<p>Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy got a strange look from President Donald Trump — and a chuckle from Vice President JD Vance — when he asked the president point blank about the rumors of his death that had circulated over the weekend.</p>
<p>During an Oval Office event on Tuesday afternoon, Doocy pressed Trump to reveal when and how he&#8217;d come to find out that he&#8217;d died over the weekend.</p>
<p><strong>WATCH:</strong></p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">President Trump just SLAMMED his critics who wished him dead after not having a news conference for TWO DAYS!</p>
<p>&#8220;I didn&#8217;t do any for two days, and they said there must be something wrong with him.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Biden wouldn&#8217;t do &#8217;em for MONTHS! You wouldn&#8217;t see him! And nobody ever said… <a href="https://t.co/W5X7aRsuuY">pic.twitter.com/W5X7aRsuuY</a></p>
<p>— Townhall.com (@townhallcom) <a href="https://twitter.com/townhallcom/status/1962955369241526579?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 2, 2025</a></p></blockquote>
<p>&#8220;How did you find out over the weekend that you were dead?&#8221; Doocy asked, prompting a quick sideways glance from the president, but no other change in his expression. Vance, standing behind Trump and to his left, was clearly amused by the question.</p>
<p>&#8220;Did you see that?&#8221; Doocy pressed on as Trump said he hadn&#8217;t. &#8220;People didn&#8217;t see you for a couple of days, 1.3 million user engagements as of Saturday morning about your demise.&#8221;</p>
<p>Vance shook his head, still smiling, and only then did Trump&#8217;s eyebrows raise: &#8220;Really? I didn&#8217;t see that. You know, I have heard — it&#8217;s sort of crazy, but last week I did numerous news conferences, all successful, they went very well like this is going very well. And then I didn&#8217;t do any for two days and they said, &#8216;There must be something wrong with him.'&#8221;</p>
<p>Trump then pivoted to compare his busy schedule to that of his predecessor, former President Joe Biden, who routinely went weeks without speaking directly to the press.</p>
<p>&#8220;Biden didn&#8217;t do &#8217;em for MONTHS!&#8221; he exclaimed, prompting laughs around the room as he continued, &#8220;You wouldn&#8217;t see him! And nobody ever said there was ever anything wrong with him! And we know he wasn&#8217;t in the greatest of shape.&#8221;</p>
