The mysterious bruise popping up on Donald Trump’s right hand has again reappeared, raising more questions about its actual cause.
While the President’s physical health assessment results are out and seem to be clear, one question is on everyone’s minds. What is the reason behind this bruise that’s even bigger than before?
The sprawling bruise was seen as Trump presented the Commander-in-Chief trophy to the Navy Midshipmen football team on Tuesday.
The trophy was given to the winner of the US college football team from the Army, Navy, and Air Force academies.
Trump addressed the winners, and when he held a football, his right hand had a bruise that he seemed to try and cover up with some skin-toned makeup.
The bruise was first seen when Trump left the campaign trail in October and has popped up in pictures several times this year.
A White House official tried to brush off the news and claim that this was just due to the President shaking hundreds of hands of people on the campaign trail and with his current duties.
The official alleged that such repeated interactions can take a toll. But another doctor says that this could be due to minor trauma, like injuries or bumping into something often, or even from drawing blood or taking on an IV drip.
