Dear Trump supporters,
This is a real photograph. NOT a fake. The photographer is Kim Kyung-Hoon. The news agency is @Reuters. Reuters was founded in 1851. You know almost a hundred years before Trump. They are a news agency. Not the ghost and goblins deep state. THIS HAPPENED. pic.twitter.com/5HpJ923YuU
