President Donald Trump, who has always shied away from taking accountability in critical matters, is attaching his name to spreading a conspiracy theory, yet again. The move isn’t surprising, as time and again, he has proved that he does not walk in the same direction as reason.
On September 27, 2025, Donald Trump allegedly posted and then deleted an AI-generated video of him promoting medbeds on the social media platform, Truth Social. For those who quickly saw the post, it is believed that in the video, Trump claimed medbeds to be a part of America’s new “healthcare system.” Additionally, he also supposedly remarked about the issuance of “medbed cards” for citizens. He added that the step would allow Americans to access hospitals “led by the top doctors.” “Equipped with the most advanced technology in the world”, he also promised that the facilities offered by these centres were “safe”, “modern” and are “designed to restore every citizen to full health and strength.”
The video did not just feature him, but also his daughter-in-law Lara Trump. She was designed to resemble a Fox News journalist/host who introduced Trump’s upcoming announcement about medbeds and said:
“Breaking. Now, President Donald J. Trump has announced a historic new health care system. The launch of America’s first med bed hospitals, and a national Med bed card for every citizen.”
For long, the concept of medbeds has been part of an ongoing conspiracy theory. It is primarily heralded by splinter groups that were or are part of the QAnon conspiracy theory group. Today, the number of people who believe in and support the conspiracy theory around medbeds has grown manifold. Among individuals and groups who believe in the power of the medbeds to cure all ailments are mainly Republicans, including Trump, both not very surprising.
