There are many websites out there mimicking news websites by posting fake news. One of those websites is nationalreport.net. They have posted a story where Trump paints himself into a corner, stating that he painted himself in the oval office.

Photo Tips for the Newbies All photos taken by Joy Singleton at Limestone College 1.

Do not ever use other colors unless it is on a dark background, otherwise, use white instead of black.  They also do not want advertisers to use their sites buttons such as the cart or the subscribe and save unless approved.  https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/G/01/AdvertisingSite/pdfs/AmazonBrandUsageGuidelines.pdf
