news18.com

A viral photo allegedly showing Donald Trump kissing aide Natalie Harp is unverified, with online users citing visual anomalies suggesting AI generation or digital manipulation. Social media flagged details like an apparent six-fingered hand, misplaced golf clubs, and a missing ear scar, arguing the image was AI-created and blurred to hide flaws. No credible evidence confirms the photo’s authenticity. Trump and Harp have been photographed together on real occasions, including a recent Ireland trip, but the disputed image remains unauthenticated, with claims based solely on user-generated content.
