Original review summary

The review says the White House denied the hospitalization claim, with spokesperson Steven Cheung saying Trump had been working in the White House and Oval Office. It reports that a routine “press lid” on April 4, 2026, and reused footage contributed to the rumor, but found no verified confirmation of a hospital visit.[S1]
