Donald Trump has been pictured with a heavy layer of make-up applied to his hand.

The US president appeared to have a thick coating of foundation or concealer covering his right hand when he visited a museum located next to the White House on Friday.

Mr Trump, who spoke to reporters wearing a red cap reading “Trump was right about everything”, did not appear to have the tan-coloured substance applied to his left hand.

The 79-year-old has been pictured with make-up on his hands several times, which the White House has blamed on the president’s rigorous handshakes.
