A Time Magazine with Trump on the cover hangs in his golf clubs. It’s fake - Polidicks

[t]https://www.hollyshop.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/big_lebowski_mirror3.jpg[/t] [quote]The framed copy of Time Magazine was hung up in at least four of President Trump’s golf clubs, from South Florida to Scotland. Filling the entire cover was a photo of Donald Trump. “Donald Trump: The ‘Apprentice’ is a television smash!” the big headline said. Above the Time nameplate, there was another headline in all caps: “TRUMP IS HITTING ON ALL FRONTS . . . EVEN TV!” This cover — dated March 1, 2009 — looks like an impressive memento from Trump’s pre-presidential career. To club members eating lunch, or golfers waiting for a pro-shop purchase, it seemed to be a signal that Trump had always been a man who mattered. Even when he was just a reality-TV star, Trump was the kind of star who got a cover story in Time. But that wasn’t true. The Time cover is a fake. There was no March 1, 2009, issue of Time Magazine. And there was no issue at all in 2009 that had Trump on the cover.[/quote] Source [url]https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/a-time-magazine-with-trump-on-the-cover-hangs-in-his-golf-clubs-its-fake/2017/06/27/0adf96de-5850-11e7-ba90-f5875b7d1876_story.html[/url] Wasn't sure if this belonged in SH or Polidicks due to involvement of the cheetoh man himself.

Oh my gosh. How embarrassing.

Can Time sue over this? Seems like trademark violation to me, since he's displaying it in public and it's not clear if it's a parody.

That doesn't even look remotely real. Did he make it himself?

why would anyone even be writing about The Apprentice in 2009? like why not fake an article from when the show started in 2004, or about how his campaign boosted the show's ratings or something? doesn't make a lick of sense

If this is actually done by Trump himself. His Ego must be hurting so bigly.

[QUOTE=MissingGlitch;52407633]If this is actually done by Trump himself. His Ego must be hurting so bigly.[/QUOTE] most time covers don't have that much punctuation the style on this one is more reminiscent of, wait for it, a trump tweet

[QUOTE=Sir Whoopsalot;52407599]You know, I thought it was an okay fake if you just glance at it. But then I saw the stories on the side and it looks [I]so bad[/I].[/QUOTE] Look at the top of the first one, 2/3 of the stories are ripped from that one. The only story that's not is the global warming one, and it's not even wrong, scientists agree we are living through a [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holocene_extinction]major extinction event[/url].

I read the title and I was confused because I thought it meant Trump had them in his literal golf clubs that he uses to golf and I didn't understand what the hell all this meant.

It's hilarious that Trump's entire focus since his campaign has been feels before reals disinfo PR and it all comes back to bite him in the ass eventually.

How long before this becomes the next photoshop meme?

When even the president's own fake Time Magazine cover acknowledges the existence of climate change, maybe it's time for him to rethink his policies. My God I can't even begin to fathom what a stupid attempt at forgery this was. The Time logo is supposed to go in the background, not the foreground. It's like Trump wanted to emphasize the logo sooooo badly that he actually plastered it on top of his own face, and the result looks ridiculous. Although with headlines such as "Trump's hitting on all fronts...even TV!" perhaps that ship already sailed. What an unconscionable moron.
