All about ‘Trump is dead’ rumours
The explanation follows social media rumors that Trump has passed away, which became so widespread that the hashtags “#TrumpIsDead” and “WhereIsTrump” started trending online.
Trump absence after a three-hour White House cabinet meeting on Tuesday fueled the rumor.
Meanwhile, several people claimed that the White House flag was reportedly flying at half-staff. However, this was later connected to a shooting at a Minneapolis school that claimed the lives of two kids. Before killing himself, the gunman wounded ten more people.
Trump's health and a bruise on his hand
The speculations came after an extensively shared photo showed Trump's hand with a bruise and another that appeared to show a layer of makeup covering it. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt later clarified that it is not a medical condition and that Trump developed it following repeated handshakes.
The White House announced in July that Trump had recently been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency, which is a non-life-threatening illness that may result in swelling in the legs.
