Donald Trump's swollen ankles triggered a fresh wave of health scrutiny on Tuesday, 16 June, after cameras captured the 80-year-old US president's visibly bulging 'cankles' during a G7 summit meeting in Évian-les-Bains, France, with Qatar's Emir, Sheik Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani.
Trump's physical and cognitive fitness, as images of his mottled hands, apparent daytime drowsiness and increasingly laboured speech have fuelled speculation that his problems extend beyond normal ageing. The White House insists he remains 'in excellent health' and fully able to serve, but a growing number of medical voices are no longer taking those assurances at face value.
