But he promised Thursday that he would release them within two weeks. He tweeted this Thursday morning, after [a Politico story](http://www.politico.com/story/2015/12/trump-withholds-medical-records-216376 "undefined") noted he had so far declined to make any records public. > [](https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/672401996826206208) Politico previously reported that the campaign hadn’t responded to multiple requests for comment about his health records dating back to October. Shortly after the report, Trump touted his good health. > [](https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/672389616998227968) Other candidates, including Hillary Clinton, Jeb Bush and Chris Christie have released their records. Trump has talked numerous times on the campaign trail about his unhealthy diet and lack of exercise. “I love steak and hamburger and pasta and French fries, all of the things that we shouldn’t be eating,” he said in a November interview. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4134442/donald-trump-medical-records/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4134442/donald-trump-medical-records/"},"headline":"Donald Trump Promises to Release Medical Records Within 2 Weeks","datePublished":"2015-12-03T12:54:31.000Z","dateModified":"2023-12-13T22:40:55.000Z","description":"Donald Trump, who would be the oldest person ever to be president, has yet to release his medical records, despite claims that he's healthy.","url":"https://time.com/4134442/donald-trump-medical-records/","keywords":["Donald Trump","republicans","2016 Election topic","2016 Republicans"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt7325324ea66763d8/69887364428a9e688ecd05d4/donald-trump2.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Tessa Berenson","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/tessa-berenson/"}],"articleSection":"Politics","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt7325324ea66763d8/69887364428a9e688ecd05d4/donald-trump2.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Republican U.S. presidential candidate Trump addresses a Trump for President campaign rally in Macon","caption":"Republican U.S. presidential candidate Trump addresses a Trump for President campaign rally in Macon","creditText":"Christopher Aluka Berry—Reuters","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/politics/","name":"Politics"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/donald-trump/","name":"Donald Trump"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4134442/donald-trump-medical-records/","name":"Donald Trump Promises to Release Medical Records Within 2 Weeks"}}]}] ```
