Donald Trump has confirmed that he wore compression socks to treat his cankles amid growing scrutiny over his health as America’s oldest president.
In an explosive interview about his medical treatments, Trump also admitted that he applies makeup to his hands, saying that the large daily dose of aspirin he takes to thin his blood causes them to bruise easily.
The Daily Beast has led the way in reporting on Trump’s efforts to hide his swollen ankles and the globs of makeup on his hands. Other media outlets largely ignored these issues, and the president and his inner circle have adamantly denied that he had any problems.
But in an interview with the Wall Street Journal on Thursday, Trump said he wore medical compression socks to help with swelling in his ankles.



you must not have much personal experience with these people. at some point you gotta know how far you can get with them, otherwise you will burn out and become horrendously cynical. btw i never said we should just give up and listen to podcasts. im just offering you a window into a family split down maga vs progressive lines and how they (the magats) will do anything to justify their position rather than listen and absorb new information.
