Friday’s earthquake near New York City is shaking up social media in lots of ways ― including inspiring mock conspiracy theories.
Turns out the epicentre for the 4.8 magnitude earthquake was near Whitehouse Station, New Jersey, and only 6.5 miles from Donald Trump’sBedminster National Golf Club.
And after Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) posted a tweet suggesting the quake was a message from above to repent, many people on X (formerly Twitter) decided to ponder the “real” reasons for the quake.
And “real” as in “really snarky”.
Oh, and yes, the fact that Ivana Trump, the former president’s ex-wife, is buried at Bedminster did come up. Thanks for asking.
Trump Bedminster was the epicenter of the Earthquake?
Who else thinks Ivana wants the missing classified documents to be found?

Earthquake near Bedminster, NJ. Ground shakes. It opens. Zombie Ivana Trump crawls out of her grave pushing the classified documents that filled her coffin aside. She's angry.

NYC: that wasn't an earthquake it was just Trump landing in Bedminster for the weekend. pic.twitter.com/qwPV2Vp5Xh

Ok, so we had an earthquake in NJ. Shook the house bit. Maybe Trump was in Bedminster selling bibles again and God was like enough already.

The epicenter of the #earthquake wasn’t far from Bedminster. Are we sure it wasn’t Trump throwing a tantrum about how much losing he’s been doing lately? pic.twitter.com/38b4QlJlc4
