On July 24, 2019, U.S. President Donald Trump delivered a speech at an event hosted by the young conservative group Turning Point USA. As pictures and videos of the speech started to circulate on social media, some keen-eyed observers noticed something appeared to be off with the presidential seal displayed on the wall behind him:
While the seal in the above-displayed photograph may look official at first glance, this is actually a manipulated version of the official symbol. For instance, it features a two-headed eagle similar to Russia’s coat of arms, golf clubs instead of arrows, and the phrase “45 es un titere,” which translates to “45 is a puppet,” instead of the motto of the United States “e pluribus unum” or “out of many, one.”
Several photographs of Trump with this fake presidential seal are available via Getty Images.

Are young conservatives trolling Trump or are they just stupid?
