If you saw it you probably thought, “maybe it’s fake,” but also thought it could have been real.
The alleged Donald Trump 2021 Christmas card – including a black and white photo of the former president with Santa and his reindeer evoking an image, according to many, of an ejaculating penis – is fake, according to CNN fact checker Daniel Dale.
“Merry Christmas From The Winter White House,” the card reads. (There is no “Winter White House” despite Trump’s attempts to legitimize the Mar-a-Lago claim.)
The fake card is complete with a presidential seal and five Christmas ornaments depicting (in order) Ivanka Trump, Melania Trump, Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump, and Tiffany Trump – causing “Barron” to trend on Twitter for hours with users asking why he was not, even now, included.
Dale calls out several anti-Trump social media accounts for claiming the card is real.
But many apparently thought it was real.
One Twitter user called it “the most pathetic late life crisis I’ve ever seen.”
