The Donald Trump health debate took a strange new turn this week after mysterious bags were tossed out of a White House window. The incident came amid mounting online discussion about his condition — ahead of a scheduled “announcement” from the Oval Office. Many social media users — previously convinced that the POTUS had died — now fear he is undergoing extensive medical treatment. Unverified reports have also suggested that the White House is presently under a “lockdown” while others claimed that Melania Trump had just visited Walter Reed hospital.
Bag tossed out of White House window
Videos of the incident have since gone viral and show a dark bag being thrown from a second-storey White House window. Unverified social media posts claimed that it had been tossed out from the vicinity of the Lincoln bedroom. No official statement has been made by the Trump administration or the Secret Service about the bizarre moment.
“Nothing to see here. Just black bags being tossed out of a second-story window at the White House…” jibed one X user.
“Person appears to be dressed in a hazmat suit,” claimed one comment.
“Why is someone throwing objects out the damn window at the White House? This makes zero sense under any normal circumstances. The media needs to get answers, even if just from a security perspective. What the hell is the Secret Service doing?” fumed a third.
“After 9/11 they made the windows on the White House are bullet proof., You have to literally remove the panes in order to throw whatever it is out the window they were throwing out the window. Not only that…the President wouldn’t be there if this was happening,” pointed out one user.
Multiple reports indicate that White House windows (especially in a sensitive area) use thick, sealed bulletproof panes that are simply not designed to open like typical residential windows. In most cases, throwing something out of a White House window would require professional aid to uninstall the entire pane.
White House under lockdown?
Several users also shared videos claiming that the White House was “completely blocked off” — in an unprecedented manner — on Monday without anyone divulging an explanation. Others noted the iconic building had paused tours for the entire month of September due to extensive construction on a new 90,000-square-foot ballroom. Meanwhile, many users also claimed (although this could not be verified) that “all roads to Walter Reed hospital” — the primary care center for the US President — had been shut down.
“White House is in total lockdown. Earlier someone was throwing statues out the window of the Lincoln Bedroom. Plus Marine One left the WH lawn earlier, bound for Walter Reed hospital. Damn, don’t be surprised if we see “orange smoke” coming from one of the chimneys next!” claimed one X user.
Rumours about the ill health of President Trump also intensified on Tuesday after some claimed that Melania was spotted at Walter Reed Medical Centre. A Threads user said they had encountered the First Lady while being monitored in the Labor and Delivery department after she appeared for an “unscheduled tour” of the area. The post said even the staff had seemed confused by her abrupt appearance in the department. The post has since gone viral — serving to amplify claims that Donald Trump was rather unwell.
