Donald Trump health fears erupt again over strange spot on hand
Donald Trump was seen with a noticeable layer of makeup on his right hand on Friday as he left the White House, amid ongoing speculation about his health. The 79-year-old is believed to have used makeup to hide bruising on his hand on several occasions since returning to office, but the application appeared particularly thick during his visit to The People's House museum.

Fears is a funny way to describe it.
i fear it isn't serious
I do kinda fear JD Vance being president. It's mostly a "devil you know" kinda fear. There's the off chance that he's just the same same as Trump, but younger and, in the worst case scenario, more competent.
Yeah pretty much my take.
Trump has 3 relevant characteristics, he has evil intentions, he's incompetent, he's popular.
Vance has evil intentions, he's less incompetent, but he's less popular.
I really feel this is why they've been pushing EOs and other methods to increase the power the executive has. Even if Vance comes into power and has the charisma of a used napkin, he can just silence dissent anyway.
The shit they’ve been setting up since regaining power will make popularly irrelevant.
The ICE budget scares me more than Trump or Vance.
The issue is that it isn’t that Donald has a magic sway over his followers. It’s that he gives them permission to be their worst selves.
He hinted, twice, to crowds that they should get the Covid vaccine. And was booed. Twice.
He’s riding the tiger and does an impressive job at it.
When he leaves, he will leave a vacuum. And that vacuum will be filled, unfortunately.
I very much hope you're right that Vance fails utterly to pick up Donald's supporters.
There will be tons of maga people who absolutely hate each other mutually backstabbing, and it just might be extremely tricky for any one of them to gain ground, even with Vance technically being the one moving up.
Even trump barely keeps them from one another's throats.
Hard to say ultimately, though no reason to outright assume it'll get worse if trump's health goes south, it seems to me.
Vance is pretty unpopular even with the Nazi base. Without the Führer, the whole movement will fizzle out.
Cults of personality tend not to last once the personality dies.
Franco, Stalin, and Tito all did. Though I feel a bit unfair putting Tito in that list.
Probably not so much fizzle out as implode spectacularly through infighting about who is going to be their next führer. Vance was handpicked by Trump and has the respect of nobody. Everybody in the RNC will try to become the new king.
He was handpicked by Peter Thiel. But you're right that he has as much of a chance to be the next Führer as Rudolf Heß had.
More competent should be better. It takes a special kind of stupid to betray your country as much as he has.
He might have a better position on the boat but we're roughly all in the same boat. If he causes a greater depression, that certainly won't be good for him. It'll be a lot worse for us of course, but that doesn't matter here.
The problem is Vance is the main one pushing the christo-fascist stuff. Trump is a greedy stupid narcissist which can (and has) caused plenty of short term damage. Enough short term damage can stack up to long term damage, but even that is recoverable. Over a long enough time scale foreign relations can be patched, soft power slowly restored. Nothing he has done domestically has been too catastrophic yet. Vance though has the potential intelligence to do some seriously long term lasting damage, the kind of stuff that would E.G. enshrine his particular flavor of Christianity as the national religion and make anyone who isn't male and white a second class citizen. Once society gets tilted in that direction restoring it becomes incredibly hard. Like overthrow the government hard.
Trump in contrast is basically a toddler throwing a temper tantrum. Sure he might break stuff, but broken things are easier to repair than things that have been maliciously constructed. The fascist systems Vance might build are far scarier than whatever Trump comes up with because what Trump makes never lasts. Just wait a little while and it will naturally collapse from greed, incompetence, and infighting. Vance I fear could make something stable though.
The silver lining in this I suppose is that Vance lacks the conman skills that have allowed Trump to weaponize morons and force others to go along with his delusions. Without the throngs of MAGAts supporting him Vance won't be able to strongarm the rest of the GOP the way Trump has which would hamper his efforts.
Peter Theil
Christo-fascism will coalesce an opposition a lot more quickly than incompetence, corruption and narcissism. Nearly everyone hates those sanctimonious fuckers.
