During her guest-hosting stint on "Jimmy Kimmel Live," comedian Tiffany Haddish offered a new theory regarding former President Donald Trump's bruised hands.

Haddish connected the appearance of Trump's hands to Team USA's recent 4-1 defeat against Belgium in the World Cup, an event that followed Trump's intervention with FIFA.

Haddish's comments came after Trump publicly admitted to contacting FIFA President Gianni Infantino to reverse a red card suspension for Team USA star Folarin Balogun.

Balogun had been sidelined for the round-of-16 match against Belgium after receiving a red card in a previous game.

FIFA's decision to overturn the ban after Trump's call sparked accusations of political interference.

Despite the intervention, Team USA suffered a significant loss.

The Belgian players reportedly mocked Trump by imitating his signature dance after scoring the winning goal, and the Belgian social media team posted a photo of striker Romelu Lukaku celebrating with the caption: “Overturn this.” This development is notable as it highlights public and media reactions to Trump's involvement in sports, particularly when outcomes do not align with his favored side.

The phrase "Trump Curse" subsequently gained traction online.

Progressive outlet MeidasTouch compiled a list of sports events where teams favored by Trump reportedly lost.

These instances include the Kansas City Chiefs' Super Bowl loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, the Washington Commanders' defeat to the Detroit Lions, Miami's loss in the College Football National Championship, the New York Knicks' playoff streak ending in the NBA Finals, and the U.S.

team's loss to Europe in the Ryder Cup.

Separately, the appearance of Trump's hands, described as swollen and heavily covered in makeup, has been a recurring subject of public speculation regarding his health, particularly during his recent appearance at the NATO summit in Turkey.
