A recent surge in online speculation has ignited discussions about whether Donald Trump might be a time traveler—based on bizarre historical parallels between his family and 19th-century literature.

According to reports from The New York Post, a collection of sketches by Prussian-born artist Charles Dellschau (who died in 1923) contains the word “TRUMP” and references labeled “45,” sparking theories that the former president could have traveled through time. Dellschau’s drawings depict “aeros”—bizarre flying machines resembling a mix of balloons, airplanes, and steampunk technology—and some illustrations show a blond figure steering a craft with the number 45 visible in the text.

The connection deepened when attention turned to Ingersoll Lockwood’s children’s novels from the 1890s. One series features a character named “Baron Trump” who lives at “Castle Trump” and travels through underground civilizations, while another book titled 1900: or, The Last President describes political chaos in New York City following an election victory by an outsider candidate—mirroring modern events.

In the novels, Baron Trump has a mentor named “Don,” who guides him through adventures, and a character named “Mr. Pence.” The story also references Fifth Avenue, where Trump Tower now stands. Critics note that the books were published in 1889 and 1893—over a century before Barron Trump was born—and have been called “eerie” by conspiracy theorists who see them as evidence of time travel connections.

The theory gained momentum when a company named Ingersoll Lockwood, Inc., founded in 2020, began appearing online with website content referencing the year 2023/5784 (the Hebrew calendar). The company’s “Reading Library” section links to the Book of Enoch—a text about fallen angels and space—while also promoting “safe clean new energy.”

The site further displays a clock face labeled “INGERSOLL TRUMP” with hands pointing at 10 and 2, matching patterns seen in Q-related time travel theories. Meanwhile, online discussions have highlighted how Donald Trump has repeatedly claimed to know things others don’t—adding fuel to the speculation that he might possess abilities beyond normal human limitations.

As these connections continue to surface across historical records and modern digital platforms, the question remains: Could Donald Trump be a time traveler?
