People Are Worried About The President’s Health After Spotting Small Detail In These Photos

President Donald Trump took a major step toward fulfilling a key campaign promise today, signing an executive order aimed at dismantling the Department of Education. The move marks the beginning of a process that could significantly reshape the federal government’s role in education.

Standing before an energized crowd, Trump expressed his enthusiasm for the long-awaited action. But while the moment was historic, many observers couldn’t help but notice a bruise on his hand, sparking renewed speculation about his health.

This isn’t the first time concerns have been raised. A similar bruise was spotted on his hand back in February during a meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron at the White House. At the time, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt dismissed any speculation, attributing it to Trump’s relentless schedule, saying he’s “constantly working and shaking hands all day, every day.”

Despite reassurances, questions about Trump’s health have persisted. Just last week, the 78-year-old appeared to be limping when he took the stage at an event alongside his daughter-in-law, Lara Trump. Since taking office, he has faced speculation over various health concerns, with critics pointing to occasional difficulties in articulation or reading from prepared remarks.

Today, some onlookers pointed out an apparent irony—Trump was seen briefly struggling to read a passage while announcing an order to phase out the Department of Education. His critics seized on the moment, but his supporters remained focused on the substance of the policy shift.

“Seventy percent of fourth graders are not proficient in reading or math,” Trump declared, underscoring his rationale for restructuring the education system.

The executive order alone won’t immediately shut down the department—that would require congressional approval—but it sets in motion a significant reduction of its authority and influence. Many conservatives have long criticized the Department of Education, arguing that education should be handled at the state and local level, not dictated by Washington bureaucrats.

Trump also took a moment to compare the performance of U.S. students to those in other nations, specifically pointing to China as an example of how a large country can still maintain high educational standards. He dismissed the notion that America’s size was an excuse for falling behind.

By signing this executive order, Trump has begun what could be one of the most consequential policy battles of his administration. Whether Congress follows his lead remains to be seen, but one thing is clear—he’s determined to see this fight through.
