At least one popular liberal influencer suggested that the new photos showing Trump “alive and well” were actually from 2023.
Donald Trump has been criticized for not being as visible lately, some say due to the large bruising he is suffering on his hands and swelling in his ankles, leading a #Trumpdead hashtag to trend on the popular right-wing hot spot X.
After the rumors spread online, the conservative New York Post over the weekend published a story called, “President Trump is alive and well after bizarre, false online speculation suggested he died,” in which the outlet published new photos of the president.
But the new pictures didn’t impress everyone, with critics noting his diminished appearance in the photos.
Ron Filipkowski said, “He may be alive, but he’s definitely not well,” in reference to the Post’s new pictures.
Conservative attorney George Conway on Saturday joked, “Has anyone checked in on President Vance,” to which political scientist Norman Ornstein responded, “George come on, the president is [Project 2025 architect] Russell Vought!”
Conservative Reed Galen asked, “Where’s Donald?”
Conservative analyst Brigitte Gabriel hit back against some of the comments on Saturday, saying, “It’s sickening to see so many leftists on social media spreading false rumors about President Trump and his health.”
“The Democrats have no class,” said Gabriel, who previously speculated about Joe Biden’s death when Biden was still the U.S. president. The comment section on Gabriel’s post was flooded with reminders of her asking if Biden was secretly deceased.
At least one popular liberal influencer suggested that the new photos showing Trump “alive and well” were actually from 2023.
