US President Donald Trump has appeared on a podcast, but viewers have expressed concern over what they claim is a “swollen eye.” He was in conversation with “Pod Force One” interview with The Post’s Miranda Devine.
Sharing an image of Trump online, journalist Aaron Rupar said: “Look at how swollen the area under Trump’s right eye is in his latest podcast appearance.” His sentiments were echoed by another online user who said: “That was the first thing I noticed. Looks like someone punched him.”
It comes as the US President’s health condition has been in the talks for quite a while now. Recently, the White House released Mr Trump’s health report saying that the 79-year-old has gained weight and is in “excellent health”.
However, the report did not address a recent skin rash on the President’s neck.
Mr Trump’s latest medical summary from White House Physician Dr. Sean Barbabella again portrays a positive picture of his condition, stating that the president is “fully fit” and continues to show strong cardiac, pulmonary, neurological and overall physical performance.
His weight is now 238 pounds, about fourteen pounds higher than at his April 2025 physical. Barbabella added that he advised Trump to work on weight reduction through increased physical activity and dietary adjustments.
At 79 years old and entering the second year of his second term, Donald Trump continues to face scrutiny over his physical and cognitive health, a debate intensified by widely shared online clips, firm White House denials, and limited public disclosure about his medical status.
