Donald Trump’s granddaughter appeared to provide an insight into her famous grandfather’s well-being during a casual golf outing with him.
In a refreshing departure from the typical ups and downs of American politics, the US President was featured in a golfing video over the weekend with his granddaughter, Kai Trump, at a Virginia course.
Kai, the oldest daughter of Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr., and his ex-wife, Vanessa (who is reportedly now dating Tiger Woods), posted the video of herself and “Grandpa” Trump enjoying a round of golf on her YouTube channel.
In the hour-long footage, the 18-year-old, who is currently completing her final year at a private school in Miami, Florida, explained how they had been golfing together for “years” and that it had become their way of ” spending time together.”
After the opening segment, Kai and Trump, wearing his red Make America Great Again baseball cap and operating a golf cart, began their game. But when they arrived at the 10th hole, the former reality television star shared a revelation about his health.
Upon completing the 10th, Trump proposed they play a complete round, since they were “moving fast”, and Kai consented. He then courteously inquired if his team objected to them continuing, and the camera quickly cut to the duo advancing in the cart.
While on the road, Trump remarked: “Okay. Well, that way, we have a score. Because if you play nine, they think something’s wrong with you. If you only play nine, they’ll say, ‘Oh, is there something wrong with him?'”.
Kai responded with a brief comment about their health, stating: “Nothing’s wrong with us.”

Trump then asserted: “Nothing’s…nobody can play golf like that and have something wrong.”
She pointed out they were “one under” in “under an hour”, while Trump bragged it was “called talent”. Shortly after this, as he moved towards the 11th hole, he called out to a group of golfers that their “taxes are coming down”.
In recent weeks, there has been increased focus on the US President’s health following a series of public appearances and absences that have fueled speculation about Trump’s possible decline.
Contrary to an update from his doctor claiming his cardiac age is approximately 14 years younger than his actual age of 79, Trump has been seen with swollen ankles and bruises on his hands.
Trump reportedly had his annual health checkup at the Walter Reed Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland. His physician, Navy Captain Sean Barbabella, declared that Trump was in “exceptional health”.
He stated: “President Donald J. Trump remains in exceptional health, exhibiting strong cardiovascular, pulmonary, neurological and physical performance.”
Yet, speculation about his health continues, partly driven by photographs that seem to reveal bruises on Trump’s hands hidden under makeup. Meanwhile, the White House attributed the bruises to “frequent handshaking” and aspirin use.
Another such episode happened during a public event honoring 9/11 victims. Trump was photographed with one side of his face appearing to droop, though it was observed that he seemed normal when the images were captured.
Additional incidents that may have fueled health speculation include his apparent need to clutch a podium for support, swollen ankles, public absences, and what the Mirror characterized as “Trump’s ramblings”.
