Did Trump leave Mar-a-Lago in ambulance? Here is the truth

Rumors about ambulances seen leaving US President-elect Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida on November 21 caused a stir on social media, with some speculating about Trump's health. However, the country's secret service has debunked the rumors, confirming that the ambulances were unrelated to

or any other protectee at the estate.
Anthony Guglielmi, chief of communications for the US secret service, responded to a journalist's claim of ambulances leaving Mar-a-Lago on the social media platform X, saying:
"Andrew, we are not tracking any Secret Service-directed medical transports from Mar-a-Lago. From our personnel on the ground, there are no issues or concerns with any Secret Service protectees on property."
He added that if there was an ambulance on-site, it may have been due to an unrelated issue.

The ambulances were part of vice president-elect JD Vance's motorcade, according to media reports. It is standard procedure for ambulances to accompany motorcades of high-profile individuals as a precautionary measure.

The incident sparked online speculation, fueled by initial reports from journalists stationed near Mar-a-Lago who witnessed the ambulances and other vehicles.
Steven Cheung, director of communications for the Trump White House, criticized the initial reports, saying on X that a reporter "overreacted and set off the fire alarm for no reason."

"The press has set up a fake, unofficial 'pool' because they want to feel important about themselves. In this case, some idiot at CBS overreacted and set off the fire alarm for no reason thinking they were going to get the scoop of a lifetime. F**king dummy," Cheung posted on X.

The rumor began with a November 21 post on X, claiming that Trump was seen leaving his Florida home in an emergency vehicle. "Now Trump in an ambulance out of Mar-a-Lago with vans full of Secret Service," the post said.
Similar rumors speculating about ambulances leaving Mar-a-Lago spread on other social media platforms as well. Social media posts on November 21 also referenced dispatches from pool reporters noting ambulances, a helicopter, and more than 20 vehicles seen at Mar-a-Lago.
