(The Hill) President Donald Trump appeared on the golf course Saturday, quashing rumors about potential health concerns keeping him out of the public eye.

He was seen at Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Va., following several days without public appearances on his schedule. The lack of events sparked a wave of social media speculation regarding the president’s health, especially after a photograph showing bruising on his hand during a White House Cabinet meeting gained attention online.

Veteran journalist Laura Rozen has been closely following the president’s activities on social platform X, engaging public curiosity about Trump’s absence from the media. On Saturday, she shared photos of the president at his Virginia golf course.

Vice President Vance also addressed Trump’s health earlier this week in a Wednesday interview with USA Today. Vance said he remains ready to step in if necessary but emphasized that the president is in “incredibly good health.”

“Yes, terrible tragedies happen,” he stated. “But I feel very confident the president of the United States is in good shape, is going to serve out the remainder of his term, and do great things for the American people.”

The vice president added, “And if, God forbid, there’s a terrible tragedy, I can’t think of better on-the-job training than what I’ve gotten over the last 200 days.”

His comments come just over a year after Trump’s ear was grazed by a bullet during an assassination attempt at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania.

Trump, 79, became the oldest president to be sworn in when he returned to the Oval Office in January.

Speculation around his health was also reignited last month after White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt announced during a press briefing that he had undergone testing for swelling in his legs and bruises on his hands, such as the one shone in the photo that circulated earlier this month.

He was diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency, a common condition for people over 70 where their veins struggle to pump blood back up to the heart. The bruises are often covered up with makeup.

Vance and other Trump allies have brushed off potential health issues, pointing to the president’s stamina and energy.

“He’s the last person making phone calls at night, and he’s the first person who wakes up and the first person making phone calls in the morning,” the vice president said Wednesday.

The concerns also come as Trump has seen a dip in his approval rating in recent polling.

The president also sat for an in-person interview with The Daily Caller earlier this week, which was published on Saturday.
