Donald Trump is making headlines... again. This time, it's not because of one of his many Twitter rants or press conferences, like a recent one where he made inappropriate comments when talking about the George Floyd case.

No, this time, it's a tweet from The Lincoln Project that's got everyone talking. The video they posted on Twitter this past weekend shows the president of the United States very clearly struggling to walk to make it down a relatively gradual set of stairs.
After giving a speech at West Point Military Academy's graduation ceremony, Donald Trump gripped the ramp very tightly as he walked off-stage. The Lincoln Project tweeted the following:
Is the President of the United States physically well? pic.twitter.com/6R4GExT0KL

But there's more cause for concern where that came from. Trump was recently seen holding his glass with both hands to drink, and he had trouble pronouncing "General Douglas MacArthur." But it wasn't long before Donald Trump clapped back to debunk the rumours. He posted a tweet about his health in an attempt to silence those who make these claims:
The ramp that I descended after my West Point Commencement speech was very long & steep, had no handrail and, most importantly, was very slippery. The last thing I was going to do is “fall” for the Fake News to have fun with. Final ten feet I ran down to level ground. Momentum!

At least his supporters are reassured.
