Why is Trump releasing videos on a Green Screen?

He's incredibly vain. He's showing videos that minimize the right side of his face, the squint. He's hiding something.

Sick of thinking about him and his tacky family, just want them gone so we can solve some problems.

It’s the whole damn GOP standing in the way of progress, not just those tacky grifters.

They worked on the convention, too.

I asked my friend who works in the film industry and he confirmed it's a green screen.

Hey Trumpers - I guess the New York Times is batshit crazy too, huh?

The implication is that he is either bed-bound or having severe fatigue - enough that he can't walk more than a few steps from his bed without physical aid and is afraid to go outside where his condition (or his oxygen tank) will be spotted.

Disagree. I think most people think the most likely reason to avoid video, especially unedited, is that he's having coughing spells.

NBD to most people, but Trump has overcommitted to the "I'm cured!!" narrative, even to the point he said he didn't even need the drugs to ckick it anyway, and that he was (IIRC) in perfect health. Coughing doesn't fit the narrative.

He had a respiratory virus. Yes, he probably does cough - crap, I cough for at least two weeks due to a reactive airway following the common cold. Some docs say cough can last for a month after a common cold, and that it's normal. I expect him to cough sometimes. Again, I'm listening to him on Hannity and he's been talking for the past 15 minutes, and I heard him stifle a cough ONCE. Hannity can't get a word in edgewise, and that's saying something!

Sure, and like I said, NBD (no big deal) to me or most people. But The Lincoln Project and others have been SAVAGE lately. (Did you see Schmidt's series of tweets?) I wouldn't be surprised that he doesn't want any video of him coughing. It would be looped and giffed to the max.

Hey, I don't care. But I don't think people in general are assuming he's bedbound or with severe fatigue. Maybe? But it's a lot less taxing to sit than stand regardless, and he can lay flat if he wants on the phone.

I think he pretty clearly is a narcissistic -- and edging on manic -- angry old man who can feel his house of cards collapsing around him. I would not blame him for not wanting to give any ammunition to his opponents. That's not only humna, it's smart.

I’d feel some sympathy for his bruised dignity if he didn’t boast about EVERYTHING.

Fastest recovery ever! Never seen anything like it! I’m not human! Feeling better than I did 20 years ago!!

It looks like it was breezy outside. I bet he didn’t want his hair to get messed up in the wind (his hair never moves but the trees behind him are going).

It is true that the past few days have been breezy in the DC area.

Hey, I was a teenager in the 80s. Grab this man a coupla cans of aquaNet, and that hair may never move again.

I was thinking he filmed this bit outside but in a quieter area, maybe Rose Garden? There wouldn't be wind, but there would be natural shadows, lighting etc. They could also edit out coughing or rest breaks. Then they greenscreened in the south lawn video clip because Trump wanted the image to look more powerful and have the viewer infer that Trump walked all that way out there.

^^the articles refuting the green screen weren't very convincing

So... it's a lie. What's the difference between filming him in his bathroom or the Rose Garden and then pretending it happened somewhere else?

It’s clearly and obviously a green screen.

Except that it’s not. The Twitter Resistance was flat-out wrong.

Prove it. Why didn’t anyone else see him? The South Lawn is easy to see from the street.

“Prove it”?? No, honey. People who make outrageous claims have to prove them - the burden’s on you. We’ll wait.
