Trump’s 2020 Campaign Caught Using STOLEN Photos Of Black People With Photoshopped MAGA Hats
September 16, 2019



Rykard Jenkins is mostly known for his appearance on the U.K. reality show Love Island but he has recently been getting attention for something else.

Rykard shared a picture of himself wearing a Trump 2020 baseball cap that had obviously been photoshopped. The hat he had originally been wearing in the picture (an advertisement for the FXB brand), had been edited to look like a Trump 2020 cap.



Woke up this morning to know I’m the new face for the 2020
@realDonaldTrump
campaign 🇺🇸 ?


Jenkins, who lives in the UK, seems to have a sense of humor about the situation but while he may find the photo amusing, some people are seeing a pattern of Trump’s team taking images of people of color and photoshopping them to promote himself.

There should be a law that if someone uses your image/intellectual property without your permission, then you can use theirs to promote any cause you wish.

Reciprocity.

I guess they don't care if they get caught. By the time the truth gets out the brainwashed will have the "facts" they'll think is real.

More proof they need to be out of running the country.

It helps that medium blue is my favorite color, followed by forest green. Red comes in way, way down the list (even farther down now).
