FACT CHECK: Digitally Altered Image Shows Hillary Clinton Holding Anti-Trump Shirt
A photo shared on Facebook allegedly shows Hillary Clinton holding up a shirt in opposition of former President Donald Trump.
Verdict: False
The photo is digitally altered. The original image was posted to X by Clinton, the unedited shirt showing the text “nasty woman” instead of an anti-Trump sentiment.
Fact Check:
Clinton issued a warning that she believes the environment will be negatively impacted if Trump wins the 2024 presidential election, according to Newsweek. She made a post on the subject to X, including a link to an article from scientific website Carbon Brief predicting that Trump would “could add 4 (billion tons) of U.S. emissions by 2030,” the outlet reported.
A Facebook photo appears to show Clinton smiling while holding up a black shirt that says “NOPE not again” against an American flag background. The “O” in “NOPE” is a stylized depiction of Trump’s hair and a red tie.
“Well said no more trump,” the caption reads. “I love this shirt.” The Facebook user included a link to buy the shirt.
The photo is digitally altered, however. It was originally posted to Clinton’s X account in 2017 and instead shows a black shirt with the words “nasty woman.” (RELATED: No, Hillary Clinton Did Not Say ‘We Created Al-Qaeda’ In 2011)
