Trump tweeted a patriotic image of his face over the American flag and Nazi SS soldiers with the tagline "We need real leadership." Not surprising for a candidate who doesn't fact check anything.

Let's analyze this for a minute. Someone in the Trump camp decided it was a good idea for Trump's mug to be superimposed on a US flag with the following 3 images:

A wad of cash.
The White House.
Nazi stormtroopers

It's almost as if he is intentionally trying to sabotage the GOP primaries.

Does he tweet on his own, or does he have a crazy social media intern or horrid PR firm? Shouldn't somebody offer him an honest feedback on his twitter ideas?

He needs to learn from his experience. The last time he tweeted without thinking, he inadvertently got on the cartel's hit list. Oops.

The funniest thing of all is they Germans are not only Waffen SS, they are geezer re-enactors.

So someone on his team either paid for or stole a copyrighted stock image.

Even if it was not Nazis - what's with the wad of cash and marching off to war theme? Some sort of right wing wet dream?

Clearly, pandering to the Dubya/Cheney/Neocon fans with a clear message.

If he paid for it then it's not mistake.
