Same way they did this one:




By making a fake video, and posting it on the same Twitter account.

That's how.

Do you see all of those other people in Manhattan tweeting their pictures of this sign?

No.

On a busy street in a city with millions of people, this Twitter account is the only one that noticed. Uh-huh, yep.

Oh, and, it's the only one that noticed the sign in Vegas in the tweet above. What a coincidence.

We're not going to survive another election given how easily people simply believe fake shit on the internet.
