Social media has been alight with rumours today, August 30, that President Donald Trump is dead, after he hasn't been seen in public for three days. There has been widespread speculation over the 79-year-old president's health for months, and he has been frequently spotted with bruising on one hand. And social media sleuths are now using a strange form of data to determine whether anything monumental has occurred in the Pentagon- the number of pizzas ordered.
The 'Pentagon Pizza Index' is a theory that states that pizza restaurants surrounding the Pentagon- the headquarters building of the United States Department of Defence- see a huge spike in orders just before any major events. Its last notable spike occurred just before Israel bombed Iran in June, according to the Guardian.
