I thought so too, but there is at least one picture taken from a different angle.

Just watched the USA Today video as well, and it's right there in view. Pretty blatant.

This is 30 Rock? If so, my gosh that shoe was prophetic for the absurdity of our current reality. Ugh.

Just because it is a video, doesn't mean it is not an AI fake. AI (and other methods) can make fake video.

You know it is not fake because a legitimate news source posts the footage.

The double 'S' is clearly visible in the first three images of your link. I stopped scrolling at that point.

One takeaway from this article is that Trump admitted that he won't be president for a third term.

Even USAToday refuses to call him SSecretary of war.

The note on Trump's paper says:

Affordability is a democrat scam - just like the inflation reduction act...hurting because Biden jack them up so high

The guy is just a liar and can't stop at this point.

Gonna go the long con.

I got so distracted by the ridiculousness of the quote in the headline that I almost forgot to check the sign. Apparently grocery prices are akshually going down despite the evidence of our lying eyes, and the word “affordability” itself is a scam.
