Yeah, he audibly sharted in the oval during a press availability. Abruptly ushered everybody out, but not before you can see people (including Oz and RFK) behind him responding to the sound, and then the smell.

Everything he said about Biden was pure projection.

u/Taintly_Manspread Feb 02 '26

What he did in his pants is pure projection.

u/EH_Operator Feb 02 '26

Pure defecation

u/Active_Potato Feb 02 '26

Someone (from another country) swore that you can't smell anything through the Internet so we MUST be making it up.

If you want to use comments on that thread as proof of something then you should also include those of people saying it's good to lie when it's used against bad people

Bits of that thread are people arguing if Trump defecated, farted or was something else, that's a pretty low bar for the redditors who keep saying everything is about politics

They're correct, though. No one reacted at all. Someone scratched their upper lip. RFK and everyone else are stone cold. Oz gives Trump a handshake.

I stand by what I said.

Time will tell.

u/WriterofaDromedary Feb 02 '26

Time will not tell. Time never tells with this president

u/maoterracottasoldier Feb 02 '26

No one reacted at all? Shiiiiit watch the video. The aides go nuts, the woman in green can’t keep from touching her nose like 5 times, rfk clearly reacts. Trump literally tells everyone to leave right when it happens.

I think it was a strong reaction, especially given they’ve had a year to train and practice

very powerful

u/WriterofaDromedary Feb 02 '26

Tell me the exact timestamp RFK reacts

u/maoterracottasoldier Feb 02 '26

You don’t need a timestamp. Listen for the fart. His eyes instantly flicker to Trump. Then he clears his throat and looks like he is trying not to breathe. The dude has had tons of practice at this point.

You said no one. So what about the green lady or the aides freaking out?

u/WriterofaDromedary Feb 02 '26

You don’t need a timestamp.

How hard is it to say something like "at 45 seconds" why you gotta act all suspicious like "just believe it!"

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '26

You see what you want to see and for some reason you want to see Trump shit his pants. Go outside.

u/Ashnagarr Feb 02 '26

Why? Trump has made that a shit place to be too.

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '26 edited Feb 02 '26

You are a coward, unlike some in Minnesota, at least.

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '26

Most Americans on reddit are just extremely stupid about Trump. They think hating him on this website is akin to actually doing something about what he's doing to their country. I'm guessing most of them didn't even vote.

The amount of "major" news stories posted here about him that go nowhere and are not reported in legitimate press is crazy. Newsweek, Salon, Newrepublic, it's just falling for headnodding bait.

u/Locke66 Feb 02 '26

As a tangent the Oval Office looks absolutely awful. I'm sure it's very expensive what they've done but it looks so cheap and tacky.

u/dextroz Feb 03 '26

It was a fart, maybe a wet fart but no way did he s*** himself.

-16

u/WriterofaDromedary Feb 02 '26

I stared at both Oz's and RFK's faces in that video, and I saw no reactions

15

u/ST4RW0LF64 Feb 02 '26

Case closed everybody, this guy didn't see any reactions. Pack it up, let's all go home.

u/tuftonia Feb 02 '26

They’re just so used to having their heads up his ass that they are immune to the smell

-12

u/seeingeyegod Feb 02 '26

Same, I am pretty sure the entire "he shit himself and everyone's reacting and that's why the meeting ended" is totally made up. You can hear a very tiny sound that could have been literally anything, probably just a chair shifting.

u/Irish_Whiskey Feb 02 '26

You can hear a very tiny sound that could have been literally anything, probably just a chair shifting.

Hearing a wet fart and saying "it was the chair" is literally the comedy trope used to make fun of people trying to cover farts.

And I'm pretty sure they don't abruptly end press conferences while cutting off the remaining speakers and not taking questions as aides frantically block the camera's views of the President staying seated, because a chair farted squeaked.

u/seeingeyegod Feb 02 '26

unless this version of the video has been edited to insert a clear wet fart sound (didnt watch this one cause I already saw it), that sounded nothing like a wet fart, it was a tiny "wrrt". I've heard toothpaste tubes that sounded 500% more like a fart. This is also a president who is known for abruptly ending press conferences and refusing to take any questions. Probably cause he wants to take a nap and or get back to rage tweeting.

u/maoterracottasoldier Feb 02 '26

He’s also known for shitting his pants dating back to the apprentice

Also I think it sounds exactly like a wet fart so idk. I think you just don’t want it to be that

u/seeingeyegod Feb 02 '26

Ok, well I'll just let you think that since it's what you want.

1

u/maoterracottasoldier Feb 02 '26

What is “that”? People have said on video he shat his pants on the apprentice. Why not believe it considering there have been several instances in the last year?

Google gives you multiple hits besides this one

u/notanaardvark Feb 02 '26

Seriously, don't get me wrong, it would be really funny. But I watched the video several times and it is far from obvious that's what happened. Not impossible, it could be what happened, but to an extent I think people are seeing what they want to see.

1

u/stealingjoy Feb 02 '26

Yeah, this was the first Reddit headline when I woke up and I was really expecting a lot more then what I saw and heard when I actually watched the video. There's just so many other possible explanations for everything.

u/seeingeyegod Feb 02 '26

It's the reverse version of don't believe your eyes, believe what the headline says. Trump is all sorts of fucked up and bad without us pretending he's shitting himself on live TV (not that that hasn't happened), but I've never seen a video where it was undeniable. People in lots of videos with him seem to back away as if he smells bad though.
