Donald Trump skips three Easter events as health fears explode after Iran rant | World | News
US President Donald Trump’s decision to skip three Easter Sunday services today, instead touring Washington DC, has sparked further speculation about his health.
The 79-year-old, who chanted a strange ‘Praise be to God’ chant on one of the most important days of the year in the Christian calendar, instead took a ‘ceremonially slow’ lap around Memorial Circle.
