  • The POTUS shook hands with a man who was diagnosed with coronavirus
  • Trump breathed heavily during his recent coronavirus update 

Donald Trump sparked new health concerns after he was photographed shaking hands with a man who previously tested positive for the deadly coronavirus.

According to Political Flare, the POTUS had dinner with a Brazilian official who tested positive for the virus while he was at Mar-a-Lago last weekend. Shortly after, the president gave Americans the latest update on the outbreak, and he was seen sniffing and breathing heavily during his speech.

Twitter user @schnd uploaded an edited video of Melania Trump’s husband where he could be heard breathing heavily while making out the words from the teleprompter.

“My teenage daughter edited together a version of trump's address with only heavy breathing moments and I honestly don't think I've ever been prouder of her. Parental discretion advised,” she captioned the snap.

Other netizens expressed their concerns over Trump’s deteriorating health. Two weeks ago, a White House staff confirmed that the POTUS hadn’t been sleeping because he’s preoccupied due to the pandemic.

“This is the worst I've ever seen Trump. He looks like a [expletive] hostage with the meat sweats. Less energy than Ben Carson on heroin. Can't even say two fucking words without getting winded and sniffing back Adderall residue. His fecal matter façade is crumbling & he knows it,” Twitter user @AidenWolfe said.

“Sniffing, short of breath, lifeless hollow eyes, low energy, as Trump read from the teleprompter he looked sick. Does he have Covid-19? He has been touching many people who we know were exposed. That would be karma # PresidentialAddress # TrumpAddress,” Twitter user @duty2warn said.

“He is literally snorting and gasping while giving a presidential address about a virus,” Twitter user @RadioFreeTom said.

“Trump is sniffing and snuffing again. He's having trouble breathing and looks like [expletive]. ‘Our team is the best team anywhere in the world.’ Yeah, which is why there aren't enough tests, and he lied his [expletive] lardass off about everything,” Twitter user @khwalz said.
