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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.
