Livestream Looks Ignite Rumors
The president's eldest son, 48, appeared on a May 5 livestream announcing a new episode and at times seemed to squint as his eyes looked bleary and glassy. He told followers his podcast schedule was "a little off" after a "pretty crazy travel" week, noting trips between his South Florida home and the White House for a sleepover with his father. Critics flooded the comments on X, with many suggesting his appearance made him look "high" and demanding, "Why the f--- are your eyes so bloodshot?"
A Familiar Controversy
Don Jr. has faced similar accusations before: his glassy appearance during the 2020 RNC speech sparked cocaine rumors, which he denied, once attributing the look to lighting and pushing back by saying people confused him with Hunter Biden. In response to the latest claims he called the attacks partisan and "pretty ridiculous," saying detractors target anything they can when they can't attack delivery or substance.
