The dumbass who used it for the TPUSA event probably did a Google search for "trump presidential seal free", found that and thought: "Golf balls, clubs, latiney words...perfect!"

(Never mind that Bob Muellar all but declared Trump a criminal).

We are in a propaganda war with Russsia and treasonous enablers. Time for a flotilla of handmade bumper signs:

TREASON

BOB SAYS HE CAN BE CONVICTED AFTER OFFICE

BOB SAYS HE's NOT EXONERATED

etc.....

“It was a last-minute A/V mistake — and I can’t figure out where the breakdown was — but it was a last minute throw-up, and that’s all it was,” a Turning Point USA spokesman told the Washington Post, adding that he didn't know who was to blame or where the image was from."

This is in addition to the two-headed Russian eagle and golf clubs in the other talon.

What this shows is just how sloppy the Trump advance team really is. And this points out how easily it would be for a foreign actor to do great harm.

REPORTER (Jeff Mason from Reuters): President Putin, did you want President Trump to win the election and did you direct any of your officials to help him do that?

PUTIN: Yes, I did. Yes, I did. Because he talked about bringing the US/Russia relationship back to normal.

That's pretty good puppet making there.

I don't want the puppet in front of a firing squad or in a noose, I just want him in a little, stone cell for the rest of his natural life.

Russian Hammer and Sickle, $$$ in one talon, golf clubs in the other. 45 is a puppet, the two headed eagle.

And the best part is, everyone from the audience to the master puppet didn't know. Traitors!

But she put it in context of the group of young people 45 was addressing and showed the video that was on the screen about 45,'s youth and growing up. It was freaky. Ribbons and medals and winning for young Trump. And he liked boys and girls. Dear leader grows up.

He was onstage for an hour and never noticed it. Nobody there noticed it.

What a bunch of dummies.

of the time leading up to 45's entrance. During the on stage video of Trump's young life--which was several minutes long-- the projected emblem was visible to stage right. Then he came on and the emblem continued to be visible projected behind him stage right. There was a correct emblem stage left with Trump's name flashing over it while he walked around the stage.

Rachel said that the stage right incorrect emblem continued to be projected during the entire time of his talk, which was almost an hour.
