We are sure you have seen them by now. President Trump hasn’t been consistently in front of the camera as of late. When coupled with signs of aging, social media conspiracy theorists wondered if the Commander-in-Chief is actually the Commander-in-Casket. Returning to the podium to announce the relocation of the US Space Command headquarters and discuss the further deployment of the National Guard, Trump addressed the rumors of his demise.
When asked if he was aware of the rumors that he died, Trump replied, “No, really? I didn’t see that.” Trump confirmed that he saw reports about being sick but not dead.
“I knew they were saying, like, ‘Is he okay? How’s he feeling?’ … I had heard that, but I didn’t hear that to that extent.”
He wrapped it all up as “fake news.”
