The Bedminster weekend gave the Trump family two very different photo mishaps. One made Trump look about ten years younger, while the other gave his six-year-old son a phantom limb.
The phantom limb is the one that really stands out. Eric Trump posted a carousel Monday documenting the family’s weekend at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster during the LIV Golf New York tournament, including a photo of his father sitting with Eric’s two children, 8-year-old Luke and 6-year-old Carolina.
Look closely and the image falls apart: a blurred patch by Trump’s left ear, another by Luke’s, and behind the boy, an extra foot resting on the ground that belongs to nobody in the frame.

It wasn’t long before people noticed.
Oh, Eric! Not even this you could pull off! The view through the window over his left shoulder doesn’t match the other windows…

It looks like he’s missing an ear. I thought it grew back?

Eric desperately wants people to think that Trump cares about his kids so he faked it. They probably weren’t even in the same room together. With the remnants of people behind the kids it looks like they were outside.

Eric really is a dumb one. Everyone knows daddy never sits lower than anybody else in a picture.

Eric hasn’t addressed any of it. The photo, foot and all, is still up.
While Eric’s picture picked up an extra limb, Trump’s own photo from the same weekend lost about a decade. He posted a shot riding a golf cart alongside 90-year-old Gary Player, captioned: “With the great Gary Player, today, at Bedminster!” His face looks noticeably smoother and younger than it has in recent public appearances.
Player, sitting inches away in the same frame, looks exactly like himself, which raises the obvious question of why the editing only ran in one direction.
With the great Gary Player, today, at Bedminster!

Trump has been down this road before. He’s shared fabricated Taylor Swift endorsement images, along with a long list of AI generated self portraits ranging from military uniforms to battlefield scenes.
