Fact Check: No, Trump Did Not Keep One Hand Gloved to Hide Dark Bruising on His Hand

An MS Now reporter made much of President Donald Trump keeping a glove on one of his hands during a stop he made in an Iowa restaurant Tuesday.

“After a dark-colored bruise was spotted on Trump’s left hand last week, the President keeps his left glove on during a restaurant stop in Iowa,” MS Now’s White House correspondent Jake Traylor posted on social media.

The White House responded on X, “FAKE Traylor strikes again.”
