So what we have here is a "Fake president elect" only question now is is the U.S. Constitution fake? Will the Supreme Court uphold & defend the Constitution? Guess we'll find out on Friday.

Was that seen on a better scan? I saw that on the original overcompressed JPEG image, and that is very typical of what JPEG compression does when a solid color (like text) bumps up against a color picture (like the certificate background). JPEG sucks at handling lineart causing all sorts of two dimensional "ringing" from the removal of high-frequency information in the image.
