President Donald Trump made a striking claim during a recent White House press event, telling those gathered that an unnamed new drug has the ability to bring patients back from death’s door.

“We know the drug works,” Trump, 79, said during the press conference at the White House on Monday, May 11, per a clip shared on X. “We’ve taken people that were dead. We had a person given the last rites — gone, the kids are crying and everything — and started them on this drug. And the person became better. It works.”

      I don’t know if any of this stupid discussion is real, but if it is, then we also have time travel, because the post mentions that the zombie drug was announced on May 11.

        Ah I didn’t catch the date, I just assumed it was a recent reaction to something, and that stuck out as the obvious recent development to me
