First it was the swollen ankles. Then it was the bruises on the back of his hands and the alarming droopy face. Though his staff continues to assure us that Donald Trump is at the peak of health, his behavior is sometimes worrisome.
The man is nearly 80, after all. Most men his age would be relaxing on the golf course, not sitting in the Oval Office. Despite insisting he’s “aced” several cognitive tests and had a “beautiful” MRI, some people wonder why he needed those tests in the first place. Are his doctors concerned about something?
Donald Trump smacked his leg three times going down the stairs of Air Force One
As further evidence that his health may be declining, the president seemed to exhibit some odd behavior as he departed Air Force One on December 20. After landing in Florida, he looked more cautious than usual as he descended the stairs from the plane.
After exiting the plane, POTUS strangely tapped his right leg three times. He then seemed to cling to the handrail, as he slowly descended the stairs. This isn’t the first time he seemed cautious descending the stairs, as he narrowly escaped a fall back in October.
Commenters on X (formerly Twitter) were quick to notice his hesitancy. As one social medial user quipped, “I wish he concentrated on the economy like he concentrated on going down those stairs.”
Others thought he appeared frail, another person even writing, “That’s a stroke patient.”
“It is not his leg he is touching, but he is trying to get life back into his hand,” another suggested. “I have seen this before on old people … Either he has had a stroke at one point or he has nerve damage in [his] hand.”
Another opined that the president’s behavior was “perfectly fine,” and perhaps his leg had just fallen asleep on the flight.
In the past few months, Trump has often seemed to doze off during cabinet meetings. Equally concerning are his sometimes inappropriate and rambling tangents. He recently offered a crowd in North Carolina a little TMI on his wife Melania Trump’s undergarments.
