According to a report from Business Insider, Trump had lost about 15 pounds as of this April. Likewise, his advisers are quoted as saying the ex-president has seen marked improvements to his health, is eating healthier, and often plays golf.

According to the Washington Post, leaders who have visited Trump at Mar-a-Lago this year have said the 75-year-old was more relaxed than during his four years in the White House.

The change has prompted the media to question whether the former leader is preparing for a reelection bid in 2024.
