Former President Donald Trump’s appearance in a new campaign video has stirred significant attention, not for his message, but for his noticeable “foamy saliva.” Social media users have been quick to question the potential health implications.
In the video, Trump passionately encouraged his supporters to vote by any means necessary, including absentee and mail-in ballots—methods he previously criticized.
“Many Republicans like to vote on Election Day, and we must swamp the radical Democrats with massive turnout on Tuesday, November 5,” Trump emphasized. He urged his followers to “make a plan, register, and vote any way possible” to ensure a landslide victory.
“So, with your vote, we will win a victory, the likes of which no one has ever seen before. We will evict crooked Joe Biden from the White House and take back our country on November 5, 2024,” Trump declared.

However, Trump’s fervent appeal was overshadowed by his physical condition in the clip. Observers noted he appeared to be spitting and had froth around his mouth. This unusual display quickly became a hot topic on social media platforms.
The Patriot Takes account on X, formerly known as Twitter, shared a 10-second clip highlighting Trump’s condition, noting, “Trump spitting while telling his followers to vote for him. Instead of reshooting the video, his campaign just ran with it.”
The account, which tracks right-wing extremism, further commented that Trump “struggled with foamy saliva” during the recording.
Political commentator Brian Tyler Cohen and other social media users speculated about potential health issues. One user cited a medical article stating that “foaming or frothing at the mouth occurs when excess saliva pools in the mouth or lungs and mixes with air. Causes include drug overdose, seizures, pulmonary edema, and rabies. It is usually a medical emergency.”
Another added, “frothy saliva is a rare symptom; when you see it, you should be concerned and immediately send for medical assistance.”
Reactions ranged from expressions of disgust to serious health concerns, with some even suggesting Trump might have rabies.
Rick Wilson, co-founder of The Lincoln Project, chimed in with the hashtag “#RabidDon.”
Another user joked about bringing in South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem to “put Trump out of his misery,” referencing her controversial shooting of her 14-month-old dog.
The video, meant to galvanize Trump’s voter base, has instead raised a flurry of questions and concerns about his health, overshadowing his intended campaign message.
