When Rhode Island’s teacher of the year took his turn in front of the camera with President Trump, he struck a pose some took as an act of defiance:

Nikos Giannopoulos cocked his head ever so slightly away from the president, toward a black lace fan he’d brought with him. He wore a rainbow pin on his lapel, a ring through his nose and a gold anchor around his neck.

“Bold, Gay Teacher Of The Year Photo Bombs Donald Trump With Fan,” was HuffPost’s first headline (later toned down) after Giannopoulos posted the photo on Facebook on Thursday and quickly amassed thousands of shares.

2. Is that a poster of Melania Trump?

Or was she photo shopped into the picture?

3. She's smiling.

So I'm guessing photo shopped!

4. Cardboard cutout!

Drumpf takes it with him everywhere he goes.

5. The cardboard cutout has a warmer personality.

And will require far less maintenance or alimony when Trump discards it.
