Donald Trump has not appeared in any live public events for seven days in Washington, DC, prompting a swirl of online speculation about the President's health as he approaches his 80th birthday on 14 June.
Journalist Aaron Rupar flagged on X that Trump's last public sighting was on 27 May, when he chaired a Cabinet meeting at the White House. Since then, the President has only surfaced in a pre-recorded interview, a notable lull for a politician whose day-to-day routine is usually played out on camera. For those who do not follow his schedule closely, the gap itself has become the story.
