President Donald Trump has responded after baseless rumors that he had died went viral on social media over the weekend.
"NEVER FELT BETTER IN MY LIFE," the president wrote in a post on Truth Social on Sunday night that linked to a post from a MAGA influencer that claimed the "media freaks out" if he disappears for 24 hours.
The false rumors circulated on social media over Labor Day weekend, with some reports saying he had not been seen in public for several days. However, he was pictured heading to his golf course in Virginia on Saturday.
According to Grok, X's AI-powered chatbot, posts speculating about Trump's possible demise had acquired over 1.3 million user engagements as of Saturday morning.
