White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Thursday that the president wears bandages on the back of his hand because he’s “literally constantly shaking hands.”
CNN host Jake Tapper isn’t buying the official White House explanation for Donald Trump sporting bandages on the back of his hand, arguing on “The Lead” that there’s more to the president’s health picture than has been revealed.
Tapper discussed the matter with CNN chief political analyst David Axelrod and ex-Trump aide Alyssa Farah Griffin after White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters Thursday that Trump wears the bandages as a result of “constantly shaking hands.”
“The White House gave the same explanation for bruising back in July,” Tapper said Thursday. “Obviously, he’s 79 years old. And there is something going on with his health that they’re not telling us, because otherwise, why did he have that MRI?”
As if that were even a slightly reasonable explanation.
I feel they’re not giving a decent reason on purpose. Better to leave everyone discussing so they’re distracted from the actual shit they’re pulling
I have bandages on my finger tips because I type on a keyboard all day. Without these bandages, by fingers would fall off!
