Trump's Cankles Make a Surprise Cameo in China [View all]

Donald Trump’s cankles made a brief appearance during the president’s three-day state visit to China this week.

While Trump, 79, managed to keep his lower legs largely hidden throughout the trip, a CNN segment with Jake Tapper and Kaitlan Collins on Friday featured footage of the president sitting next to Chinese President Xi Jinping with his swollen ankles very much visible.

Additional video of the two leaders taking a walk shows Trump appearing to lumber as they walk down a concrete pathway, with Xi pointing out an off-camera feature to his American counterpart.

But if Trump displayed his well-known medical problem, he gushed about Chinese President Xi’s body. Trump told Sean Hannity on Thursday that if someone were making a film featuring a Chinese leader, they wouldn’t have to look beyond the 72-year-old Communist Party chief.
