Take a look at the huge bruise on his right hand. Is this an IV bruise? He has lost weight and can't stand up straight and his face looks drawn.

That 100% is from an IV or a blood draw.

I don’t know, his foot licking seems pretty on point. |
The president seemed pretty healthy swinging that chainsaw around the other day. |
Yeah, looks like an IV. Someone else might be able to comment whether it also looks like someone taking blood thinners.
Trump does not look healthy. I’m startled that I would say this, but seeing a picture of him without all of the orange makeup made me understand why he wears it. He looks ill and often seems exhausted and out of it — in situations where he knows that he’s being photographed. Progressive dementia also is part of the mix. |
Fake news |
What is the difference between a bruise on his hand versus his arm? When I get blood drawn, they use my elbow crease to catch a vein. Why would they use the hand versus the arm? |
IV doesn't mean bad health. He could have had any number of standard procedures that required an IV: endoscopy, colonoscopy (generally passed the age where they do this), MRI with contrast, CT scan with contrast (w/ or w/out CAC), etc. He could also have done some kind of proactive holistic treatment like vitamin c infusion. |
He’s old and has dementia |
Please don't get everyone's hopes up. The guy is healthy for his age and incredibly poor lifestyle choices, and has access to good enough medicine to keep him that way for a long time. |
And we’ll never know why he had an IV because he’ll never allow his medical records to be released. |
We spotted McConnell's purple, puffy hands, and he lasted another several years before having to retire.

When you qualify his health by saying he’s healthy, “for his age and incredibly poor lifestyle choices,” that is not a ringing endorsement of his health. “Not going to die very soon” is certainly not “healthy enough to be fit to serve as president.” The same political party that railed about Biden’s being senile is starting to suggest a third term for Trump. |
The thing about 78-year old men is that they've already passed the average life expectancy. It shouldn't be a shock to anybody when a man that age rapidly deteriorates and dies of natural causes within any given week. It happens every single day. He's got a chance to make it to 82, but he has a much greater chance of not. |
That's not how that works. As you get older, your life expectancy goes up. https://blog.datawrapper.de/the-older-you-get-the-higher-your-life-expectancy/ |
