On Friday at the White House, Donald Trump participated in a photo opportunity as he signed an executive order proclaiming that the annual Army-Navy football game will be broadcast on the second Saturday of November. He also presented the Commander-in-Chief’s trophy to the U.S. Navy Midshipmen football team of the United States Naval Academy.
But as Trump sat down to sign the executive order, he seemed to have trouble navigating how to lower himself into a chair.
The Mirror described the scene:
“Donald Trump visibly struggled to sit down in a chair during a Friday morning ceremony, sparking fresh health fears days after Americans commented on his increasingly swollen ankles.”
“The president, whose doctor’s daughter made a bombshell claim about his health, appeared to grip the table with both hands and contorted in an awkward-looking position before finally plopping down.”
“His face grimaced as if bending his knees caused discomfort. This comes among increased speculation that the president’s physical health is deteriorating, with Americans putting emphasis on his discolored hands, apparent cognitive decline and bloated ankles. Trump famously avoided war due to his bone spurs, and it comes after Melania’s comments about Barron’s mental state exposed why he can’t be drafted into the army.“

The video set off a wave of commentary regarding Dementia Don’s failing health.
Trump’s 80th birthday is in June. Will he make it that long?
