also, I'm confused with his hat. After four years he still hasn't made America great again in his mind. I call that failing to do the job.

Everyone noted them at his appearances after he left Walter Reed. He doesn't want any more attention drawn to his hands, and mildly chilly temperatures provides an excuse.

..one of them and wow wtf is he talking about. Hes a washed up Vegas Lounge act! The one where only the friends and relatives come to see your shtick. The crowd is so low energy. Checked out Pence's speech and I could have fit the crowd in my house..unless there was more than what the camera showed but i think we saw all there were.

He's wearing the gloves to cover the bruising etc from IVs and/or blood draws.

He's getting medical assistance to get him through these 14 rallies in 3 days.

Just my guess, anyway.
