Ahead of the much-awaited White House correspondents dinner on Saturday, April 25, a rumor went viral on social media that President Donald Trump was rushed to the hospital amid a medical emergency.
The rumor originated on the YouTube channel of MediasTouch, which reported that Trump was rushed to the Walter Reid hospital as he allegedly fell ill after arriving at the White House from Pal Beach, Florida, earlier on Saturday. However, no credible reports suggest that Trump was rushed to a hospital today.
He was photographed fit and healthy as he boarded Air Force One from the Pam Beach International Airport to arrive at Joint Base Andrews. As of now, no one from the White House press pool reported a health emergency surrounding Trump.
Here’s the MediasTouch YouTube video from where the claim originated.
The White House correspondent’s dinner starts at 8pm ET, with the red carpet kicking off at 6pm ET.
