Trump maintains that he is fully fine and perfectly healthy. After the concealer and the red gnash moments, the bulge has taken over the internet. "Trump, sitting during his 60 Minutes interview, shows not only how morbidly obese he has become, but that he wears a very thick adult diaper," a post read, alongside a photo from the interview he gave after the shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner.

Others slammed users for shaming Trump for his age and weight. One of them suggested, "Probably some sort of equipment he is wearing for a microphone since this is an interview. Duh!" Another wrote, "We mustn't exaggerate; no one knows if it's true. Being 79 years old doesn't necessarily mean you need diapers."

Bruising on his hands has often been highlighted, as they have been seen time and again. He reportedly used a concealer to hide the redness. Later, the skin bruising was attributed to "frequent handshaking" and the daily 325mg aspirin regimen for cardiovascular prevention. A red rash was also seen on his neck, and he received treatment for it in 2026.
