President Donald Trump said he didn’t know about conspiracy theories circulating on the internet over the weekend about him being dead, APA reports quoting CNN.
“No, I’ve been very active actually, over the weekend, I didn’t hear that one that’s pretty serious,” Trump said Tuesday — his first time publicly addressing reporters in a week.
Trump said he’d heard about general concerns about his well-being, but not about the speculation he’d died. “I knew they were saying, like, ‘Is he okay? How’s he feeling? What’s wrong?’”
Trump said he’d been active over the long Labor Day weekend, during which he went to his Virginia golf course each day, and noted he also did an interview on Friday with the Daily Caller.
“It’s also sort of a longer weekend, you know, it’s Labor Day weekend. I would say a lot of people know I was very active this Labor Day. I had heard that, but I didn’t hear to that extent,” Trump said.
He also touted his lengthy public appearances last week, including a Cabinet meeting that lasted more than three hours.
“Last week, I did numerous news conferences, all successful. They went very well, like this is going very well. And then I didn’t do any for two days, and they said, ‘There must be something wrong with him.’ Biden wouldn’t do them for months,” Trump said.
