US President Donald Trump's health has been under scrutiny after a new bald spot was spotted during a recent press conference. The development comes shortly after rumors emerged about Trump's hospitalization at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. While the White House has denied the claims, speculation continues to surround Trump's health.
Trump's bald spot has been attributed to alopecia areata, an autoimmune condition that causes hair loss. The condition has left a smooth, exposed area on Trump's scalp.
Rumors about Trump's health first surfaced after the White House declared a 'lid' on Saturday, April 4, sparking speculation about his hospitalization. Prediction markets and commentators amplified the theory, but there was no confirmation from the White House.
However, White House Communications Director Steven Cheung released a statement claiming that Trump was 'working nonstop' at the White House and Oval Office throughout the Easter weekend. Despite this, Trump faced calls for his impeachment after sharing an expletive-laden threat to Iran, sparking demands for consideration of section 4 of the 25th Amendment.
