The so-called bruise, looks like an infected wound. It's surrounded by red, which looks like infection to me.

Red usually indicates inflammation, which may be a sign of infection but has other causes, such as trauma.

I find the name calling counter productive. I can’t stand that we have a president who sounds like a school boy with his insults and invectives and so it’s really disheartening that a serious journalist would also waste time thinking of insulting names for a person we all know is profoundly dangerous. So I would appreciate it if you could stick to your commentary and analysis without stooping to the name-calling that the president and his associates engage in.

How does someone who knows NOTHING about peace, create a "Board of Peace"? And since rhere is NO PEACE IN GAZA, I find that pretty remarkable! He has not stopped Israel from killing Palestians (failed ceasefire), hasn't convinced putin to get the fuck out of Ukraine (no peace deal) and continue to talk about who he can invade! Who does he think he is fooling?

Maybe it's part of something he calls the Noble Peace Prize. I've never heard of it, but then I'd never heard of the FIFA Peace Prize and he got that.

Good point, Robert - his teeny teeny, one-cell brain is mush!

Not only a buised ego but now also a bruised hand. Let's give the poor schmuck a medal, a trophy, another billion dollars and a ballroom. Hell, let's give him Greenland (ICEland) already.

Pharmacist here. Aspirin alone would not account from bruises like that forming on someone's hand after a mere bump (unless he positively *slammed* his hand into that table.) It would take either a stronger antiplatelet in combination with aspirin, a full-on anticoagulant (aka "blood thinner") or a clotting disorder.

@zeteo why aren't you covering iran?

Your silence is compliance.

Thousands of people are being murdered and this evil islamic regime reigns with pure terror.

Why arent you covering Rojova?

Syria and Turkey are attempting a distabllisation of the only truly democratic place in the entirety of West Asia.

Why are you not reporting?

And RFK, Jr. looks to be a paragon of health. Please. His skin is the color of a baloney hot dog.

Some days I feel like the only hope is the icy hand of death…. My fear is that modern medicine can keep his corpse operating for a few more years :-0
