Trump Faked Photos Showing Him ‘At Work’
October 4, 2020 at 7:05 am EDT By Taegan Goddard


The White House has released photos which purport to show President Trump “at work” at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

However, a close up of one photo shows Trump signing his name to a blank sheet of paper.

including a conference room, office, livingroom, and diningroom - along with the room with the hospital bed and associated medical equipment (all interconnected). It supposedly takes up a whole floor.

U.S president Trump isn’t staying in any old hospital room. Walter Reed Hospital has a six-room presidential suite just for the commander in chief that includes an intensive care unit, a kitchen, a living room, a bedroom, & a dining room with a crystal chandelier.

but I am also looking for that one in his first weeks in the Oval office where he had a pile of folders on the desk with the leather portfolio (supposedly with the nuclear codes), sitting unsecured on the desk next to the folders.

In previous faked photos of himself working he remembered to roll up the paper with his other hand (a most unnatural position) so nobody could see it was blank. Remember this from 2017?
