Trump dispels health rumors, hits golf course [View all]

Source: The Hill

President Trump on Saturday spent time on the golf course, dispelling rumors that health issues were keeping the president out of the public eye.

He was spotted at Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Va., after his schedule was void of public events for several days in a row. The empty agenda set off a flurry of social media posts raising questions about the president’s health after a photograph of bruising on his hand during a White House Cabinet meeting went viral.

Veteran journalist Laura Rozen in a thread on social platform X has kept tabs on the president in recent days, fostering responses from the public about why Trump was steering clear of the media. On Saturday, she reposted photos of the president at his Virginia golf course.

Vice President Vance earlier this week also brought Trump’s health back into the spotlight in an interview with USA Today on Wednesday. Vance said he was prepared to step in should something happen to the president though he noted that the commander in chief is “incredibly good health.”
