Donald Trump confessed to using makeup to conceal bruises on his hands during an eye-opening interview addressing concerns about his health. Trump revealed that he applies makeup after sustaining blows, stating that it is a quick and easy process taking only about 10 seconds.
This revelation followed a recent incident where the 79-year-old was seen with what seemed to be makeup or paint covering a bruise on his hand before meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida.
During the interview, Trump mentioned a handshake mishap with United States Attorney General Pam Bondi, where he cut his hand on her large diamond wedding ring, causing a minor cut. He explained that he uses makeup in case of any future injuries.
Despite showing visible signs of aging, Trump has disregarded traditional medical advice, attributing his health to his “good genetics.” His bruising is reportedly linked to his long-term use of extra-strength aspirin, a practice he continues despite doctors’ warnings due to superstition and habit.
Trump’s physician, Navy Captain Sean Barbabella, revealed that the president takes aspirin for cardiac prevention, consuming a higher dose than typically recommended. Trump defended his choice, emphasizing the benefits of thinning his blood for heart health.
In a candid admission, the President confessed to finding exercise uninteresting, stating that activities like walking or running on a treadmill for extended periods do not appeal to him.
