‘Trump Is Dead’ Social Media EXPLODES With Rumours As POTUS Trump Disappears From Spotlight

Rumors of U.S. President Donald Trump’s death flooded social media after his sudden absence from public view, sending “Trump dead” and “Is Trump dead?” to the top of Google’s search trends. The president was last seen on August 24 at his Virginia golf club with former MLB pitcher Roger Clemens and later chaired a televised cabinet meeting on August 26. Since then, he has skipped all public appearances, sparking speculation about his health. Concern deepened after photos of Trump’s bruised hand and swollen ankles circulated online, fueling questions about his fitness. The White House previously disclosed he suffers from chronic venous insufficiency, a condition tied to age and circulation. Meanwhile, Vice President JD Vance intensified chatter by stating he is “ready to take over” if tragedy strikes. While Trump remains active on Truth Social, his absence from events keeps conspiracy theories alive. #TrumpDead #DonaldTrump #TrumpRumors #TrumpHealth #USPresident #WhiteHouse #BreakingNews #TrumpMissing #TrumpUpdate #TrumpBruise #TruthSocial #TrumpWatch #TrumpConspiracy #TrumpTrending #TrumpCVI #JDVance #TrumpBruising #TrumpSwelling #TrumpWhereabouts #TrumpNews ~HT.410~ED.103~
