Here ya go - as you can see, it was a ReTruth. We can also easily tell it's heavily photo-shopped. Notice that even the American flag pin on his left lapel has been whited out. Trump would never stand for that. I can also recall seeing a "The Storm is Coming...I Am The Storm" meme mixed in somewhere, but that meme was around before Trump announced his candidacy, so it has no value. Other than that I didn't see any other Q related Truths in my first or second searches, which were admittedly quick scans. As is to be expected, there are a LOT of Trump Truths and ReTruths so there's no doubt he has staff doing most of these posts for him. Personally, I don't think this establishes any sort of relationship between Trump and the Q-Anon nuts. It's one re-post and doesn't establish a pattern, in spite of what Media Matters may try to have us think.But the reports are not saying the image depicting Trump wearing a Q pin on his right lapel was a real photo. They call it an image or photo-shopped image. I agree with you, Pilgrim. I think the image is a photo-shopped image.
My question is not about the image being photo-shopped. It's about the reports that say Trump himself posted that image on Truth Social. Example:
"Trump shared a picture of himself wearing a Q lapel pin, overlaid with the QAnon phrases “The Storm is Coming” and “WWG1WGA,” (an acronym for “Where We Go One, We Go All) on his Truth Social account September 12." (Source)
My question is easy to answer. Did Trump use his own Trump Social account to post this image on Truth Social?
My follow up question is why would they re-post this when it's obviously a fake? Maybe Trump needs better control over his Truth Social staff.