Don't let your fears get in the way of your dreams. They are like moles. Only real way to get rid of them is systematically, one by one.
For most people, its a fear of false hope
Hopes, health hopes. I hope his health continues this trend.
Do people outside the UK know just how bad The Express is? It's a bottom-tier reactionary tabloid. Don't give them clicks.
Never heard of it, but thanks for the heads up
The Express is what the Daily Mail secretly wants to be, were it not hindered by its own middle-class aspirations.
This story was needed as a filler because it's too early for the annual "worst winter in twenty billion years" headline.
Yeh, we're still in prime Princess Diana season
Well, it's the Express, so... It panders to the deluded folk amongst the population of the UK that wish they could get a dose of Trumpist Populism™.
There's the Reform Party for such imbeciles. Imagine Trump as a chainsmoking saloon-bar drunk. That's Farage.
Same policies though, freshly translated from Russian.
I wouldn't say 'fears' exactly
If Vance gets to be President, it'll be two weeks before an intern finds him sobbing in the closet.
Fascism doesn't survive its leader. The underlings fight for the power vacuum, and none of them end up winning.
Some people have accused me of being optimistic for saying this, but think about who does win in this situation. It would likely be a form of liberalism that's closer to western Europe in the social safety net aspect, but capitalism would be maintained. I can't deny that it's better than what we've had, but it's not the victory I would have hoped for given the amount of suffering to get there.
Fucking the couch in the oval office.
Who can really follow the man in the wide castle?
Vance doesn't have the charisma to hold the movement together. None of these creeps do; that's why they need Trump.
It certainly won't go away immediately after he dies, but it will all collapse under its own weight.
They mean "fears that again it's false alarm"
There's such a simple, logical, reasonable explanation for a bruise like this: he had blood drawn recently and the phlebotomist had to draw from a vein on top of the hand. If TFG had any sense of humor he could joke about it. If he had any sense of relatability he would know that this happens all the time. But instead...he'd rather do this. Because he's fuckin weird.
What if he thinks that if people think he is about to die there will be fewer attempts?
“Fears”????? What an odd way to spell “Hopes”. Also, Release the Epstein files.
Completely unrelated, but what are your favorite jumping spiders?
Portia are up there. And there are a couple large Phiddipus species with red butts that my grad school Buds used to keep as pets. They were Mutellid mimics and were very entertaining critters
Ha yeah Portia are awesome! And as far as the Phids do you mean P. johnsoni? I love them too! I currently have a mated pair in my spood collection, hoping for an eggsac..
that wound is the epstein telling hand, hes trying to shut it up.
That’s one of them. But my colleagues favorite pet was a species that had an opisthosoma with a big red dorsal spot that covered most of the top. They were mutellid mimics and quite impressive and amusing spiders. If you didn’t know their true identity they looked pretty formidable.
I am embroidering a banner that says “Hooray! Trump is fucking dead!!!!!” I have several days of work to go, so please hold on until Tuesday, Donnie.
No. NOPE, Nononono. Don't listen to this guy. Right fucking now is the best time to die of natural causes, painfully.
Let's fucking goooOOOOOOOO!
;)
Please, no! Right now it just says “Hooray, Trump is fucking …”
... children!
Edit
hoorayTuesday does not work for me, can we do overnight express?
That's looks more like a skin graft than makeup. You would think they could get close to matching the color of the rest of his hand but this administration can't even do that right.
It looks to me like he has a lot of blood pooling in his hands here, so it’s possible that in the morning, at rest with his arm on a table this did reasonably match his skin.
I say this as someone with a condition that causes blood to pool in my hands, so I know how extreme the color swings can be!
The time I had a skin graft, they took a portion of donor skin from my upper thigh. So, same skin, but different levels of sun exposure.
For a long time I had this weird rectangle on my leg that looked like a movie theater screen.
Perhaps some aide's concealer she had on her in the moment.
