Trump Deletes AI-Generated Video Promoting Debunked 'Medbed' Claim

The QAnon‑rooted myth highlights growing worries over deepfake propaganda in presidential messaging.

Overview

  • The late‑Saturday Truth Social post showed AI renderings of Lara Trump and the president promising every American a “medbed card” before it was removed hours later.
  • Fox News said the segment depicted in the clip never aired on any of its platforms.
  • The White House has offered no explanation for the posting or deletion, and archived copies of the video continue to circulate online.
  • Doctors, journalists and watchdogs criticized the share for amplifying a conspiracy theory that researchers and media describe as fictitious and unsupported by medical evidence.
  • Commercial tie‑ins persist, with a medbed vendor previously warned by the FDA over false medical claims and websites marketing pricey “Trump MedBed” cards as memorabilia.
