It probably hasn’t escaped your attention that something is up with the president’s hands. Donald Trump‘s hands have long been a subject of fascination for the nation, but especially so over the last six months as strange swellings and discoloration became visible in press photos, with thick makeup pasted over the backs of his hands.
The White House was forced to make an official statement, dismissing the marks as simply the effect of Trump shaking too many hands each day. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt explained to the press that the marks are due to Trump’s just working so darn hard, arguing that he “meets more Americans and shakes their hands on a daily basis than any other president in history.”
