In a bizarre late-night posting spree that included AI-generated propaganda, conspiracy memes, and a swipe at Robert De Niro, Donald Trump crossed a line that even some of his own supporters couldn’t stomach. Th president shared a doctored video—complete with an AI-generated version of himself—peddling a fake alien healing product straight out of a QAnon fever dream.
The video, posted Saturday to his Truth Social platform, appeared as a faux Fox News report, opening with a synthetic likeness of Lara Trump announcing a sweeping new health care initiative led by none other than Trump himself.
“A historic new health care system, the launch of America’s first medbed hospitals, and a national medbed card for every citizen,” AI Lara Trump declares, echoing conspiracy buzzwords that have long circulated among QAnon circles.
The camera then cuts to AI Trump seated in the Oval Office, delivering a robotic pitch in an oddly polished voice that doesn’t even come close to mimicking the real Trump’s cadence.
“Every American will soon receive their own medbed card,” the AI figure states. “With it, you’ll have guaranteed access to our new hospitals led by the top doctors in the nation, equipped with the most advanced technology in the world. These facilities are safe, modern, and designed to restore every citizen to full health and strength.”
The video triggered an immediate firestorm online, with critics, journalists, and even MAGA allies openly mocking the surreal propaganda piece. The backlash was swift and merciless—by Sunday, the post had quietly vanished from Trump’s feed without a word.
Bulwark reporter Will Sommer summed up what many were thinking: “Truth insane.”
It wasn’t satire. It wasn’t a joke. It was a straight-faced promotion of “medbeds”—a decades-old conspiracy theory that claims the U.S. government is hiding miraculous alien technology that can cure cancer, regrow limbs, and even resurrect the dead. QAnon believers have clung to this idea for years, claiming the “deep state” is suppressing the truth, and that Trump—naturally—is the only one who can reveal it.
In 2022, the BBC explained the medbed myth as part of “conspiratorial theorising” that includes claims like “John F Kennedy is still alive, strapped to a medbed.”
Now Trump is essentially starring in their infomercial.
The post came amid a flurry of late-night uploads, including AI artwork of Trump firing Fed Chair Jerome Powell, and a meme asking whether people still watch Robert De Niro movies. But it was the medbed pitch that stood out—not just for its absurdity, but for its cultish embrace of a conspiracy theory that blurs the line between mental illness and political propaganda.
The source of the video remains unknown, but the delivery was slick. The use of AI gave the whole thing a sanitized, Stepford-like feel that only deepened the creep factor.
Despite the fact that medbeds are pure fiction, the conspiracy theory has birthed a mini-industry of grifters trying to cash in. One company, Tesla BioHealing, sells a so-called “MedBed Generator” for $11,000—a glorified metal canister you place under your bed. The company’s CEO, James Liu, has distanced his business from the medbed hoax, telling reporters in 2022 that he didn’t want to be associated with “alien technology” claims, but insisted his products deliver “life force energy.”
Earlier this year, a Tesla BioHealing customer filed an FDA complaint alleging the device did absolutely nothing for his dying mother—and that the company had scrubbed his negative reviews from their website.
Meanwhile, Trump’s promotion of the medbed fantasy has reignited concerns over the increasingly unhinged content pushed by the president.
He deleted the post. But not before the internet saw it and saved it for eternity. And not before it reminded everyone just how deep down the rabbit hole he is willing to go to pump his ego.
