President Donald Trump made waves on Friday during a White House event for state governors, where he praised the Amish and Pennsylvania Dutch communities for their remarkable health and lack of autism cases—suggesting their refusal to vaccinate could be a key factor.
The Amish, a traditional Christian community known for their rejection of modern conveniences, also largely refuse vaccinations.

Studies and anecdotal reports have long noted that Amish children experience significantly lower rates of chronic illnesses, including autism, allergies, and autoimmune diseases, compared to the general population.
“The Pennsylvania Dutch, they don’t do anything, and they’re amazingly healthy,” Trump remarked, highlighting what he sees as a stark contrast between their traditional lifestyle and the skyrocketing rates of autism across the country.

Trump pointed out that autism cases have surged from 1 in 20,000 just 15 years ago to 1 in 34 today—a trend he called both alarming and unacceptable.
While discussing potential causes, he floated the idea that something the U.S. government is “spraying” could be contributing to the crisis.
“Maybe it’s a spray that we spray all over the place that nobody else does, other countries don’t,” Trump speculated.
His comments have fueled speculation that he was referring to controversial government geoengineering programs, often labeled as “chemtrails.”
These clandestine programs involve the large-scale spraying of aluminum and other chemicals into the atmosphere, under the guise of climate control or weather modification.
Trump hinted that an investigation into the true causes of the autism epidemic is already underway, promising a major revelation soon.
“You’re going to find out something really soon,” he declared.
