Donald Trump supporters created artificial intelligence images showing the former president being hugged by black people, a demographic that Republicans continue to struggle to court.

A shocking new report from BBC Panorama shows that one of Trump’s least prominent supporters, Florida-based radio host Mark Kaye, admits to creating the fake image.

‘I’m not a photojournalist. I’m not out there taking pictures of what’s really happening. “I’m a storyteller,” Kaye said. the BBC.

The network shared two of the images created by AI, one showing Trump smiling and hugging a group of black women. That image was created by Mark Kaye and his team, the BBC reports.

Another showed Trump in front of a house with a group of young black men. The photograph spread on social networks, generating thousands of likes.

The story attached to the image claims that Trump was passing by a house in his motorcade and asked to go out to meet the men. The BBC reports that the photo is fake.

“At first it looks real, but on closer inspection, everyone’s skin is too shiny and fingers are missing on their hands – some telltale signs of AI-created images,” reads a section of the BBC report.

‘I’m not claiming it’s accurate. I’m not saying, “Hey, look, Donald Trump was at this party with all these African American voters. Look how much they love him,” Kaye continued.

“If someone votes one way or another for a photo they see on a Facebook page, it’s that person’s problem, not the post itself.”

The person who created the image of Trump with young black men, identified only as Shaggy from Michigan, apparently blocked a BBC reporter when asked about the images.

“(My posts) have attracted thousands of wonderful, kind-hearted Christian followers,” Shaggy said before blocking the reporter. The post has 1.3 million views.

On Monday, Trump, who supports super PAC MAGA Inc., will launch an ad campaign targeting Black voters in Georgia, Michigan and Pennsylvania.

This is not Trump’s first fight with AI. Last month, he accused nefarious operators of using AI to make him look overweight while he played golf.

‘The fake news used artificial intelligence (AI) to create the image. “They are despicable people, but everyone knows it,” Trump criticized.

‘The other photos are of me hitting golf balls today to show the difference. Unfortunately, in our country, all there is is fake news!’

Just as Donald Trump was fined $355 million in a New York court on Friday, the former president posted photos on his Truth Social that made him look fat.

The post, which showed a photo of Trump with a belly, was accompanied by three others showing a slimmed-down Donald, and came at exactly the same time that the judge in his case in New York, Judge Arthur F. Engoron, was broadcasting his failure. .

However, further investigation reveals that the image is not AI at all, but rather a Photoshopped image of 57-year-old golf cult hero and long-time Trump supporter John Daly in an image taken in 2017. .

While on the other side of the aisle, AI-generated robocalls were sent to New Hampshire voters in January in which Joe Biden’s voice could be heard telling people not to vote because the primaries were a “bunch of nonsense.” and added “save your vote for the November elections.”

Trump’s difficulties connecting with black voters date back to his first campaign in 2016.

In February, Trump claimed that his four criminal indictments would make him popular among black voters because they see him as a victim of discrimination, comparing his legal jeopardy to the historical legacy of anti-black bias in the American legal system.

African American supporters, including Terrence Williams, Angela Stanton and Diamond and Silk, pray with Trump in the Cabinet Room of the White House in February 2020.

In 1989, Trump took out full-page newspaper ads calling on New York to reinstate the death penalty when five black and Latino teenagers were set to stand trial for beating and raping a white woman in Central Park. The young people were exonerated

Trump maintains that he is a victim of political persecution, although there is no evidence that Biden or White House officials influenced the filing of 91 felony charges against him.

“I was impeached for nothing, for something that is nothing,” Trump told black conservatives in South Carolina.

“And a lot of people said that’s why black people like me, because they’ve been so hurt and discriminated against, and they actually saw me as if they were being discriminated against.” “It’s been pretty surprising, but possibly, maybe, there’s something there.”

Republicans face an uphill battle to court black voters, who overwhelmingly support the Democratic Party. And although Black voters’ enthusiasm for Biden has cooled over the past year, only 25 percent of Black Americans said they had a favorable opinion of Trump, according to an AP poll conducted in December.

Trump has a long history of stoking racial tensions. Since his early days as a real estate developer in New York, Trump has faced accusations of racist business practices.

In 1989, he took out full-page newspaper ads calling on New York to reinstate the death penalty when five black and Latino teenagers were to stand trial for beating and raping a white woman in Central Park.

The five men were finally exonerated in 2002 after another admitted to the crime and it was determined that their confessions were obtained under duress.

He spent years spreading the lie that Obama was ineligible to hold office. When he was president, Trump mocked the “shithole countries” of Africa and said four congresswomen of color should return to the “broken, crime-infested” countries they came from, ignoring the fact that all women are citizens. Americans and three were born in the United States.
