A bizarre internet theory has turned conservative influencer Jayme Leagh Franklin into the unlikely star of a viral White House moment, after social media users claimed she had a hidden button on her stomach that could be used to wake Donald Trump.
Franklin was standing behind the US president during an Oval Office event on 10 August when Trump appeared to briefly close his eyes and tilt his head while listening to National Institutes of Health director Jay Bhattacharya speak. At the same time, Franklin could be seen repeatedly nodding and holding a hand over her stomach. The coincidence was enough for social media users to invent a nickname for her: 'The Zapper.'
