After several days out of the spotlight, President Donald Trump, 79, was seen on August 30, 2025, leaving the White House for his Virginia golf club with his grandchildren Kai and Spencer. Dressed in his signature red MAGA hat, white polo, and black pants, his outing ended a wave of online rumors about his health.

Speculation began when the White House released a blank Labor Day schedule, with no public events listed. The president’s absence sparked conspiracy theories, but his return quieted some of the chatter.

Vice President JD Vance quickly defended Trump, insisting the president remains energetic and fit to serve. Still, critics continue to question his health, noting makeup on his hand at a recent press event and past reports of mild swelling in his legs.

Despite ongoing speculation, Trump has kept up his golf outings and public appearances — even surprising many earlier this month by walking across the White House roof, a moment that quickly went viral online.
