The horror!<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s no secret, first, that Donald Trump shakes a lot of hands. Last month, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/saradorn\/2026\/05\/26\/trump-says-his-physical-went-perfectly-amid-speculation-over-bruised-hands-and-swollen-legs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Forbes<\/a>, the president\u2019s personal physician attributed the bruises to \u201cminor soft tissue irritation from frequent handshaking,\u201d according to Forbes.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also no secret that Donald Trump is getting older, and older people bruise more. Rare is the person who becomes stronger as they enter their later years, and the president is no exception \u2014 although he certainly seems mentally fit enough to do the job, more so than that \u201cbeer brewed here\u201d guy, and especially if the evidence at hand (pun unintended) is just a few bruises.<\/p>\n<p>But this isn\u2019t age. Consider that this happened to a 42-year-old beloved by liberals until a bullet took his life during the 1968 presidential campaign: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/rfk-legacy-doc-film-oliver-stone-draws-nexus-jfks-rfks-assassinations\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Robert F. Kennedy<\/a>, then a senator from New York.<\/p>\n<p>From a <a href=\"https:\/\/lithub.com\/the-last-days-of-robert-f-kennedy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Literary Hub<\/a> article on RFK Sr.\u2019s last few days on the campaign trail in California before the primary there:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em>Everywhere he went that spring it was the same: each night his hands would be chafed and bleeding. He <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/nyc-sues-starbucks-for-firing-of-union-organizer\/\" title=\"NYC Sues Starbucks for Firing of Union Organizer\">made physical contact<\/a> with more individuals during those few frenetic months than most people do in a lifetime.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>I can think of one person who\u2019s almost certainly shaken more hands: President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n<p>No one thinks that Robert F. Kennedy Sr. was too old for the job. In fact, the knock on him was quite the opposite: He was an inexperienced candidate who relied more on what now gets called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/kamala-harris-enlists-will-ferrell-yell-obscenities-male-voters-eve-election\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u201cvibes\u201d<\/a> to throw together an eclectic coalition of hippies and hard hats who believed the Vietnam War was a lost cause and America had better priorities than on any actual concrete policies.<\/p>\n<p>Nobody thought he was in ill health, either. Nor did they think that his mind was going. (Quite the opposite, given this was just months after his on-the-spot <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jfklibrary.org\/learn\/about-jfk\/the-kennedy-family\/robert-f-kennedy\/robert-f-kennedy-speeches\/statement-on-assassination-of-martin-luther-king-jr-april-4-1968\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">eulogy<\/a> for Martin Luther King Jr. the night he was murdered; love the man or loathe him, you cannot deny that the speech itself was one of the finest examples of extemporaneous public address in recorded American history.)<\/p>\n<p>And they didn\u2019t think that his hands being chafed and bleeding were the key to some strange mythology about RFK\u2019s health. In fact, Literary Hub published the revelation as part of an unabashed 2018 hagiography titled \u201cThe Last Days of Robert F. Kennedy: On the Radical Compassion of an American Icon.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But bruising because Donald Trump shakes too many hands? Must be fatal. Hilariously, these claims are very often made by the same people who wonder, in just a few breaths more, where the injury was to Trump\u2019s ear, under the assumption that the Butler, Pennsylvania, assassination attempt was faked.
