The old saying is “Never attribute to malice what can be attributed to stupidity”…

Of course with the GOP there is no shortage of either… but having Trump appear in front of a very ironically altered presidential seal was most likely not the work of some disgruntled intern- it was probably just another example of the GOPs ignorance and stupidity.

An employee for the conservative group Turning Point USA has reportedly been fired following an incident in which President Trump appeared in front of an altered presidential seal at an event hosted by the organization.

An unnamed Turning Point USA source told CNN that an audiovisual aide responsible for the seal has been dismissed. The source emphasized to the news network that there was “zero malicious intent” behind the image.

“We’re sorry for the mix-up and meant no disrespect to the White House or the president or the advance team,” the TPUSA source told CNN.

Turning Point USA did not immediately respond to a request for comment from The Hill.

Trump on Tuesday addressed a crowd of about 1,500 young conservatives during the group’s Teen Student Action Summit in Washington, D.C. As he walked on stage, a screen behind him displayed an altered presidential seal featuring a two-headed eagle — an image similar to that on Russia’s coat of arms — holding a set of golf clubs.

A banner also read “45 es un titere,” Spanish for “45 is a puppet,” The Washington Post noted. The image was interpreted as a jab at the president for his relationship with Moscow and his love of golf.
