The Perfect Image. I’m Serious – It’s Perfect
We were all outraged when Trump spoke to the Hitler Youth Turning Point USA Youth Conference earlier this week when he falsely asserted that Article II of the Constitution allowed him to “do anything I want,” and spouted a three course menu of other lies. It was one of those events staged to whip up the crowd and provide sound bites for Fox Noise to broadcast in a continuous stream, but it ended up causing rising derision and laughter.
What’s causing the laughter? There was one little detail in the visuals projected onstage that no one noticed until it was too late – it was the presidential seal that Trump loves to liberally splash around (and attach to the cheesy crap that he sells on the side). But the seal projected on the screen behind him onstage was not the actual presidential seal. Have a look:
Look closer:
The seal had been doctored with the eagle from the Russian seal, the arrows replaced by golf clubs, and the olive branch replaced with a wad of cash. The “e pluribus unum” ribbon has been replaced by “45 es un titere,” which is Spanish for 45 is a puppet.” For reference, here’s the Washington Post’s side by side comparison with the Russian seal:
The seal is being sold on T shirts by a merchant that calls itself “One Term Donnie“, which is pretty funny by itself. Combine that with some absolute genius who engineered getting it projected right behind His Orangeness, this imagery is not only hilarious, it’s perfect. This seal precisely illustrate’s Trump’s total devotion to his Russian handlers, his love of golf and his drive for ill-gotten cash.
Turning Point USA is frantically trying to find the person who did this. When they find him/her, rather than being punished, they should be awarded the Nobel price for brilliance and bravery. Oh, and I bet the person who dropped the ball on this at the WH is already fired.
LOL.
And the audience was so mesmerized by his presence they never looked at the graphics….
1Seriously, this guy is a moron. Love this! I’d shake the hand of whomever pulled this prank!
2“Shake his hand”? I’ll buy him a drink or offer a joint, whatever they prefer.
3“….the Nobel price….”
I take it that was a deliberate typo. Truly inspired.
4Many years ago UCLA was playing in the Rose Bowl. Some Cal Tech students hacked into the score board and instead of UCLA it came up Cal Tech..Never did find the genius behind that
5Best laugh I have had in a long time…
This is what happens when the Klown Kar is being driven by an idiot surrounded by sycophantic morons who haven’t a clue how to do things. But, of course, they’re “all the best people”..
Yuh sure…
6Hey, remember when someone in the Dems put up a sign I believe in Chinese at a rally? Translation was something to the effect that the Republican(s) were (you fill in the blank). I think his ghost is up and roaring again.
That double headed eagle was so funny. I’m at the office and I’m laughing and I won’t tell anyone why!
7The eagle’s two faces — do they represent him being a two-faced liar or alternative truths?
8The altered Seal is amusing.
But hearing all those brainwashed kids screaming their adulation of Trump was freakin’ terrifying.
9They’re the Young Fascist Leaders of Tomorrow.
Please.
That would be the Twitler Youth.
10When you claim Article 2 allows you to do whatever you want, you get the Presidential Seal befitting of that comment.
11Since Trump claims that Article 2 gives him the authority to “do anything he wants” I guess that means that if Obama had, in fact, ordered the FBI to wiretap Trump Tower, (another Trump lie) then there are no grounds for Donnie’s complaint about same, since Obama would have been operating under the blanket authority granted him by Article 2.
I believe someone should inform his Orangeness that Tricky Dick tried something similar – “if the President does something, it’s not illegal” to get out from under the Watergate scandal and he crashed and burned.
12This made me so happy, and clearly
13y’all agree. These are just the kind
of non-violent, targeted, and humorous
activities we need to create, support,
fund, and pull off through the next
election.
Hit ‘em in the funny bone, it’s where
they expect it least.
I create and print distribute labels that can
be attached to products in my grocery
and other stores with messages like:
“Stick with GOP for higher prices” or
“Prices increased to pay for Trump
golf outings.”
It is my personal “one small step for
mankind” project. I had a knee replaced
10 days ago so I have time on my hands.
This needed another label, so I fixed it for you.

15The five small symbols across the top of the center shield on the two-headed Russian eagle’s chest, instead of being stars, are actually Russian ‘hammer and sickles’; and the thirteen gray ‘balls’ arched above the banner are really golf balls.
The picture shown above lacks optical resolution, but there is a sharper image at the twitlink below that reveals the brilliant details of this image/work of art [satirical class].
I ‘captured’ the pic above when this thread first posted and zoomed it in, knew there was something fishy about the top of the shield, etc., but couldn’t make it out; now there is more info available.
.
The person at the “one term donnie” link above has been verified to be the original artist of this fake emblem. So, if you like, buy something there and reward this person [they may need to hire some security…].
Who hacked it onto tRump’s background display screen at the Hitler Youth meeting is still unknown.

16This gets better and better. I initially wondered if it might have been intended as a joke by Turning Point, and proved to be too true to be funny. Now I’m leaning towards one of two ideas: a prankster or a WH/Turning Point staffer in a rush and too stupid or careless to check the image they pulled off the net. Nobody who was there seemed to notice.
17The ‘fake’ Prez seal artist has been identified, he’s Charles Leazott, a graphic designer, and a former Republican who despises tRump. He appreciates his website now making some money [donates 10% to ACLU], but he is getting swamped by hate invective from MAGAots and Trumpanzees.
It will be interesting to see how much ‘official’ flak the guy gets in the future: IE: IRS audits, harassment by LEO’s, etc. He may need to relocate to some nice neutral country.
The apparently inadvertent display of the seal at the Hitler Youth event was done by a staffer of the Rethug organizers, who has been fired.
