This morning, unfounded rumors about the poor health of US President Donald Trump began to spread on the X platform, with users even claiming that he had died, all sparked by a statement by US Vice President JD Vance.
The hashtags #Trumpisdead and #Trumpdead, which translate to “Trump is dead”, are popular on the X platform, and the topic “Where is Donald Trump” is trending at the top of X.
These rumors were sparked by a statement by Vice President Vance, who, in response to a journalist’s question, said that he was “ready to lead the country if, God forbid, something terrible happens to President Trump”. In addition, Trump has not appeared in public since Wednesday, he was previously photographed with a bruise on his arm, and the White House flag was lowered to the field of spears.
However, these are just unfounded rumors, especially considering that the flag at the White House was lowered as a sign of respect for the victims of the Minneapolis school shooting, and that the White House explained the diagnosis that caused Trump’s bruise.
In addition, even Vance said that Trump is “in good shape”, but that did not stop X users from discussing Trump’s death all morning.
