A fake Christmas card of former President Donald Trump that's spreading on social media is likely using an altered version of a photo taken during his visit to Buckingham Palace, according to fact-checkers.
The card has a black-and-white image of Trump with a stern expression on his face. A nativity scene, a forest of Christmas trees, and an outline of reindeer pulling a Santa Claus sleigh are behind him.
The outline of his tuxedo in the doctored image appeared to be phallic, as people who shared it on social media noted.
December 6, 2021.
The card has five ornaments depicting a member of the Trump family.
The image is almost identical to a photo of Trump and his wife in London. The size of his hands appears to have been altered, and the design of his tuxedo is different from the original photo.
Doug Mills is on June 3, 2019.
It's not clear where the Christmas card came from.
The fake Christmas card is not listed on the official website of Trump or on his online shop.
The image on the card is fake and not from Trump, according to his spokeswoman.
Trump usually signs statements and endorsements as "Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States of America."
