Donald Trump Shares AI-Generated Clip Claiming MedBed Hospital Announcement
Former President Donald Trump sparked confusion on social media by sharing a bizarre clip purportedly announcing the establishment of a MedBed hospital and a corresponding national MedBed card system, both non-existent entities. The video, which he later removed, features a Fox News segment where Lara Trump discusses these claims, reports 24brussels.
Posted on Saturday night, the clip appears to be entirely AI-generated, depicting Trump speaking from the Oval Office with no accompanying context or explanation. Skeptics noted that the president’s ability to remain on script was a telling indication of the video’s artificial nature.
MedBeds, often discussed in conspiracy circles, are fanciful devices claimed to have the capability to treat various ailments, including asthma and cancer, by conspiracy theorists who argue they are being kept from the public by pharmaceutical companies.
While many of Trump’s followers recognized the video as AI-generated, they seemed to still accept it as confirmation of MedBeds’ existence. The incident adds to the list of dubious content shared by the former president, who frequently disseminates information without follow-up clarification. With the video’s removal, the White House is expected to downplay the event and attempt to move on from the confusion it sparked.
