DONALD Trump’s 2020 campaign have been accused of doctoring photos of Joe Biden to make him look older in their Facebook ads.
The ads brand Biden “Sleepy Joe” and depict him against a black background but allegedly use a filter to darken and desaturate the image to make the former VP appear older.
The ad campaign ran at the same time as a nearly identical campaign ran that did not alter the Democratic presidential candidate’s appearance, Huffington Post revealed.
The news emerged as Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen said he believes that the president will “start a war” to win the 2020 race.
This week, the disbarred attorney – who is currently under house arrest – told NBC that he thinks Trump “will do anything and everything within which to win.”
Nevertheless, Biden continues to top recent polls – but so too did Hillary Clinton before Trump’s 2016 victory.
Still, Republicans are hoping their man can pull off another dramatic win, while Democrats are looking to the former VP to make Trump a one-term president and turn Congress blue.
The coronavirus crisis and Black Lives Matter protests have added to the uncertainty of a political race that sharply divides the country.
