There’s a reason why the Trump men keep getting flagged on Twitter. Eric Trump, taking after his pappy, shared a doctored photo of 50 Cent and Ice Cube wearing “Trump 2020” hats.
Eric shared the photo, referring to the two legendary rappers as “great” and “courageous” Americans, insinuating that they were brave for supporting Donald Trump in the upcoming election while the majority of the celebrity elite tend to vote Democrat. In other words, it’s quite frowned upon for celebrities, especially Black celebrities, to support Trump and it’s clear Eric Trump is aware of this.
The only problem is, the picture was not from a Trump rally and the hats they were wearing were not Trump hats.
And to be honest, while 50 Cent recently encouraged others to vote for Trump after sharing a report on Joe Biden’s proposed tax plan, 50 nor Ice Cube have not given an actual endorsement.
Matter of fact, Ice Cube has taken to multiple platforms to explain why he recently worked with the Trump campaign for the development of the Platinum Plan and how it was not an endorsement.
Needless to say, Twitter flagged Eric’s tweet as “Manipulated media” to warn people that the image was fake.
Eric Trump eventually deleted the doctored photo after being loud and wrong, but not before Cube caught wind of the post, to which he simply replied, “N***a please.”
With the presidential election only a few weeks away, it will be interesting to see how the sharing of fake news and information by the Trumps will play out.
