The New York Post recently published an article titled “Is President Trump a Time Traveler,” which has ignited speculation about potential connections between historical artworks and contemporary political figures.
According to the report, a collection of 100-year-old sketches by Prussian-born artist Charles Dellschau contains references to the Trump name. The drawings, created in the early 20th century, feature what some observers describe as “TRUMP” scrawled across several pieces and a blonde figure steering a craft labeled “45.”
The report also highlights a series of children’s books published in the 1890s by American author Ingersoll Lockwood. These works include characters named “Baron Trump” who reside at “Castle Trump” and travel through extraordinary adventures under guidance from a mentor named “Don.” One book, titled “The Last President,” features a fictional presidential election with riots on Fifth Avenue in New York City—a location that coincides with the real-world Trump Tower.
In Lockwood’s narrative, a character named “President Bryan” selects someone called “Pence” for their cabinet, drawing parallels to Donald Trump’s former vice president Mike Pence.
The article notes that President Trump has repeatedly stated, “I know things that other people don’t know,” which some theorists have cited as potential evidence supporting time travel claims.
