I’m somewhat obsessed with photography of late, so let’s have some fun with this one.
Digital pics embed information called “EXIF data”.
That data includes a timestamp and various other bits of info about the picture. It can be stripped out but there’s no reason to usually.
1/
The White House distributed pictures of Trump alleging he was working yesterday.
The pictures were taken in two different settings using a small set of props arranged to look as if they were two different scenes.
2/
The EXIF data shows the pics were taken ten minutes apart.
So, for real, Donald Trump had his staff expose themselves to his COVID to setup a staged scene for a posed pic...
...and then had them sweep up the props and do it again at another location.
3/
And Trump and his crew are such low-rent cheeseball frauds:
1) They had him signing blank paper
2) They used the same exact props
3) They forgot to strip out the EXIF data
4/
We shouldn’t be surprised.
This is the same Trump who pretended to be writing his inaugural address as President at a desk that was actually in a Mar a Lago hallway.
5/
The guy is fake from head to toe.
A total con.
This stupid charade was extra rushed and extra sloppy even for Trump.
The only question is why they were in such a rush when Trump’s is bored sitting around and feels well.
Hmm.
