While Trump may not be acutely unwell, the White House did previously admit he had been diagnosed with  chronic venus insifinssy , a long term condition common in older adults when the valves in your leg veins don’t work effectively, making it difficult for blood to return to the heart.

The bruises he was spotted on the back of his hands  often covered with makeup, were also addressed by his physician Dr.Sean Barbabella, who attributed them to ‘minor soft tissue irritation from frequent handshaking and the use of aspirin.’

Trump later revealed himself that he actually takes far more aspirin than his doctors would typically recommend, which could be contributing to the easy bruising which is a known side effect of the drug.

“They say aspirin is good for thinning out the blood, and I don’t want thick blood pouring through my heart,” he said. “I want nice, thin blood pouring through my heart. Does that make sense?”
