Former President Donald Trump is once again pushing the baseless claim that **Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s father was Fidel Castro**, the longtime communist leader of Cuba. This conspiracy theory, which has been repeatedly debunked, is among the many controversial topics Trump revisits in his upcoming book, *Save America*. The book, described as a “coffee table book” filled with photos and captions from Trump’s time in and after the Oval Office, also includes several of his personal theories about public figures.
One of the most bizarre claims is that **Margaret Trudeau**, Justin Trudeau’s mother, had an affair with Fidel Castro in the 1970s, leading to Trudeau’s birth. **Justin Trudeau** has categorically denied this claim, and it has been discredited by a fact check from **The Associated Press** as well as the Canadian government back in 2018. Despite this, Trump continues to circulate the rumor, even questioning how Trudeau could be sure of his own parentage. In his book, Trump remarks on **Margaret Trudeau’s lively social life** during the 1970s, including clubbing with members of **The Rolling Stones**. He even suggests that she had relationships with the band members, an unsubstantiated claim he allegedly made to his former White House press secretary, **Stephanie Grisham**.
The theory that Trudeau is Castro’s son gained some traction in the past, particularly after **Trudeau’s 2016 tribute to Castro**, which praised the Cuban leader as a “legendary revolutionary.” However, the timeline doesn’t support the claim: **Margaret Trudeau** first visited Cuba in 1976, four years after Justin’s birth in 1971, making the theory unfounded.
Trump’s *Save America* is already generating attention for its provocative content and promises to appeal to his **MAGA base** as he campaigns for a second term in office. **Sergio Gor**, the publisher of Winning Team Books, noted the high demand for the publication, stating that it captures Trump’s “historic journey” in a visually engaging format.
