if you zoom in on the photo, you'll notice that Trump's hand appears bandaged and covered by makeup:

My guess why the sticky part is mostly removed: His skin will come off with the bandage.
Goodnight Loon,,,

I have a very low platelet count, it takes a hot minute for my blood to clot after a stick. Still, I can remove the bandage in 15-20 minutes and it is fine.
Now you see trump, double bandaged with not only tabs the cut off, but under the makeup. IMO it makes it look more visible.

It can require regular MRIs and monitoring because it can cause brain bleeds and other complications.
