Former President Donald Trump recently found himself at the center of a viral conspiracy—this time, not for his words, but for a mysterious bulge spotted near his leg.
The buzz began after Trump, 78, attended a UFC event in New Jersey, shortly after meeting military officials at Camp David to discuss protests in Los Angeles. Posing with a championship belt, Trump appeared upbeat—yet sharp-eyed supporters noticed a strange protrusion on his upper leg in one photo. Days later, during a Rose Garden appearance on June 10, press images captured another noticeable bulge near his lower leg.
The internet ignited.
Speculation ranged from catheters to knee braces, with some users suggesting exoskeleton support or even bulletproof gear. “He is wearing a urine bag or something,” one person claimed. Others were more skeptical, brushing it off as “just wrinkled pants.”
Despite the chatter, Trump’s physician, Dr. Sean Barbabella, declared him in “excellent health” after a recent five-hour evaluation, including cognitive, cardiac, and neurological tests—all of which he passed with flying colors.
Still, the online fascination proves one thing: even a wrinkle in Trump’s trousers can set the internet ablaze.
