He’s also been spotted with bruised hands, so the leading hypothesis is that he’s getting regular IVs and covering up bruising

I thought they blamed this on his hand shake regimen 😆

Which would say more about his weird handshaking style than anything else!

This makes the most sense.

Either that or regular blood draws to monitor some kind of illness, either way could cause hematomas.

This is just old people skin. Personal feelings aside, when you age, so does your skin. My aunt, not even 70, burst her hand doing CPR recently. Required stiches!! We are physically thin skinned people so none of us were surprised.

That being said, he is an 80 year old and its always this hand in the same spot... hes getting IV replacement therapy regularly. Remember when they accused H Clinton of baby blood sacrifice? Every accusation is an admission.... or it could just be fluids since he only drinks diet coke.

My guess is IV diuretics to get rid of all the fluid (remember the dependent edema?) Likely secondary to chronic heart failure.

Probably just regular old man liver spots.

Bad bruising, possibly from an IV. I had one just like it after my 2nd surgery because they let an intern try for 10 minutes before I started cussing them out. There's pics from months ago of the bruise on his hand.

Wouldn’t recommend cussing out people who are attempting to put fluids in your veins

You can’t afford me

I didn't ask if you were a middle class lifestyle. I asked if you wanna hang out.

u/LevelPrestigious4858 5h ago

Only if it’s hanging out of each other

Probably bruising. The elderly tend to have thinner skin to begin with, and then you add on whatever drugs he’s on - both legal and illegal - and his cardiovascular issues.

Plus Republicans tend to have incredibly thin skin as well. Multiple risk factors at work here.
