Trump appears with red rash on neck

Donald Trump appeared at a White House event on Monday with a prominent red rash on his neck, which his doctor attributed to a "preventative" treatment.
An AFP photograph showed a red area with several brownish scabs protruding above his shirt collar on the right side of the neck of the 79-year-old president, the oldest ever elected.
"President Trump is using a very common cream on the right side of his neck, which is a preventative skin treatment, prescribed by the White House Doctor," presidential physician Sean Barbabella said in a statement to AFP.
"The president is using this treatment for one week, and the redness is expected to last for a few weeks."
The red patch was spotted during a Medal of Honor presentation ceremony, after a busy weekend in which Trump launched US military strikes on Iran.
Trump has previously been seen with bruises on his hands, which the White House attributed to aspirin use.
But some in the medical field remain unconvinced. Dr. Vin Gupta, a medical analyst for MS NOW and former Chief Medical Officer at Amazon, theorized the rash could in fact be “pre-cancerous.”
“The White House medical team didn’t know [Trump] got a CT scan. They claimed it was a MRI for weeks,” Gupta wrote, referencing an apparent “MRI” that Trump let slip he had in October 2025—an examination the White House originally kept under wraps.
“Now instead of acknowledging he might have a pre-cancerous skin condition, they dance around the issue,” Gupta continued. “Trying to fool the public just makes it worse.”
Gupta wasn’t the only physician with something to say about Trump’s irritated, bright-red skin. Dr. Jonathan Reiner, cardiologist to the late former Vice President Dick Cheney, also raised concerns about the White House’s statement—including a theory that it might not have been written by the physician himself.
“The hint that this statement might not have actually been written by Dr Barbabella is that in it, he says that the medication was ‘prescribed by the White House Doctor’. He’s the WH Doctor,” Reiner wrote on X.
In a separate post, Reiner, who is a medical analyst on CNN, wrote: “Preventative skin treatments (such as topical 5 flurouracil) are commonly used to prevent overt skin cancer in people with precancerous skin lesions. We don’t know what specific treatment the president is receiving, but why all the secrecy for something that is potentially easy to treat and very common in older people?”
This isn’t the first time the White House has been accused of downplaying health concerns about Trump, the oldest president ever sworn into office. Throughout his second term, the Daily Beast has extensively reported on questions surrounding Trump’s health, including mental slip-ups, slurred words, and his efforts to cover bruising on his hands. For months, the White House has asserted that the bruising stems from the president’s frequent handshaking.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
