Presidential Seal Doctored With Symbols Of Russia And Golf
 [Guardian] As Donald Trump addressed a rightwing crowd Can't expect more respect from the WaPo in Washington on Tuesday, the audience roared in support ‐ but it was a doctored onscreen display that ultimately took center stage. At a student summit hosted by the conservative group Turning Point USA, the president stood before what looks, to the casual observer, very much like the US presidential seal. A thorough and gleeful, I imagine examination by the Washington Post, however, reveals some odd tweaks to the image. First, the eagle has not one but two heads ‐ making it look a lot like Russia's coat of arms. And instead of holding arrows, as the bird does in the US seal, it's holding golf clubs. In other words, a proud presidential symbol was apparently reworked to shame Trump over two of the biggest targets of anti-Trump criticism ‐ Russian involvement in the 2016 election and excessive golfing ‐ and it was displayed behind the president for all to see. How this happened remains a mystery. Maybe for denialists and entrenched traitors The Post spoke with a White House representative who said officials hadn't seen the image in advance. A spokesperson for Turning Point USA, meanwhile, told the paper he was stumped as to the origins of the image, characterizing it as "a last-minute A/V mistake" the photons in the light did it "I can't figure out who did it yet," the spokesman said, adding that he didn't know where the image had come from. Richard Painter, the chief White House ethics lawyer under George W Bush, said Trump aides should have kept a closer eye on things. "Someone is going to be getting in trouble," he told the Post, "but they got one heck of a good laugh out of it." Obviously there are White House staffers in league with democrat and antifa type traitors, obstructionists/hecklers/saboteurs that need to be weeded out. Obama appointees and people with no respect for national emblems or icons, closet leftists. Try this in any other country, and you'd be in jail, your family jobless, penniless, tax and property records gone and roving bands of thugs eagerly awaiting your release. There is no way that the staff is clueless about this mockery. Posted by: Dron66046 2019-07-25 |
