Two analysts say Donald Trump's gestures on stage at a rally in Mobile, Alabama, on 2 October raise questions about his health. Body language expert Inbaal Honigman said Trump appeared to use one hand on the podium for stability. Psychologist John Paul Garrison said he saw what he described as an arm spasm. Neither has examined Trump, who turned 80 in June and is the oldest US president ever sworn in. His doctor reported normal neurological findings from a May examination. That check came four months before the rally. Both analysts worked from video of the speech in Mobile.
