Trump is rumored to be seriously ill, with reports claiming "he may have only minutes left to live." The White House responds: "Trump has been working continuously."

Local time on April 4, a report about President Trump being critically ill and hospitalized quickly sparked online discussion.

Former U.S. senator Walker Mitt posted on the social media platform X, stating that the posts by U.S. President Trump on social media recently were written and published by someone else, and directly pointing out that “Trump’s health condition is concerning.” “He is now at Walter Reed Medical Center, and he may be only a few minutes from dying.”

White House communications director Steven Zhang posted to refute the rumors: During this Easter weekend, President Trump has been working nonstop at the White House and in the Oval Office.

The White House also, through its official account “Quick Response 47,” responded to online speculation: When a U.S. president goes 12 consecutive hours without accepting interviews from the media, those deranged liberal figures begin fabricating absurd conspiracy theories. (And when Biden often goes 12 consecutive days without accepting media interviews, they say nothing at all.)

However, according to the latest news from CCTV, local time on April 5, Trump was still accepting an interview and said that if Iran fails to open the Strait of Hormuz by the evening of April 7, the U.S. will list Iran’s power plants as targets of strikes.

Subsequently, Trump made a brief post on social media, saying: “8:00 p.m. Tuesday (April 7) (Eastern Time)!” Public opinion believes this seems to mean that Trump has again extended the so-called “final deadline” he set for Iran.

On March 26, Trump announced that he would postpone the “destruction” operation against Iran’s energy facilities by 10 days, extending the deadline to 8:00 p.m. on April 6 Eastern Time. This is already the second time he has postponed this deadline.
