Aide fired after fake presidential seal displayed next to Trump at Turning Point USA event
|
[FOXNEWS] An aide has been fired after President Trump took the stage at a Turning Point USA event earlier this week in front of a doctored presidential seal that featured pro-Russian imagery and said "45 is a puppet."
White House front man Judd Deere told the News Agency that Dare Not be Named officials "never saw the seal" before it was projected on a screen behind Trump as he was introduced Tuesday at Turning Point USA's teen summit. The altered seal appeared on the projector screen for at least 80 seconds behind Trump before it was taken down, the Washington Times reported.
Turning Point USA, a conservative group that has been aligned with Trump, announced Thursday that the aide responsible for the supposedly accidental mix-up has since been fired.
The doctored image featured a two-headed eagle, a direct nod to the Russia Federation’s coat of arms. The bird’s left claw held golf clubs instead of the original’s 13 arrows, which symbolize the 13 colonies. The right claw grasped cash, instead of the original’s olive branch.
The altered presidential seal read "45 es un titere," which translated from Spanish means "45 is a puppet." The authentic seal sports the Latin phrase "e pluribus unum," the U.S. motto meaning "out of many, one."
Turning Point USA claimed that, in haste, a member of the video team searched for a high-resolution file of the presidential seal and did not realize that the image was doctored before placing it on the screen behind Trump.
"We’re sorry for the mix-up and meant no disrespect to the White House or the President or the advance team," the nonprofit told CNN. Turning Point USA insisted they had "zero malicious intent" in the switch.
