Bruising Appears On Trump’s Hand Ahead Of Pittsburgh Visit

While President Donald Trump was chatting with the media ahead of his planned visit to Pittsburgh for an economic summit, C-SPAN cameras filmed what looks to be a bruise on the president’s right hand.

The White House has previously attributed bruising on the president’s hand to a variety of circumstances, including vigorous handshakes.

The scene was filmed when the president responded to a question about the continuing situation in Ukraine. At one point, Trump raised his right hand to reveal what looked to be a white, bruise-like mark. The bruise appeared minor, since the president avoided mentioning it and continued with his scheduled engagements as planned.

While the mark sparked speculation on social media, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt and President Trump himself have previously attributed the bruises to vigorous handshakes, golf, and the president’s long workweek.
