Overview

• Photographer Andres Kudacki captured the image during the men’s final in New York, showing a small light-blue item between the president’s teeth.
• Kudacki said he could not identify the object and used the word “tablet” to describe what could be either a mint or a pill.
• A White House aide told The Independent and other outlets the item was a mint, though there is no independent confirmation beyond the photo and the statement.
• Social media users speculated about various medications, including aspirin, Adderall, Viagra, or a diuretic, despite the lack of evidence.
• Recent official updates said Trump has chronic venous insufficiency with visible swelling and bruising partly attributed to aspirin use, while an April physical reported excellent cognitive and physical health.
