Overview

  • Responding to a reporter, the president called the online claims "fake news," said he was "very active" over Labor Day, and noted he had not seen reports declaring him dead.
  • In the same appearance, he announced the relocation of U.S. Space Command headquarters from Colorado to Huntsville, Alabama.
  • Press-pool sightings and photos over the weekend documented trips to Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Virginia, countering speculation about his whereabouts.
  • On Sunday, he posted on Truth Social, "NEVER FELT BETTER IN MY LIFE," as hashtags like "Trump is dead" trended on X during the holiday weekend.
  • The White House in July disclosed a diagnosis of chronic venous insufficiency with normal echocardiogram and blood counts, and the physician attributed hand bruising to frequent handshaking and aspirin use; Vice President J.D. Vance said he is prepared for emergencies but described the president as in incredibly good health.
