Trump Accidentally Flashes Puffy Hand in Embarrassing Moment

The Daily Beast • • world

Key Points:

  • During a Veterans Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery, President Donald Trump drew attention for his visibly bruised and swollen right hand, which he tried to conceal while laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
  • The White House attributes the bruising to frequent handshaking and Trump’s long-term use of a high-dose aspirin regimen, as well as chronic venous insufficiency, a condition causing poor blood circulation and swelling.
  • Trump appeared energetic during the event, notably praising embattled Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, who recently avoided impeachment.
  • The president has a history of health issues, including past avoidance of military service during the Vietnam War due to deferments and a disputed bone spur diagnosis.
  • Despite previous instances of nodding off at public events, Trump was notably alert and engaged during the Veterans Day service.
