Donald Trump appeared on60 Minutesthis week following the White House Correspondents' Dinner shooting incident, with clips from the interview quickly circulating across social media platforms. Some posts claimed the footage showed theformer president wearing an adult nappy.
The interview, which shows Trump seated during a recorded discussion, prompted a wave of online commentary focused on his appearance. Users pointed to what they described as avisible bulge at the back of his suit, offering differing interpretations of what the images showed.
There has been no statement from Trump or his representatives addressing the speculation. No medical evidence has been presented to support the claims, which appear to be based on visual interpretation of the broadcast footage.
Clips from the interviewwere widely shared on platforms including X and TikTok, where users highlighted specific moments from the footage. Some posts focused on how Trump's suit appeared while he was seated, leading to a range of explanations.
One widely sharedpost from user Bill Maddenclaimed the footage showed Trump 'wearing a very thick adult diaper', alongside an image from the interview. The post was circulated widely and prompted furtherresponses repeatingor disputing the claim.

Other users suggested alternative explanations, including the fit of the suit, posture while seated, or the way the footage was filmed. Similar speculation has appeared online in previous election cycles without confirmed evidence.
Several of the most widely shared clips were zoomed in or edited, contributing to the spread of the claims. None of the posts included verification from the broadcaster or individuals involved in the production.
