Is the president out of breath? One major political influencer says so.

In a post on X on Sunday, the account known as “Donk Media” posted a 35-second video of the president sitting in the presidential limo, looking particularly out of breath. “Trump seems to be gasping for air in the beast,” the post said, referring to the presidential limousine. “Those were some steep stairs he walked down.”

On Sunday, the president was in the Chicago area to attend the President’s Cup, according to his public schedule, which also included plenty of “executive time.” It’s not clear exactly when and where the video was taken, although it likely was after he stepped off the Air Force One stairs upon his arrival in Chicago on Sunday morning.

Social media users shared thoughts on the video and what it might say about Trump’s health.

Last week, when he met with Chinese President Xi Jinping, Trump made clear attempts to hide at least one of his health conditions. According to The Daily Beast, “Trump’s right hand was visibly caked in makeup as he stood beside Xi before starting a full day of meetings followed by a state dinner. Xi and Trump are expected to discuss artificial intelligence amid a heated race for dominance between the U.S. and China, as well as global trade and geopolitics, including Trump’s war with Iran and tensions over Taiwan.”
