After not appearing in public for the last three days amid rumors of 'health issues,' U.S. President Donald Trump made a strong appearance on the 30th (local time).
According to CNN and others, President Trump was spotted this morning at Trump National Golf Club in Virginia with his granddaughter Kai and his grandson Spencer. Wearing a red MAGA (Make America Great Again) hat and a black jacket, President Trump returned to the White House in the afternoon.
President Trump did not conduct any public schedule from the 27th to the 29th after chairing a cabinet meeting at the White House on the 26th. The White House announced that President Trump does not have any public events scheduled until Labor Day in the U.S. on September 1.
Even while not appearing in front of cameras, President Trump continued his social media activity and signed executive orders. However, according to CNN's tally, it was noted that it was unusual for President Trump to not appear for three days, as he usually maintains a busy schedule with 26 public events this month alone.
Various speculations arose online. According to Forbes, 'Trump,' 'Is Trump dead?' and 'Trump death' were among the top searches on Google at noon that day.
In particular, J.D. Vance, who is first in line for succession in the event of the president's absence, fueled the health rumors when he said in a USA Today interview released on the 28th that President Trump is healthy but is prepared to assume the presidency in case of an emergency.
