United States President Donald Trump appeared wearing a thick layer of makeup in his right hand. Photos of an event in Washington on Friday (22) reveal the American using what appears to be based on a tone lighter than his skin. On the same day, in a meeting with FIFA President Gianni Infantino, Trump again appeared with his hands covered.
This is not the first time Trump has tried to disguise the appearance of the hand with heavy makeup. In July, base use, in addition to the swollen appearance of ankles, generated speculation about the health of the US president. This caused the White House to disclose the diagnosis of chronic venous insufficiency.
As Estadão showed, it is a condition in which the veins, usually from the lower limbs, have difficulty returning blood to the heart, resulting in increased venous pressure.
