It’s part of the presidential seal, created long before the Nazis.

It’s part of Nancy Pelosi’s seal. But they’d never do an article about her like that.

The problem is not just that they want to attack Trump, the problem is also that they’re so ignorant of American history and easily manipulated.
Clarification: The claim that Trump 2020 has put out a T-shirt with a symbol similar to a Nazi eagle and is being criticized for it is true. Worth noting, the eagle is a longtime US symbol, too.

“Worth noting,” unreal.
