Did Donald Trump have a stroke? Fears for President’s health as face seriously droops at recent event

Donald Trump recently attended a 9/11 event and one thing that immediately stood out to those watching was that the president did not look very well. As a matter of fact it looked like he might have had a stroke as his face was visibly drooping on one side.

Those who watched the event on Thursday flocked to X and they were all saying the same thing. “Trump looks like he just had a stroke, wow.” wrote one, “he looks like he had a stroke,” added another. In the photos shared online it is very clear that the right side of Trump’s face appears to be drooping. The lips fall down his face in an unintentional frown and also looks as if he’s struggling to keep his eyes open.

Is Donald Trump okay?

While there hasn’t been any official word from the White House clarifying the health status of the president, many are having a hard time dismissing what they are seeing before their very eyes. Many have already started concocting conspiracies of cover-ups, claiming that the government is trying to hide the fact that the president is seriously ill.

These images and videos of Trump at the event come a couple of weeks after the president went missing for quite an extended period of time. At the end of August he made practically no public appearances and people instantly jumped to the conclusion that he may have died

Of course, we now know that that wasn’t the case unless they’ve managed to clone him (a terrifying thought I know). Donald Trump is definitely alive, but whether or not he’s in tip-top condition remains to be seen.

It could have been something else

Of course, diagnosing someone through our screens isn’t the most accurate method. There could be any number of reasons that Trump looked the way he did. While plenty thought it looked as though he’d had a stroke, others were quick to jump to the president’s defense as they claimed it was more likely he was simply rattled from the shooting of Charlie Kirk which had happened the day prior.

The president was apparently close with the right-wing figure. He released a statement regarding the shooting of Kirk shortly after it occurred although some eagle eyed viewers think they’ve spotted tell-tale signs that the clip was manipulated with AI. Obviously this has only further driven speculation that something is wrong with Donald.

Donald Trump was also seen attending a Yankees game where he appeared to look a lot more lively and healthy. Perhaps he just simply needed to take a power nap. Whatever the case, his current medical status is unclear and his appearance at yesterday’s event is hardly conclusive proof that the president suffered a stroke.
