Trump shares fake photo of Harris with Diddy in now-deleted Truth Social post
The former president has shared numerous fake images, including AI-generated ones, attacking Harris.
The image, which Trump reposted to his Truth Social profile, is an edited version of a 2001 photo of Harris with former talk show host Montel Williams, whom she briefly dated, and his daughter Ashley. The edit replaced Montel Williams’ face with a photo of Combs.
This is not the first time the Republican presidential nominee has posted a fake image in an effort to bolster his campaign. Trump has posted several AI-generated images, including some falsely depicting
Taylor Swift and her fans endorsing him, and one of Harris
speaking to a crowd of communists in Chicago during the Democratic National Convention.
The Harris campaign declined to comment. The Trump campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Combs was
arrested on Monday. He was
indicted on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution. The indictment came after
months of lawsuits filed against the rap music mogul. Cassie, a singer and Combs’ former girlfriend, sued Combs in November 2023,
alleging physical abuse and rape. Combs denied Cassie’s claims and the two
reached a settlement shortly after the lawsuit was filed.
The indictment detailed “freak offs,” which prosecutors said were hours-long and days-long sex acts in which
Combs allegedly forced victims to perform. Prosecutors alleged that some of these acts involved commercial sex workers and the use of narcotics to keep victims
“obedient and compliant.”
