At one point in the video, as the camera pans to Trump overlooking his course, the back of his left hand comes into view, showing a dark discoloration nearly identical in placement to the one on his right hand.
Videos and photos can sometimes be mirrored, but here its clearly his left hand, since the TRUMP logo on the back of Trumps hat is correctly oriented.
When reached for comment, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt did not deny the existence of a new bruise.
President Trump is a man of the people and he meets more Americans and shakes their hands on a daily basis than any other President in history. His commitment is unwavering and he proves that every single day, Leavitt told the Daily Beast in a statement.

I'm wondering if he went to support Nancy Mace and greeted all eight of the people that showed up at her rally?
This could've done it.

Magats may believe her though, and that's all they care about.
I'm sure that her explanation will show up as an argument supporting Trump on many social media.

The 79-year-old president hit the links with former Major League Baseball player Roger Clemens and his son Kacy at Trump National Golf Club in Virginia on Saturday.

Trump Desperately Hides Hand on Camera After Makeup Mishap
HAND OVER FIST
The MAGA figurehead conspicuously took matters into his own hands after a glob of makeup failed to do the trick.

President Donald Trump was captured on camera noticeably hiding his right hand heavily caked in makeup as he spoke to journalists from the Oval Office at the end of the week.
Trump, 79, had a full presidential plate on Friday: He visited National Guard troops, deployed

Trump trying so hard to hide the back of his right hand from the cameras makes me wonder if he's got the Epstein Files transcribed onto it

(61,033 posts)so the docs had to switch to his other hand. And the bullshit coming out of press sec'y Leavitt is such disgusting spin as many know that TSF is a well known germaphobe as does not shake more hands than in president in history. The reverse is more likely to the germaphobic trump.
