Trump launches deluge of conspiracy theories with mere schedule change

President Donald Trump announced on Friday that he would not be attending his first son's wedding to Palm Beach socialite Bettina Anderson on an island in the Bahamas. Writing on Truth Social Trump said, “While I very much wanted to be with my son, Don Jr., and the newest member of the Trump Family, his soon to be wife, Bettina, circumstances pertaining to Government, and my love for the United States of America, do not allow me to do so.”But the elderly Trump had previously announced he would "try" to attend his son's second wedding, which kicked off a spate of mockery from online critics , who said they would be eagerly awaiting photos and videos of the president being "busy" over the weekend, golfing at his Bedminster club in New Jersey."Look weird if he misses his son's wedding day and then shows up at Bedminster for the weekend," said one heckler. Trump said he would remain in Washington over the long weekend, which the president traditionally spends attending events honoring service members who fought and died for the United States. Trump was scheduled to speak in New York for Rep. Mike Lawler (R), a top target for Democrats who believe they can win a race against him in November. Trump was then headed to New Jersey, but changed plans. The weather isn't great for the "Garden State," however, with rain predicted off and on all weekend. The conspiracy theories swirled. "A deal or [military] strikes coming soon…" suggested Ari Ingel, executive director of the Creative Community for Peace. One individual agreed with the likelihood, "Would be very Trump-like. Strike over the 3 day weekend then say it’s over by market open on Monday evening.""Time to bomb Iran to distract from… Epstein, ditching his kids wedding, slush fund, stock trades, gas prices… the list goes on," another added. If it is Iran-related, one observer was curious if it was to play the prediction markets. "Probably more insider trading...had to make it look like he wasn't going to go to lower Polymarket odds, so he and his family could make more millions on him making a surprise appearance," the conspirator said. Some wondered if perhaps the president was "too weak" to play golf in New Jersey over the weekend. Even an Iranian account, "The Hormuz Letter" took note, writing: "BREAKING: Trump has just cancelled his Trump National Golf Club trip this weekend and officially cancelled attending his son's wedding, citing 'circumstances pertaining to Government' and an 'important period of time,' choosing to remain at the White House for the entire three-day weekend. Tulsi Gabbard has also resigned as Director of National Intelligence.""Doesn't mean much. He started this dumb war while golfing and hosting a party in Mar-A-Lago. But yes, he needs a distraction and will likely attack Iran again while Congress is out of town for the holiday," replied a video technologist.
