President Donald Trump celebrated his one-year anniversary back at the White House this week. Despite his confidence, concerns about his health persist, especially after new photos showing a large bruise on his left hand surfaced during a ceremony for his ‘Board of Peace’. The bruise was explained as an injury from knocking his hand on a table.
Reports suggest that Trump’s susceptibility to bruising may be due to daily aspirin use and aging, which causes thinner skin and increased fragility of blood vessels. Concerns about his mental acuity were also raised after he repeatedly confused Greenland with Iceland during a speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.
Psychologist Dr. John Gartner noted signs of dementia in Trump’s speeches, pointing out a significant decline in his verbal articulation compared to the past. Trump’s health has been a topic of debate, with observations of bruises and swollen ankles raising further questions.
Speculation about Trump’s health intensified towards the end of 2025, with reports suggesting a reduction in his workload and changes in his schedule. Concerns about his physical and mental health persist, with instances of dozing off during public appearances and controversial statements adding to the scrutiny. Despite the White House’s efforts to dismiss rumors, doubts about Trump’s overall health remain.
