Auggie
(31,172 posts)Today he looked and acted relatively normal compared to yesterday. Of course, I mean is normal for Trump, not normal for most people.
Whatever was going on yesterday has somehow been dealt with, perhaps with medication.

Then looked up what causes puffy, dark eyes:
Swelling around the eyes is caused by an excessive accumulation of fluids (edema) in the surrounding skin tissue. Because the skin around the eyes is very thin, swelling and discoloration can be quite prominent.
But why does fluid accumulate to form puffy eyes in the first place?
Puffy eyes generally result from a variety of factors, including:
Overconsumption of salt, which causes fluid retention
Allergies that can cause inflammation and swelling
Sinus problems
Dehydration
Fatigue and lack of sleep
Stress
Crying
Aging
Inherited facial features
Unfortunately, many people have puffy eyes simply because this trait runs in their family.
With aging, eye puffiness can be caused in part when fatty tissue that ordinarily protects the eye inside the bony eye socket begins to push forward and fill in spaces below the eye.
This happens because aging processes cause thinning of the membrane or "septum" that ordinarily holds back fat in both the upper and lower eyelids. As the membrane thins, the fat herniates and pushes forward, causing puffy eyes and dark circles and bags under the eyes.
