Nice image of a potato-quality image: looks like they were going for maximum blur. No alt text either. Peak inaccessibility. 😙🤌
Another fearsome member of the MSPaint gang.
I guess the government is now so efficient they can’t even afford artists.
It’s simple, mate, it’s symbolic.

3kull … Is a skull making the :3 face
I made and sold thousands of fake IDs with Adobe Photoshop in the late 1990s. This is shitty work. It would be so easy to fade and blur the M S 1 3 to match the tattoos he really has and the resolution of the photo. This looks like a 14 year old spent 10 minutes on it. If you bought one of my IDs while visiting Hawaii when you were a teenager, you’re welcome.
I honestly thought this was a superimposed analysis of what they think his actual tattoos mean. Not that I was supposed to believe the actual letters were there…
Musk probably did it on this phone in a meeting and Trump wanted it printed out so he could show people. This really is the worst timeline.
they weren’t trying to fake it, the people who put that on were trying to label the symbols… in the less blurry version underneath the tattoos are the words “marijuana, smiley, cross, skull”…
trump is actually just stupid enough to believe that the obvious labels are real tattoos….
i thought he was somewhat playing dumb before but he’s actually full blown retarded.(sorry for the r-word but it fits so well here)
All the posts I see of this have a really terrible version. It’s even more obvious on a less compressed version.
Huh? It doesn’t look like they’re trying to say the text itself is the tattoo, it looks like they’re trying
Oh, come on! That looks so fake. It’s ok, I found the real photo before it was edited, though:
Ok, ok. You got me. And by me I mean the person I stole this image from.
I mean BOUGHT. Legally. Damnit now I’m gonna get deported.
Huh? It doesn’t look like they’re trying to say the text itself is the tattoo, it looks like they’re trying to say the tattoos mean MS-13. The blurry stuff below the tattoos seems to be explaining that it’s Marijuana for M, smile for S, and some other explanation for why a cross and skull are a 1 and 3, but it’s too blurry for me to see. It’s bullshit, but it’s not so blatantly obviously made up as superimposed text on a picture of a dude’s hand being passed off as a tattoo.
That was the purpose, but Trump misinterpreted it and thought it was actually part of the tattoo and doubled down on it.
I’m 50% sure he did that on purpose so his followers can see how stupid everyone who disagrees with Trump is for not understanding it’s about the symbols.
This is the quote:
“That was photoshopped? Terry, you can’t do that,” Trump said during the ABC special marking his 100th day in office Tuesday. “He had ‘MS-13’ tattooed. Terry . . . Terry. Do you want me to show you the picture?”
OP has the picture Mango Mussolini is referencing.
That is not even the whole quote. The rest of it makes it even more clear as he insists it is “the letter m, the letter s, the number 1, the number 3”.
That’s not Photoshop. It’s Word.
I haven’t seen his finger tattoos until just now, and it’s blatantly obvious that MS13 is MS Paint’ed on. Even a small child wouldn’t be fooled.
But what I don’t get are those words below the pictures. Surely that is too small to write legibly as a tattoo, so they must also be photoshopped? Especially because they are a slightly different color and aren’t lined up correctly.
I’m trying to read the words… “Marijuana” “Smiley” “Cross” and probably “Skull”. So, that would be MSCS, not MS13. That means that he has a Master of Science in Computer Science degree, I think. Just like me.
I don’t know where they got the numbers from. A cross isn’t a “1”. If anything, it’s a “t”. Maybe if we could see around the edge, we’d see something that starts with K, and it just turns out that he’s a fan of MST3K.
The cope is that the cross and skull are “cover up” tattoos to hide the fact that he was in the gang. The 1 was turned into a cross and the 3 was covered up by the skull. It’s a huge reach, but at least it’s not as stupid as believing that the MS13 text is real.
The text below it is also added over the picture to explain how the tats were supposed to represent MS13 but the picture has been jpg’d to death
The cope is that the cross and skull are “cover up” tattoos to hide the fact that he was in the gang.
That brings up two things.
First, if you’re covering up gang tattoos, I’m pretty sure that means you’re not in the gang. The claim was that he was a gang member. If he’s not a current gang member, and has committed no gang crimes domestically, and has no extradition request to El Salvador, then all of their phoney baloney reasons don’t even hold up on their own.
But second, even if you don’t accept that he must not be in MS13, then like you said, it’s ridiculous to think that the skull is a cover up for a 3. Looking around the rest, we can see that there is no cover up for the “S”. It’s just a smile. The “M” doesn’t look like a cover up, either. So, what they’re asking us to believe is that he had a tattoo that said “marijuana”, “smile”, “1”, “3”, and despite still being in the gang, covered up the “1” and the “3”. As if the thing he supposedly covered up wasn’t cryptic enough. He must have suddenly just become paranoid.
So in the first case, it’s impossible to believe that they have a good reason to think he’s in MS13. And in the second case, it’s impossible to believe that they have a good reason to think that he’d cover up his tattoo.
I think any reasonable person would look at this picture and see it as evidence fabricated after the fact to hide that he was the victim of a crime by the federal government.
Not gonna lie… i’m such a 90s guy, my brain immediately went to Wingdings for those tats…
The words below are all in perfectly straight lines, like they were inserted with a text tool.
Text below was shopped in and the whole photo got blurred/ compressed at some point before the ms13 was shopped in
It’s always looked to me that the MS123 and the words below were added my someone to explain how the pictures - the actual tattoos - mean MS13 (i.e., Marijuana = ‘M’ etc.)., but some people, including our president, are too stupid to recognize that.
it’s a 'shop. for sure.
but i think it’s just a very poor placement of the government’s interpretation of the four individual tattoos, which should have been a separate call-out box that left the photograph itself unaltered.
So are these tattoos supposed to actually mean anything. On their own it seems like dude likes pot, smiles, God, and death/Halloween?
The most “worrisome” one to people would be death, but being that the cross is a symbol of where people crusified gods messenger, maybe that is more worrisome. Does someone have a reference to where these claims came from to bring a gang?
I’m getting a finger tattoo instead of a tattoo of a wedding ring. Am I in MS-13, too?
All MAGAts should be written down as a total loss. This has been obvious since 2015.
“Super”
It may have been put on with a typewriter. Photoshop is pretty advanced technology…
