Did Donald Trump post on Truth Social that he would be "vaporizing an entire nation of ANIMALS" on Tuesday? No, that's not true: There is no evidence such a post was published on Trump's account. The account's profile description stated its posts were for amusement, suggesting it is a satire account.
The claim appeared in a post (archived here) shared by the @RudyHavenstein account on X on April 6, 2026. The fake Truth Social screenshot read:
Allahu Akbar, America!! Tuesday I will be vaporizing an entire nation of ANIMALS - Persians Who have NO SENSE of history will feel my wrath. IT'S Simple. Open the Strait or DIE, you crazy bastards. There is NO STOP SIGN or SPEED LIMIT that will slow me down. God told me to skin you alive, and I will. YOLO! President DONALD J. TRUMP
This is what the post looked like at the time of writing:
