The first president of the USA was 57 years old when he assumed office (George Washington). Nowadays, the US electorate expects the new president to be more young at heart. President Donald Trump was 70 years old when he was inaugurated. In contrast to his predecessors, he is physically fit, healthy and active. And his fitness has been a prominent theme of his presidency. During the presidential campaign, he famously said he would be the “most active president ever” — a statement Trump has not yet achieved, but one that fits his approach to the office. His tweets demonstrate his physical activity.
