Donald Trump's health has been the subject of conspiracy theories over the past few weeks amid the 79-year-old's absence from the public eye. It all started after bruises on his hands were photographed, which was followed by the White House announcement that the POTUS had been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency (CVI). Since then, the internet hasn't stopped speculating.
Adding to it, internet sleuths have recently dug up photos of the late Queen Elizabeth II from two days before her death. The bruises on the late Queen's hand were compared with those of Trump's, fueling speculations about the President's health. A Reddit thread has been created where people have described patients in their families suffering from the same illness.
Despite the speculation, the White House maintains that Donald Trump is in "excellent condition." While his press schedule has been empty for weeks, Trump has been spotted at his Virginia golf club over the past weekend.
