Although the idea of a world leader suffering such an embarrassing moment on camera may seem amusing to some, there is no evidence that it actually happened.
White House spokesman Steven Cheung addressed the rumours directly, stating that the claims circulating online were simply “not true”.
Fact-checking outlet Snopes examined the footage and reported that the video itself was “authentic and showed no signs of digital manipulation or content generated by artificial intelligence”.
However, Snopes also made clear that “there was no evidence to support the claim that Trump pooped himself during the meeting”.
In short, while the internet may have enjoyed the speculation, there is nothing to substantiate it. Mystery resolved.
