Concerns about the US President’s health never cease to exist. Now, people are worried that there might be something wrong with Donald Trump’s legs. The fresh speculations arose after he went to oversee an ongoing construction project at the Rose Garden.
On Monday, Trump returned to the White House from Camp David, Maryland, and headed out to the site. He was spotted standing on a wooden board placed on the lawn while conversing with the construction workers. However, what truly got people talking were his legs.
The photographs from his visit quickly became a hot topic on social media platforms. People zoomed in on the snaps and noticed an unusual shape in his trousers. It didn’t take long for theories to start spreading on the internet, as many joined in to discuss if Trump’s legs were okay, reports Irish Star.
One X (formerly Twitter) shared four images of his legs, captioning, “What’s going on here?” One user responded that it might be leg braces to “prevent the leaning.” Another X user also shared similar opinions. “It looks like he may have bilateral lower leg braces on. I have seen right sided arm droop and foot droop before.”
Another curious individual added, “He always has to sit down when he’s doing his press conferences. Something is definitely up with his legs.” A third attempted to add some insights, “Someone who is a nurse told me that he has a catheter, and that’s what makes his one leg lag like that.”

One person chimed in, “He’s wearing AFOs. Ankle Foot Orthotics. For foot drop. I wear one because of nerve damage to my spine. That’s exactly what my pant leg looks like.”
However, most people seemed to agree with the catheter theory. “Foley catheter. Urinary incontinence is a symptom of late stage Prefrontal Temporal Dementia,” one user wrote.
As the images went viral, more and more people joined in to discuss whether Donald Trump is truly in “excellent cognitive and physical health” as claimed in his annual medical report, released by the White House.
Earlier this year, the Republican President visited the Walter Reed hospital in Bethesda, Maryland, to undergo almost a five-hour physical examination. Several blood tests, ultrasounds, and a cardiac examination were conducted during the session.
The 78-year-old also underwent several neurological tests to determine his mental health status, motor and sensory function, and nerves. In the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), he scored 30 out of 30, according to the Irish Star.

Later, he boasted, “I got the highest mark.” Trump commented that the MoCA result shows he has a “good heart, a good soul.”
Despite his claims, concerns have long been raised about his health. Rick Wilson, a political strategist for the GOP, claimed that he could be showing signs of cognitive decline.
“He is incoherent. His inability to articulate any thought or position without constant asides, constant lapses, the verbal aphasias he is experiencing at various points,” Wilson told Times Radio.
