Mysterious marks were visible on one of former US president Donald Trump’s hands on Wednesday as he left his New York residence to attend a nearby trial.

Multiple photos show Trump waving to the press as he left Trump Tower Wednesday morning with small red dots.

It’s not clear what the cause of the odd splotches could be. A spokesperson for the former president’s campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Trump did not appear to have the dots on his hand on Tuesday evening, based on photos of his campaign stop in Atkinson, New Hampshire. Nor were they visible on Monday while Trump was in Iowa for the caucus vote.

Later on Wednesday, US District Judge Lewis Kaplan admonished Trump for his conduct during columnist E. Jean Carroll’s second trial.

The trial is over the former president’s remarks about Carroll’s claim that he raped her in a Manhattan department store in the 1990s.
