Trump health fears as ‘eyes close and mouth drooping’ at White House event

US President Donald Trump appeared to doze off during a White House Healthcare Affordability Event, with video footage showing his eyes closing and mouth drooping, sparking renewed health concerns

US President Donald Trump seemed to nod off during a White House event.

Trump held a Health Care Affordability Event on Thursday, April 24, but has ignited health worries himself as his eyes shut and mouth appeared to sag while others were delivering speeches.

One X user shared the video, in which the US leader repeatedly closes his eyes for a few seconds at a time while his head leans to one side.

The user commented: “Trump is fighting total war against wokeness as his eyes close and his mouth droops”.

Another remarked: “Trump dozes off at his event on affordability.”

And a third observed: “Trump takes a quick nap in the Oval Office.”

The peculiar moment occurred as Trump spoke to journalists inside the Oval Office about the ongoing conflict with Iran, where he was also asked if he would employ a nuclear weapon.

“No, I wouldn’t,” Trump responds. “Why would I need it? Why would a stupid question like that be asked? Why would I use a nuclear weapon when we totally, in a very convincing way, decimated them?”

“A nuclear weapon should never be allowed to be used by anybody.”
