Donald Trump has made his mark in history, and so has his family. But now, an old story has turned things on its head. People online are digging into an unusual theory that claims that Donald Trump and his son could be time travelers. All because of a century-old book.
The discussion started after social media users rediscovered illustrations from books written more than 100 years ago by author Ingersoll Lockwood. The stories, published in the late 1800s, follow a young boy named Baron Trump as he embarks on strange adventures with his mentor, Don.
Because of the similar names, many readers have pointed out what they believe are eerie connections to former U.S. president Donald Trump and his youngest son, Barron.
Adding to the mystery, some of the drawings in the books have also caught people’s attention. Online users claim certain sketches appear to depict places that look like modern New York, as well as scenes that remind them of political settings associated with Trump. These details have led some to believe the books somehow predicted the future.
Are Donald Trump and son Barron time travelers?
The theory has spread online like wildfire. Many are calling the similarities too strange to ignore. Some even suggest the stories could be proof of time travel, or that the Trump family has some unexplained link to events from the past.
However, historians say there’s no real evidence behind the claims. Experts point out that the names used in the books were not unusual at the time, and that people often see patterns in old stories that seem meaningful only after modern events happen.
Still, that hasn’t stopped the internet from speculating. The old sketches continue to circulate online, with many people fascinated by how something written more than a century ago can appear to line up with the present day.
Sure, that they are named Baron and Don might not be enough. But there is actually more. Per the NY Post, in the Last President. author Ingersoll Lockwood imagined a ‘chatoci New York Vote’ as well as riots on Fifth Avenue. Moreover, in the tale, President Bryan picks a “Pence” for his cabinet, just like Donald Trump did for Mike Pence.
“Don’t want to go down those rabbit holes”
Neither Donald nor Barron has spoken about the conspiracy theory. However, Trump has repeated times said, “I know things that other people don’t know,” which has sparked a debate.
Moreover, the president’s granddaughter, Kai Trump, has actually spoken about the theory, stating she doesn’t want to “go down those rabbit holes.”
Coincidence or something else entirely — the strange theory has once again left people wondering how the past can sometimes seem closer to the present than we expect.
