    But closer inspection reveals that the March 1, 2009, cover is false.

    The Washington Post investigated and reported Tuesday that Time had no magazine cover with that date, nor had the publication featured Trump on its cover at any time in 2009.

    Is the president who railed against “fake news” as recently as Tuesday decorating his clubs with phony magazine covers?

    A Time spokeswoman confirmed for the Post that the cover in question is not real. Representatives for the Trump Organization and the White House declined to comment.

    It was unclear who produced the phony magazine cover, or why.

    Oh, c’mon. Fake news! Doesn’t everybody have these hanging on their walls? I have one in every room of MY house. Not only that, but when I co-signed the mortgage on each of the kids homes, I insisted the kids put them up there, too.

    There’s not one honest bone in this guy’s body. Nothing he says means anything, his tweets are child-like, and his slogans are vacuous. What a low bar he’s set. Feh.

    What a strange thing to do.

    Not at all strange. And likely a fan / friend presented him with the work of art knowing the Donald would love it. Best of all, the Washington ComPost is scratching the bottom of the fake shmutz barrel and coming up empty. Nice.

    Seems strange to me. I do not hang self-aggrandizing things on the wall. I do not know anyone who does.
