Resurfaced ‘Baron Trump’ Books Are Sending The Internet Down A Rabbit Hole

It wouldn’t be a day that ends in ‘y’ without a conspiracy theory about Donald Trump to take you (willingly or not) down a serious rabbit hole. In this case, per the New York Post, it’s a resurfaced book called The Travels and Adventures of Little Baron Trump and his Wonderful Dog Bulger and old artwork that has wild unexplained references to Trump and those around him. Now, because of the latter, people are even theorizing that Trump is a time traveler.

I mean, that would explain his cognitive issues when speaking to large crowds, and his aversion to social media etiquette with those ridiculously long Truth Social posts, right? But people are going down deep rabbit holes while trying to figure out what the Baron Trump novels mean, what the artwork does or doesn’t have to do with Trump, and why conspiracy theories about Trump are seriously never-ending.

The resurfaced ‘Baron Trump’ book is confusing and fascinating people.

There are two books in the Baron Trump series by Ingersoll Lockwood that came out in the late 1800’s: The Travels and Adventures of Little Baron Trump and his Wonderful Dog Bulger and Baron Trump’s Marvellous Underground Journey. The books follow a boy named German boy Wilhelm Heinrich Sebastian Von Troomp, who goes by Baron Trump, and details his travels to fantastical places, a la Alice in Wonderland.

But the tie-in to Barron Trump, Trump’s youngest child, is hard for some conspiracy theorists to just ignore. Can you really blame them?

“You have to admit it’s some coincidence,” someone wrote on X (formerly Twitter). “‘Baron Trump’s Marvelous Underground Journey’ is an 1893 children’s fantasy novel by Ingersoll Lockwood following a young aristocrat and his dog, Bulger. Guided by ‘Don,’ the master of all masters, Baron explores hidden, fantastical worlds while learning moral lessons.”

Someone replied to that post with, “This is possible by accessing future memories encoded in our DNA! Time in superposition and past and future exist into the now! Information from the past is mistakenly taken as previous lives/reincarnation, but are the memories of our ancestors!”

There are also ancient sketches pegged to Trump.

The other wild connection to Trump from long ago artifacts, according to the New York Post, are sketches by Prussian artist Charles Dellschau that seem to allude to Trump and his future in the White House. The artist was allegedly fascinated by wild flying machines that resembled hot air balloons, but with a more dramatic and futuristic flair. Time machines, perhaps?

But one of his recovered sketches has the word ‘TRUMP’ written at the top, accompanied by a blonde man in control of a flying machine with ’45’ on it. Of course, to some conspiracy theorists, that 5 is in reference to Trump being the forty-fifth president during his first term in office. But don’t get it twisted, because nothing makes sense about this theory at its core, even if some people think otherwise.

Under a TikTok that features the ancient sketches, someone commented, “He’s a time traveler saving the world from Armageddon.”

After another user posted a TikTok about it, another person wrote, “Oh this is a new rabbit hole for me. Where can I find more?

Some joked that Donald Trump is a time traveler.

Because of the Baron Trump books and now the sketches, some people joked that Trump is a time traveler. Others are convinced it’s just wild enough to be true. And then there are those who believe they have more so-called evidence to back it up. Like someone on X, who wrote in a post that Nikola Tesla had the information needed to make a real time machine and that, somehow, that data got into the hands of one of Trump’s relatives.

“He also SUPPOSEDLY had all the workings for a time machine, which SUPPOSEDLY ended up in the hands of John Trump, Donald Trump’s uncle,” they wrote.

On a Reddit thread about time travel, users discussed the possibility of Trump being a time traveler, while others shot down the conspiracy theory pretty quickly.

“I’m not buying the whole time travel thing with Trump,” one Redditor commented. “But I do believe that when trauma occurs it ripples through time. I suspect that Donald Trump is causing such a collective trauma that it’s just sending signals through time and hitting a lot of people as creative downloads, basically generating all this weird Trump-related content backwards in time.”

And there we have another rabbit hole to explore.
