he would release his most recent medical records, as Harris continues to question Trumps fitness for the presidency.
When the 78-year-old Trump was asked if would release his health records to the public ahead of the election he said he has already shared enough information about his medical history.

Yeah, my health records Ive done five exams over the last four years. Youve got them all, Trump told a reporter on an airport tarmac after landing in Detroit, Michigan, on Friday afternoon.
Trump also claimed that his “aced” multiple cognitive tests already and that he is too busy campaigning against the vice president to devote any time to updating his health records.
Obviously, Im in the middle of a very big and very contentious fight, he said. Were leading. Ive given my health exams,” Trump said on Friday.
Harris, who turns 60 on Sunday, in contrast to Trump has released detailed health report from her White House doctor on Oct. 12. She has in recent days repeatedly called into question the former presidents physical fitness for office and highlighting the fact that he, if elected on Nov. 5, would be the oldest person U.S history ever elected to the presidency.
During a rally in North Carolina on Sunday Harris called out Trump for not agreeing to release a comprehensive health report and his refusal to participate in a second debate.
It makes you wonder, why does his staff want him to hide away? One must question, one must question, are they afraid that people will see that he is too weak and unstable to lead America? Is that whats going on? Harris said.
During an appearance in Michigan on Friday Harris highlighted a Politico report that said a Trump advisor had told a podcast host that the former president backed out of an interview because he was “exhausted.”
If he cant handle the rigors of the campaign trail, is he fit to do the job? I think its a legitimate question, Harris said at an event in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
She also pointed to a bizarre event that took place on Monday night during a Trump town hall in Philadelphia, which saw the former president sway on stage for 30 minutes while music played and offering few remarks.
