Donald Trump has made his first appearance following widespread rumors circulating about his death. The speculation about the US President’s alleged passing gained significant traction on social media earlier today due to his absence from public view for three days and the absence of scheduled weekend events, which is not unusual for a president. Despite his lack of public appearances, Trump was active on Truth Social as recently as yesterday.
New images have surfaced showing Trump this morning with his granddaughter Kai Trump on the south lawn of the White House. Later today, they are expected to travel to the Trump National golf course in Sterling, Virginia, as reported by AFP.
The authenticity of these images was confirmed by Journalist Barak Ravid, who cited a ‘US official’ saying, “Trump is OK. Will play Golf this morning.” Ravid, an Israeli journalist working as an analyst for CNN and contributing to Axios and Channel 12, shared this update.
While Trump had been out of sight earlier this week, sparking rumors of his demise, the phrase “Trump is dead” began trending on various platforms like Facebook. The false rumors emerged after photos showed what seemed to be a bruise on his right hand.
Concerns about Trump’s health were raised when a bruise was observed on his hand while signing an executive order earlier in the week. Subsequent sightings showed similar bruising, with speculation suggesting it could be related to recent IV therapy for an undisclosed medical condition.
Vice President JD Vance’s remarks further fueled speculation. In an interview with USA Today on August 27, Vance acknowledged Trump’s good health but did not rule out the possibility of unforeseen events necessitating his succession.
