Now this is fucking funny!

The image almost resembles the official seal of the president, but a closer examination reveals alterations that seem to poke fun at the president’s golfing penchant and accusations that he has ties to Russia. Neither the White House nor Turning Point knows how it got there or who created it.

I love the golf clubs, nice touch. If this was an accident then you get what you pay for...lol! If this was intentional, the person who did this is cool in my book! :D

Trump and his oh so fragile ego will grievously suffer for this if he's made aware. I'm thinking his staff of sycophant babysitters are trying their best to keep this insult "to the office of the president" permanently out of his sight and mind.

One of Trump's greatest weaknesses is that his "image" is a wholly contrived one that needs constant care and managing by him and his staff. He is in every way possible a fake, a fraud, a charlatan who relies on a transparent disguise that fools no one except for those that want to see what they want to see and not what's really there.

Man, no matter how you feel about this twit of a president, that's a damn good troll.

I hope Colbert and the other talk show hosts use it tonight on their shows. The banner reads 45 is a puppet.

Agreed. Especially considering the audience. And the motto was altered to read "45 is a puppet" in Spanish. :D

I'll bet the Donald is having a conniption fit..

That's fucking beautiful! We can only hope when King Donnie finds out, it causes him to have a major stroke...

BBC is reporting that someone from Turning Point USA, the host of the conference, was the one fired.

A representative for the group, Turning Point USA, told the Washington Post that the fake seal was a mistake, the result of a rushed online search.
But while the group called the slip-up "unacceptable", they maintained there was no "malicious intent".

Seems like this was a legit mistake? Someone else had created this fake seal and it showed up in an internet search, and whoever the graphic designer was, they didn't realize it was a fake seal.

It looks like it...lol! WaPo has an update:

One Post reader noted a website that sells merchandise featuring what appears to be the same fake seal. In those images, the words on the parody eagle’s banner say “45 es un títere,” which in Spanish translates to “45 is a puppet.” On the official presidential seal, the eagle’s mouth holds a banner with the U.S. motto, “E pluribus unum” — out of many, one. The fake seal on the shop’s merchandise shows the eagle clutching cash in its right talons.

The Post reached out to the Twitter and Facebook accounts associated with the Web retailer, “OneTermDonnie,” but has not received a reply.

Here's another pic of the image:

Pretty damned good job in making it look almost like the real thing. Real enough that it fooled some conservative dipstick to use it to honor the President. :D

Fire the poor bastard who did the search but where is the accountability for the White House advance team which should always be providing the images they want used? This administration always fucks up the details.
