Time asks Trump Organization to remove fake cover from golf clubs
The Hill ^ | 6/27/17 | Olivia Beavers

Posted on 06/29/2017 4:25:25 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper

Time magazine has asked the Trump Organization to remove copies of a fake cover of President Trump that were on display at the company’s golf clubs, The Washington Post reported Tuesday afternoon.

The request came after the newspaper reported that at least four Trump-branded golf clubs had displayed a fake Time magazine cover that depicted Trump with the headline “Donald Trump: The ‘Apprentice’ is a television smash!”

The cover, dated March 1, 2009, was never published by the magazine at any point, a spokeswoman for Time confirmed.

can u believe Snopes has done a fact-check on this!!

in Australia, all major MSM, including taxpayer-funded ABC have carried the story, yet virulently anti-Trump ABC hasn’t even reported on the FakeNewsCNN resignations, or the Project Veritas CNN exposes.

I was hoping all the clever freeper photoshoppers would create fabulous & fake Time, Newsweek, Network TV pages on Trump, with headlines MSM should have published, but didn’t, on Trump’s many accomplishments since becoming President. c’mon folks. Trump might even print them out and post them all over his Golf Clubs.

Trump should agree to do it,....PROVIDED Time Magazine recalls and republishes all the Time issues with a fake (Photoshopped) picture of Trump on the front.

Plus, any and all "Fake News" stories they published about him.

“They should replace it with this cover :-)”

Good one! Trump’s triumph is the greatest political win of all time!

This is a trap - remember that President Trump is not supposed to have any role in running the Trump Organization now. He should not express any opinion on the matter, just ignore the POS media. I know, I know, hard for him to do.... but if he gives any impression of instructing the Trump Org. one way or the other, then suddenly THAT will become the issue the Mediascum freaks out about.

After the 2006 issue where the person of the year was “You!” with a mirror on the cover, how can they complain about anyone making that claim?

“Parody use is probably protected.”

Thats why they are all twisted in a knot. Trump does the same thing they do and they expect him to be impeached or jailed because of it. He laughs in their face!

Leftists are all bitter old hags inside with no sense of humor. It takes joy to laugh, leftism has none.

Exactly. There is a cottage industry out there where you can get your picture printed on a magazine cover with a customized headline. It's done all the time. My nephew recently got a Sports Illustrated cover with his picture on it for a birthday gift (he plays baseball).

Nobody takes that seriously. Everybody at my nephew's birthday party knew that he wasn't really on the cover of Sports Illustrated. It was all in good fun and I'm sure he has it framed and hanging on the wall in his house somewhere.

Of course, Trump was on the cover of TIME legitimately many times over the years. So why does he bother with making up yet more covers? Probably just to tweak and trigger certain people. And we all love him for it.

If he does it again they will have a TOTAL MELTDOWN.

One would hope that the President doesn't see the need to manufacture another fake magazine cover. I'm at a loss as to why he saw the need to create this one to begin with. Hasn't he legitimately been on the covers of enough magazines already?

Meanwhile, they publish fake news about Trump and pretend to be journalists.

Considering the subject perhaps now is not the time to talk about "fake news".

Nope. Word is, he’s had this around since 2009.

If so, sure is funny the fake news organizations and their sympathizers suddenly find this bad. People have been doing it for years.

But DJT does it and the whining commences.

“Time is basically a cover now as in no inside pages.”

The last issue of Time I looked at years ago was 64 pages with 24 pages of ads.
