Trump Wants It Back—But Should We? Revisiting the Presidential Fitness Test

Trump Wants It Back—But Should We? Revisiting the Presidential Fitness Test

Today’s poll question dives into a surprisingly nostalgic and controversial topic: Should we reinstate the Presidential Fitness Test in U.S. schools? Michael takes a trip down memory lane—from pizza days and posture checks at Doyle Elementary to the shower policies of junior high PE classes—and unpacks how the fitness test became a cultural milestone. With Trump advocating for its return ahead of America’s semi quincentennial, and critics arguing it promotes outdated standards, Michael explores both sides of the debate.
