RT reports that on April 4 local time, U.S. President Trump remained inside the White House and did not publicly appear for media interviews. Video circulating online shows that at 1:50 p.m. local time on the afternoon of April 4, a Marine Corps sentry was still standing at the entrance to the West Wing, indicating that Trump was inside conducting official duties.
The text from RT does not qualify as genuine news or verified information. It seems more like a denial—or perhaps an implication. What exactly is it implying?
Just now, I saw another post from RT: On April 4 local time, former U.S. Senator Walker Mitchell posted on social media platform X, claiming that recent posts by President Trump on social media were posted by someone else, directly stating, “Trump’s health condition is deeply concerning.”
“He is currently at Walter Reed Medical Center, possibly only minutes away from passing. Perhaps everything has already ended. After Trump’s death, the government might not officially announce it for several days—or even weeks. During this period, Stephen Miller, the Homeland Security Advisor, will effectively act as a shadow president.”
At present, this claim has not been further verified.
When these two posts are considered together, their intended meaning becomes largely clear.
However, such a critical message must be confirmed by official sources and authoritative verification; otherwise, it constitutes false information—or, in other words, a rumor. Spreading such unverified claims carries serious responsibility.
To date, this story has not received further confirmation. Therefore, it can be reasonably concluded that it is a fabricated piece of misinformation.
