The fake news media hit a new low over Labor Day weekend when wild rumors spread claiming President Trump was dead. Social media exploded with over 1.3 million interactions pushing this completely false story. All because our hardworking president took a couple days out of the public eye during a holiday weekend.
Leave it to Fox News reporter Peter Doocy to ask Trump directly about the death hoax during a press conference. Trump’s response was absolutely perfect and had everyone laughing. He calmly dismissed the ridiculous rumors while exposing the media’s massive double standard.
Trump pointed out something every American already knows. He had done multiple successful press conferences just days before taking a short break. Meanwhile, Joe Biden used to disappear for months at a time and the media never questioned his health or whereabouts.
The 79-year-old president looked sharp and energetic as he swatted down these fake stories. He said he felt great and was staying active, which was obvious to anyone watching. This is what real leadership looks like when facing dishonest attacks.
This whole episode shows how desperate Trump’s enemies have become. They cannot beat him on policy or results, so they resort to spreading death rumors on social media. It is pathetic and un-American behavior from people who claim to defend democracy.
The contrast with Biden could not be clearer. When Biden was barely coherent and hiding in his basement, the media covered for him. When Trump takes a normal weekend break, they spread conspiracy theories about his death.
Americans see right through these lies and cheap tricks. Trump handled the situation with his usual humor and strength, turning fake news into a laughing matter. This is exactly why voters trust him to fight the swamp and defend our country.
The mainstream media keeps proving they are the enemy of truth and the American people. Every phony story like this just makes Trump stronger and shows why we need real conservative leadership in Washington.
