Donald Trump Jr’s account on X posted that his father had died, in a series of messages placed by a hacker on Wednesday.
In a string of now-deleted posts, the account claimed his father had died and directed a racial slur at President Joe Biden.
The Trump Organization said that the account was hacked.
One of the posts read: “I’m sad to announce, that my father Donald Trump has passed away. I will be running for president in 2024.”
Another said North Korea was “about to get smoked”, while one post wrote of “some interesting messages” with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Others mentioned Richard Heart, a cryptocurrency influencer facing fraud charges by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and YouTuber Logan Paul.
