White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Thursday that the president wears bandages on the back of his hand because he’s “literally constantly shaking hands.”
CNN host Jake Tapper isn’t buying the official White House explanation for Donald Trump sporting bandages on the back of his hand, arguing on “The Lead” that there’s more to the president’s health picture than has been revealed.
Tapper discussed the matter with CNN chief political analyst David Axelrod and ex-Trump aide Alyssa Farah Griffin after White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters Thursday that Trump wears the bandages as a result of “constantly shaking hands.”
“The White House gave the same explanation for bruising back in July,” Tapper said Thursday. “Obviously, he’s 79 years old. And there is something going on with his health that they’re not telling us, because otherwise, why did he have that MRI?”
I wonder if this could be related to the gloved hand and floppy coin flip?
It really doesn’t matter until he actually collapses to the floor. Even then they’ll try to spin it into something positive “Mr. president was exhausted for working the hardest anyone has ever worked.”
It tells you a lot about the state of corporate media in US when a journalist stating an obvious fact is considered news.
Trump died at 11:58 pst
🤞
Wow solve any other capers by yourself there Nancy drew?
Good. It’ll make it a surprise party.
I do hope it’s serious
I’m so tired of this fucking story. This evil p.o.s is never going to die. We’ve been hearing Trump health/mind failing stories for like 10 fucking years already…
Wake me up when he’s actually dead. Unfortunately he’s probably going to outlive me and I’m only 39.
Exactly.
Unless his death is imminent, I dont care.
His age makes people complacent because they assume he’s gonna die soon. Even if he does, I’m not sure it’ll improve anything
It certainly feels that way.

As if that were even a slightly reasonable explanation.
I have bandages on my finger tips because I type on a keyboard all day. Without these bandages, by fingers would fall off!
Lol
If he’s getting bruised from constantly shaking hands, is that enough of a fucking problem too?!
I think easy bruising is a ton of conditions.
Why say something now, Jake? Why not wait until after his presidency? Then write a book about it? Then sell that book while you’re doing your job on TV? Just a thought.
I’m $ure he ha$ hi$ rea$ons.
literally constantly shaking hands
It’s called dying.
Not fast enough…
We all are
Bruised hand you say? JD is slacking on his primary duty
Gawd, this douche, who clutched his pearls over…Biden.
