Trump Shares QAnon Conspiracy With Fake AI Video

A bizarre post from the former U.S. president, lending credibility to a QAnon conspiracy theory, raised eyebrows before being deleted 12 hours later.

Over the weekend, Donald Trump shared an AI-generated video on Truth Social in which an AI version of himself appears to announce that every American would receive a «MedBed card» and that «MedBed hospitals» would be created, echoing a strange conspiracy theory tied to Qanon.

The video is staged as a phony Fox News–style segment, featuring the president’s daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, herself AI-generated, appearing as a fake news anchor to announce the supposed launch of the «MedBed» program.

It then shifts to an AI-generated version of Donald Trump, delivering a fabricated address in which he declares that every American will receive a «MedBed card» and that «MedBed hospitals» will be created. In the video, the fake Trump declares that: «These facilities are safe, modern, and designed to restore every citizen to full health and strength.»

The «MedBed» conspiracy theory, widely circulated in QAnon circles, claims that hidden futuristic machines exist with the power to cure all illnesses, regenerate organs, and even reverse aging.

Believers insist that these miraculous beds have been kept secret by shadowy elites and will be unveiled during a so-called «Great Awakening,» often tied to Donald Trump. Supporters of the theory see MedBeds as evidence of advanced technology deliberately hidden from the public, with the potential to transform humanity.

After roughly twelve hours online, the video was taken down from Trump’s Truth Social account. No explanation was provided for its removal, but the brief window was long enough for the clip to circulate widely, drawing media scrutiny and fueling debate. The deletion has only added to the controversy, with some observers interpreting it as a tacit acknowledgment of the video’s inaccuracy, while others see it as part of a broader pattern in which Trump shares inflammatory or misleading content, lets it dominate the conversation, and then quietly erases it once the damage is done.

Experts, however, emphasize that no such «MedBed» devices exist. Critics warn that Trump’s promotion of the narrative is especially dangerous, as some believers postpone or even reject real medical care while waiting for this fictional technology.

The bizarre MedBed video surfaced at a politically fraught moment. While Trump briefly amplified a QAnon-linked fantasy of miracle hospitals, his administration is simultaneously moving to slash funding for Medicaid and roll back key provisions of the Affordable Care Act in its latest budget plan, measures that could curtail real access to healthcare for millions.

The odd MedBed video arrives against a backdrop of escalating health controversies around Trump’s administration. In a recent White House briefing, Trump asserted that acetaminophen (Tylenol) use during pregnancy could be linked to autism, claims widely rebuked by medical professionals who say no causal connection has been demonstrated.

Between pushing a fabricated AI vision of universal healing and advancing scientifically dubious health claims, the contrast between fantasy and the real stakes of public medical policy couldn’t be sharper.
