I’m saying that you posted two articles as proof while calling out the article linked here that had a cropped photo of something that happened in the older article you linked.
I am pointing out that this photo:
And this photo/video:
…are different. Similar, yes, but different. The second is what was cropped for the originally linked article.
I don’t understand what is fucky about the media choosing photos they want for whatever clicks or emotions they want to evoke. This is how it always works.
Imagine if you will a scenario in which a photographer, taking more than one picture of an event in time. And then stretch that imagination a little further that said photographer could release some photos in 2019 and then other photos from the same event 6 years later. Then imagine, just for shits and giggles, that a president has a team of people who are managing public perception.
Just so we’re clear my point is it’s weird, not proof of anything, just really fuckin weird considering this guy’s history.
I understand what you’re saying, but I just don’t think it’s that weird.
The photo in the original says “White House Press Pool” attribution underneath it. I think they just chose a photo without thinking much about it because that’s what the White House released. 🤷♂️
To be fair, the proportions on the Suburban with the plate ending on 002 are weirdly different. Look at the distance between the recess where the plate goes and the tail light. There’s also some weirdness with the top of he hatch. It could be something to do with the angle (or a different model of Suburban), but it could also easily be an image generator’s shitty job of trying to maintain a source image and losing the proportions.
Obviously that’s not any kind of certainty, but I’d be interested to see the source video that the more recent image was taken from.
Actually, there’s a lot of weirdness with this image. Where’s the Suburban’s tailpipe? Why is the “Suburban” text in the second SUV straight-on rather than at an angle? Did the stairs move? What’s going on with the lady in front with knees at two different heights? Why does the guy next to her look like he intentionally twisted up his pant legs as much as possible? Whose head is that poking up from behind it looking like they’re standing behind an object with no depth whatsoever? What’s with the inverted and blurred reflection of the guy standing behind the first SUV in the same pose as the first image? Why does the guy standing next to Trump have his hand cupped behind his back like he’s doing sleight of hand? Why is the Chevy logo on the front car smaller and not centered over the license plate?
Maybe it’s just a case of looking at an image for AI generation markers and finding a bunch of things that are actually more normal than they seem, but it certainly does make me wonder.
Yeah, it’s all entirely possible. I am just questioning probability. We will see though because you can’t hide something that big (e.g., a death) for that long.
The photo you’re commenting on, btw, is from 2019. The top photo is the more recent one. (Edit: yeah, I’m wrong about this - see below).
I managed to find a video from a different angle that Fox released, but you can’t really see his face. When he stops to talk, someone moves directly between his face and the camera, which then focuses on her face while zooming, and she stays still until he moves again. When half of his head is visible above the car, the camera doesn’t refocus and you can’t really make his face out, so it literally could just be anyone.
I appreciate your responses. The person I was replying to didn’t, or wasn’t able to, showcase the fuckyness so this is helpful to better understand what/why someone has that opinion.

You’ve got that backward.

This is the 2019 image. It’s even in the url.

Not to say it certainly isn’t him, but it’s not exactly substantial proof.
Ah yes, you’re absolutely correct. That is my mistake and your observations are good ones to definitely scrutinize.
I did find a video, but it’s from a different angle and is itself suspicious. I edited it into the last reply.
