President Donald Trump’s recent stint on 60 Minutes has raised more questions than it answered, with fans expressing concern over the leader’s health.
The President sat down for an unexpected interview with CBS correspondent Norah O’Donnell, which aired on Sunday. However, as snippets of the conversation made their way onto social media, a number of users, mainly Democratic commentators, noted that the 79-year-old looked “tired” and “absolutely awful.”
Ignoring these jibes, Trump took to Truth Social to announce his upcoming appearance on 60 Minutes, stating, “getting ready to watch President Donald J Trump (Me! ) on 60 Minutes.” Not long after, he posted again, saying, “I will be interviewed on 60 Minutes right after the Kansas City / Buffalo NFL Football Game. Hopefully, they will treat me as well as they did Kamala. Enjoy!” It comes after the daughter of Trump’s doctor made a bombshell claim about his health.

As the Chiefs-Bills game unfolded, Trump expressed his desire for the NFL to return to its former glory. “I HATE WATCHING THE NFL’S NEW KICK OFF RULE. IT’S RIDICULOUS – TAKES THE PAGEANTRY AND GLAMOUR AWAY FROM THE GAME, AND DOES NOTHING FOR SAFETY,” he vented.
“HOPEFULLY COLLEGE FOOTBALL WILL NEVER MAKE THIS RIDICULOUS CHANGE! IN THE MEANTIME, I’M GETTING READY TO WATCH PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP (ME! ) ON 60 MINUTES.

Despite his NFL tirade and the subjects discussed in his interview, it was his physical appearance that became the hot topic on social media following the broadcast. “This is Trump on 60 Minutes right now. He looks absolutely awful.
He’s incoherent, rambling, and looks like he’s dripping in sweat. This man is not well!” wrote left-wing political influencer Harry Sisson on X.

“He’s probably getting Botox shots to keep his face from dropping,” another viewer criticized. A third critic chimed in, “He’s just an old man. And the orange tint to his face really does look strange. You can tell he’s not entirely well from his answers and his daily changes of opinion. Nobody in Europe takes him seriously anymore.”
However, some came to Trump’s defense, with one supporter stating, “Probably because he is working harder than anyone else I’ve ever seen in politics or any president I’ve seen in my entire life. They ALL promise and NEVER deliver.”
That’s just media spin again. Trump handled tough questions with confidence and real facts,” another defended, adding, “Especially on jobs, the economy, and border security. Meanwhile, polls show most Americans trust his leadership over the D.C. establishment drama.”

Last month, Trump announced that he underwent an MRI and a cognitive test after his physician pronounced in a note that the president is in “excellent overall health.”
“I got an MRI, it was perfect,” he shared, without offering any other details. This came as the White House was repeatedly questioned about photos of the 79-year-old’s swollen ankles and bruised hand coated in makeup that surfaced. It was revealed that the president has been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency.
It comes after a lip reader revealed Trump’s furious 8-word question to Melania as he went into a meltdown on board Marine One.
