Trump posts weird image with rant against gag order in "greatest political witch hunt" by Hal Brown, MSW
The text in a Truth Social post was typical Trump but it was the illustration that got me to thinking
I saw this Trump Truth Social post in this article
'I am proud to represent our failing nation': Trump melts down in early morning court rant
This is what he wrote:
I am proud to represent our Failing Nation in fighting the GREATEST POLITICAL WITCH HUNT IN HISTORY. REMOVE THE GAG ORDER SO THAT I CAN SHOW HOW CORRUPT OUR COURT SYSTEM IS. PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES ARE NOT TO BE GAGGED!
More than the words which are typical of Trump, I was struck by the image. I wondered where the image Trump decided to use came from.
I couldn't find out who created the image and have no idea how Trump came across it but it has been online at least since 2020:
Obviously Trump found it and thought the image conveyed something he wanted to get across.
I suppose he thought his flag hugging and flag kissing photos had been overused or didn't have the glowing menacing look on his face which he wanted people to see.
The flag face reminded me of spectators at football games who paint their faces, and sometimes with men, their chests, with team logos. Some like Jamie Pagliei are locally famous for this (read article).
There are always people at Trump rallys who paint their faces, or in at least one instance at the RNC Conventon, the back of their heads. The blond woman shown twice below has be photographed at several rallies.
Trump wants people to go to jail for burning the flag:
He didn't object to it being used to beat police officers.
But when Trump defaces the flag by putting it on his face this is fine.
Of course Trump didn't literally use paint or makeup on his face. Someone used a more advanced AI than the free one from Perchance Photo AI (below) which I have to superimpose the Stars and Stripes on his face.
Trump, in his warped narcisstic mind, thinks showing the stars and stripes on his face conveys patriotism.
What kind of person does this? (That's a rhetorical question.)
I suppose one can be grateful that at least he didn't use a computer generated image of himself as Captain America like the one I just made.
Here's a more accurate one:
