WASHINGTON, 07 August. - (ANA) - Sky News viewers raised concerns about Donald Trump's health as they broadcast scenes from the White House. The Commander in Chief was signing his executive order on birthright citizenship and discussing the Iran war in the clip. However, viewers were distracted by his "unwell" appearance. Taking to X, they shared their opinions with one penning: "It's time for a medical examination and see how far along his dementia has come. This dude is gone..." Another agreed writing: "Dementia is getting worse for diaper Donnie." A third queried: "Is Trump okay? He sounds unwell." A fourth raged: "The man is fng delusional." Meanwhile, a fifth commented: "He's been saying that since day 1, deluded."

 

In June this year, Trump's own niece issued a stark warning about his health, claiming his condition is deteriorating both mentally and physically. Mary Trump, a psychologist and author, said her uncle's "decaying" health can no longer be overlooked and suggested he is trapped in a "downward spiral".

 

White House spokesman Steven Cheung hit back strongly at her claims, dismissing her assessment and branding her a "stone-cold loser who doesn't have a clue about anything".

 

During the signing session, Trump discussed the Iran war and claimed the opposing country "couldn't go on much longer".

 

"Oil prices now are coming down very rapidly. If you look at oil prices, they are coming down very rapidly now...When I started the very important excursion into the Islamic Republic of Iran, it was a very important excursion because they can't have a nuclear weapon," he said.

 

"Otherwise, the whole world would get blown up. We're not going to let that happen. Not only us, not only the Middle East. The whole world would have been. It would have been catastrophic.

 

"Oil was down to gasoline was down at numbers that people hadn't seen in years: $1.85, $1.95. So it passed Tuesday. I was in Iowa at a stop, and we had 195, another one 185 a gallon.

 

"We'll see those days pretty soon again, based on everything I see, as soon as the war ends, and I think it's going to end pretty soon. I don't think they can go much longer."

 

Explaining what he was basing this statement on, he said: "We have a thing called the blockade headed up by the U.S. Navy, and we control it. And now we control it, but they can always shoot something...or drop a mine.

 

"And if you have one mine sitting out there, you sort of mess things up because people don't want to take their billion-dollar boats and accidentally get hit by a mine. But I think we're doing very well. I'm involved in the negotiation. I think we're doing fine," he said. - (ANA) -
