The Watch 2 Fast 2 Furious Onlinestatement "President Trump has a big ego" is news to absolutely no one at this point. It was recently discovered the president even had a fake Timemagazine cover (featuring himself, of course) framed at several of his golf courses. But would he really go so far as to have the transcript of a White House Press Conference altered after the fact just to make him seem like a better golfer?
Unfortunately, the answer is not a resounding "no."
SEE ALSO: This Trump/Scaramucci supercut proves why they call him 'The Mooch'During last week's press conference announcing the appointment of Anthony Scaramucci as the new White House communications director, Scaramucci began his tenure by heaping praise on the president's surely giddy shoulders. Scaramucci proclaimed Trump could throw a football through a tire (?), and boasted that Trump "sinks three-foot putts. I don't see this guy as a guy that's ever under siege."
A weird string of praise, to be sure, but not unusual for this administration. That is until Daily Showproducer Matt Negrin pointed out that Scaramucci's original statement was later edited on the official White House transcript to make Trump's golf record ten timesmore impressive:
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
You read that right — the official White House transcript was changed to read that Trump "sinks 30-foot putts."
Naturally, the insanity of this was not lost on Twitter:
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
Now, to give the full benefit of every doubt, it is possiblethe change was made in error, and the addition of the extra zero was a typo. Mashablereached out to the White House for comment, but has not received a response.
Unfortunately, given the track record of this administration, a deliberate altering of the transcript seems well within the realm of possibility. Stranger things have happened.
