US President Donald Trump limped while playing a recent game of golf at his Mar-a-Lago compound in Florida, fueling questions about his health. A going-viral clip captures the 78-year-old gingerly emerging from his golf cart, dragging his right leg slightly before playing a shot.
The video has ignited mass speculation, with some using social media to discuss whether his actions are a sign of a deeper health problem. “Looks like he is dragging that right leg. Hmmm,” one user wrote, while another labeled his steps as “wobbly.”

Health Issues Take Hold Online
This is coming after recent scrutiny of Trump’s health. In his meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron, the apparent bruise on the back of Trump’s hand caused additional talk. On Monday, other marks were noted on his palm while he delivered remarks at a White House ceremony regarding a massive investment from Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC).
Speculation about Trump’s mobility, most notably his right leg, has been ongoing for years. His every move has been scrutinized, with everyone from critics to supporters offering opinion on his health.
White House Addresses Concerns
Even with the increasing debates, the White House has made no official statement to show that Donald Trump is experiencing any severe health problems. But White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt responded to the reigning issues, saying to Fox News Digital, “President Trump is a man of the people and he meets more Americans and shakes their hands daily than any other President in history.”
Though there has been no official word regarding health issues, the video contributed to continued speculation regarding Trump’s health as he pursues his presidency.
