The President sent people into a frenzy after many noticed a habit crop up while boarding Air Force One. Previously, Donald Trump caused health fears to rocket as he struggled to "walk in a straight line".
Now recent footage emerged of Donald Trump boarding the aircraft after a weekend of golf at the Trump National Golf Club in New Jersey. Many couldn't help but notice something rather off with the 80-year-old as he strolled across the runway in a blue suit and white and gold USA cap. Since the video was shared on X, viewers labeled the President's health as "declining".
In the X caption, it read: "WATCH: Here's Donald Trump boarding Air Force One en route to Washington DC, after spending the weekend at Trump National Bedminster! Notice about his appearance?" It comes after Trump debuted a fourth new look in a week after he was savagely ridiculed for his hair makeover.

People rushed to the comments section as one said: "He keeps tapping his leg for some reason." While another added: "What is up with tapping the leg?"
A third commented: "The walking dead." Then a fourth chimed in: "I think that tap to his right leg is a dementia tic," to which the original poster replied: "Indeed."
Others labeled him a "disaster", while others pointed out the habit has happened multiple times previously.

Someone said: "He's slapping his leg again! Either I'm just noticing it, or he's doing it far more frequently. Is it a physical tic he can't control? A self-soothing habit?"
This isn't the first time Trump caused health fears to explode following a public appearance. Previously, viewers on X alleged he couldn't walk in a straight line, suggesting he had a limp.
On another occasion, his hands appeared to look bruised and swollen too. The President caused alarm bells when people reportedly said his hands were "rotting" with some comparing them to "stuffed sausages".
The speculation came at the start of the month when as onlookers couldn't help but glare as his hands.
One image appeared on social media, alongside the caption: "Trump's hands appear to be rotting more than usual today." Naturally, the post sparked a lot of debate.
In the photo, you'll notice that Trump's hands are pictured clasped together, with some claiming they looked a little puffy. Others also said they could spot bruising too.
It comes after the President was mocked for posting an obviously AI-enhanced photo with Gary Player at the weekend.
Trump attended the golf event, joining nine-time major champion Gary Player and the governor of the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund (PIF) Yasir Al-Rumayyan.
Meanwhile, a worrying picture of Trump with 'multiple huge bruises' and a white mark on his arm sparked health conspiracies.
