President Trump shows unexplained bruises on arm during Bedminster golf outing

During a Labor Day weekend round of golf at his Bedminster club, President Trump was seen with noticeable bruises running along his left arm.

President Trump was photographed on the golf course at his Bedminster, New Jersey, club over the Labor Day weekend with conspicuous bruises extending up his left arm. The image was shared on Instagram by former aide John McEntee, who also co-founded the dating app The Right Stuff. The president has a history of visible bruises, which he has explained as side effects of taking "big aspirin" or shaking hands too hard, though speculation persists about hidden intravenous therapy.

Similar arm bruising was observed at the same venue roughly a month earlier. Health disclosures from the White House have been limited, with only brief mentions of recent specialist visits and omitted details about past medication. The outing also included typical presidential routine, such as ensuring Secret Service agents ate club hot dogs and accompanying aide Natalie Harp handling social media duties.

Why it matters

Visible injuries on the president raise questions about his health and transparency to the public.
