Donald Trump has been raiding the makeup cupboard again, slathering his hand with concealer during a golf trip.<\/p>\n

The 79-year-old president snubbed<\/a> a vigil held for slain MAGA activist Charlie Kirk on Sunday, opting for a weekend at his Bedminster golf club in New Jersey instead. While there, the recurring patch of concealer was pictured on his right hand, which regularly hosts a deep purple bruise.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, as Trump made his way to board Air Force One before departing from Morristown Municipal Airport, a press-pool photographer managed to capture the patch, which was also visible<\/a> as he attended a Yankees game last week.<\/p>\n

So too did Republican strategist Nicole Kiprilov<\/a>, who recorded Trump ranting about his critics during a gala at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster. \u201cSmart people don\u2019t like me, you know? And they don\u2019t like what we talk about,\u201d Trump told attendees, including Kiprilov, whose video reveals the makeup as it pans towards the president.<\/p>\n

It comes as Brandi Boulet, a Canadian makeup artist who helped actor Sebastian Stan transform into young Trump for the film The Apprentice, spoke out about the attempted cover-up of the mark on his hand.<\/p>\n

\u201cHow can you be in that position and not have somebody be able to cover a bruise? It looks like somebody just mashed on some foundation,\u201d she told the Washington Post<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Her comments come at a time when Trump\u2019s health, and his hands in particular, are under close scrutiny. Texas Democrat Jasmine Crockett led the charge during an appearance on the Grounded podcast<\/a> earlier this month. \u201cDonald Trump\u2019s hand looks like it\u2019s about to fall off,\u201d the congresswoman said.<\/p>\n

The Trump-baiting California governor, Gavin Newsom, couldn\u2019t resist a jibe, either. \u201cWe talking hands?\u201d he asked on X, haring a super-cut of the president\u2019s recurring bruises, after Trump had questioned his own \u201cstrange hand action.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis cover-up is even sloppier than the Epstein one,\u201d said Jimmy Kimmel on his Sept. 2 show. \u201cHow could anyone let him go out like this?\u201d<\/p>\n

More generally, Trump\u2019s health has been in the spotlight. During a Pentagon event last week to commemorate the 24th anniversary of the 9\/11 terror attacks, the right side of the president\u2019s face sparked a wave of online speculation.<\/p>\n

\u201cHis face was very droopy, he seemed addled, like he didn\u2019t even know where he was,\u201d host Ben Meiselas said on the MeidasTouch podcast last week.<\/p>\n

The White House revealed in July that the president has been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency, a condition that occurs when leg vein valves fail, causing blood to pool. Trump has since been seen with swollen ankles.<\/p>\n

A four-day disappearance from public view last month only intensified speculation about his condition\u2014sparking speculation that he might be seriously ill or even dead. The White House blames his inflamed hand on handshaking and aspirin use.<\/p>\n

The Daily Beast has reached out to the White House for further comment.<\/p>\n