To be fair, no makeup department stocks his unique shade of orange. You gotta go to Lowe's and get a custom mix for that.
I'm sure kids' Halloween makeup kits include such a color.
It kind of looks like a wound seal. But if he had a wound that big they would graft it.
It's Bondo.
Should be renamed Terminal Weak Artery Trouble in honour of him
I don't fear poor health of POTUS.
But who will take care of us when papa leaves?
Whoever survives the systemic governmental collapse caused by his death.
lol fears. Hopes more like
Don't do that. Don't give me hope
Please die you miserable orange baby raping loser
He's lived a long time for somebody without a heart.
What does he have instead, some kind of grease trap?
That's because he's the EpsTin List Man.
Health fears?
Who fears for his health?
The fears are that he remains healthy enough to continue to do more damage.
The only way health fears and Taco should be in the same sentence is the fear related to health when it comes to conservative policies like: cutting Medicaid, cutting medical research, increased pollution, etc...I don't have any fear at all when it comes to Taco's personal health issues.
He didn't cut the White House / Presidential medical insurance though.

All the McDoubles are leaking grease.
HOPE isn't spelled F-E-A-R, you silly goose.
Release the Trumpstein files.
Lmao "fears" isn't quite the right word for this one.
Yeah, I'd use "teases." As a non-American, this has been like the greatest teaser since 2016 ish. Maybe Americans have been hating him before then.
“Everybody dies”
The demise of this monster can’t come soon enough.
Oh man, it would be a dream to be able to run an entire campaign on just photoshopped images of "POTUS Vance"'s stupid mug.
Hopes and dreams. Now release the epstein files.
What’s left of his brain is desperate for a Nobel peace prize, calling fox and friends to tell them he’s worried he won’t get to heaven. I would guess he feels he’s getting near the end
^🤞
Fears?
Yes, I fear that at this pace it'll take a while. :(
Fear? Not from me. I hope whatever it is kills him. I also hope it hurts the whole time he is dying. If he had his skin sliced and peeled off in strips until he bled to death it would be too good for him.
There's not a god, because he's lived this long. But I pray to god he dies soon, ideally while I'm typing this.
If only prayer worked.
This dumbass has never heard of gloves, I guess. It's a nice thing to see his body is matching his cognitive decline, though!
By the way, he should release the Epstein Files.
Please let him keel over. Please.
Expire already, god damn.
I can't believe Vance looks like an improvement. The bar is so low now we'll have to start drilling to find it.
lol @ “fears”
"fears" lol
Trumpie ain't going to die for another 20 years. Why? The universe fucking hates us.
Look at the other gaint pieces of shit, they all lived into their mid 80s or longer.
Jimmy Saville - Died: October 29, 2011 (age 84 years)
Henry Kissinger - Died: November 29, 2023 (age 100 years)
James C. Dobson - Died: August 21, 2025 (age 89 years)
Fears?
Die fucker die
Thanks Putin?
🍿
Is it wrong to pray for, say, untreatable cancer?
Oh wow, he's got a new emotional support hat
noooo trump pls dont die :(
how will u be punished for raping children? :((((
On one hand, it would be nice if he died a horrible and painful death. On the other, I would prefer him to do so after failing to win an 2nd American Civil War. if there is an inevitable fight, I want the enemy leadership to be the dumbest and most clumsy jackasses possible. That would save lives for the good guys, and make Reconstruction easier to complete.
They actually stopped trying to kill Hitler for this reason later in the war
I cannot say I agree with this at all.
His evil comes at a price after all
His debts are due, to the locker he goes.
Who has the monkey's paw?
It looks more like a pig's hoof, to me.
One that was long ago pickled, then left to rot.
The dude is 80, of course he's got health issues. It'd be weird if he didn't
Term limits and age limits
“Fears”??? What a strange way to spell “Hopes”
It's a shame it's not likely to be gangrene.
Wake me up only if he dies. Otherwise I don't care.
