President Donald Trump was spotted heading to golf with his granddaughter Trump following bogus conspiracy theories about his health.

The Republican, 79, was seen on the south lawn of the White House getting into a vehicle with granddaughter Kai at about 8.45am on Saturday.

Trump sported his go-to golf outfit for the trip in Virginia – black pants, a white polo shirt and his signature red MAGA hat.

His public appearance follows baseless internet rumors suggesting Trump was either unwell or had passed away, with the hashtag ‘#whereistrump’ gaining traction online on Friday.

These rumors emerged after some White House journalists pointed out that the president hadn’t made a public appearance since a lengthy cabinet meeting on Tuesday, and he didn’t have any scheduled events over the weekend.

Speculation intensified when Vice President JD Vance mentioned to USA Today that he was prepared to take over for Trump in case of a ‘terrible tragedy.’

The rumors were further fueled by conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, who urged people to pray for Trump, falsely claiming the president was experiencing a ‘health crisis’ and seemed on the verge of ‘collapse.’

The sighting occurred amid wild health-related rumors about the Republican. Trump wore his typical golf attire, consisting of black pants, a white polo shirt, and his iconic red MAGA hat.

The rumors began circulating after White House reporters noted the president hadn’t been seen since a cabinet meeting on Tuesday, as depicted.

But the rumors were quashed by Axios journalist Barak Ravid who revealed a US official had confirmed the president is in good health.

‘Trump is OK. Will play Golf this morning,’ Ravid wrote on X shortly before images emerged of the president and his granddaughter. 

Earlier this week Trump sat down for a mammoth cabinet meeting ahead of Labor Day to, ‘celebrate the victories American workers have experienced over the past eight months’, per the White House.

On Wednesday, he had a meeting with his son-in-law Jared Kushner, former British prime minister Tony Blair and Israeli official Ron Dermer to discuss a post-war plan for Gaza. 

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt revealed in July that the president was suffering from ‘chronic venous insufficiency,’ that was causing ‘mild swelling’ in his lower legs.

The president’s physician revealed in an memo that his condition was, ‘a benign and common condition’ in elderly people, but that there was no evidence of any serious arterial disease.

People with the condition often are advised to lose weight, walk for exercise and elevate their legs periodically, and some may be advised to wear compression stockings. Severe cases over time can lead to complications including lower leg sores called ulcers. Blood clots are one cause, but was ruled out, Leavitt said.

Leavitt said the condition wasn’t causing the president any discomfort. She wouldn’t discuss how he was treating the condition and suggested those details would be in the doctor’s letter, which was later released to the public.

The White House disclosed in July that President Donald Trump was checked out by his doctor after noticeable ‘swelling’ on his hands and legs

 But the letter was the same as what she read, and it did not include any additional details.

Trump also sparked concern after bruising was spotted on the back of his hand, however his physician revealed that it was a result of ‘irritation from frequent handshaking and use of aspirin ‘as part of a standard cardiovascular prevention’ treatment.

Despite the conspiracy theories surrounding his health, Trump’s Truth Social account was active on Friday when he issued a statement about tariffs after a federal appeals court ruled Friday that President Trump had no legal right to impose sweeping tariffs

The post said: ‘ALL TARIFFS ARE STILL IN EFFECT! Today a Highly Partisan Appeals Court incorrectly said that our Tariffs should be removed, but they know the United States of America will win in the end. If these Tariffs ever went away, it would be a total disaster for the Country. It would make us financially weak, and we have to be strong. 

‘The U.S.A. will no longer tolerate enormous Trade Deficits and unfair Tariffs and Non Tariff Trade Barriers imposed by other Countries, friend or foe, that undermine our Manufacturers, Farmers, and everyone else.’

Daily Mail has approached the White House for comment.
