特朗普乘坐橡皮艇在洪水中“救人”的照片在网络上疯传。
海外网9月25日电 近日,一张美国总统特朗普乘坐橡皮艇在洪水中“救人”的照片在网络上疯传,美媒揭露了其中的真相,照片其实是P的。
照片中特朗普乘坐一艘橡皮艇在水上漂浮,他手里拿着一顶写着“让美国变得伟大”标语的红色帽子,并将帽子伸向被洪水围困的受害者。

《纽约时报》记者凯文·鲁斯在推特上“辟谣”。
这张照片在脸书上转载量高达27.5万次,《纽约时报》记者凯文·鲁斯(Kevin Roose)随即在推特上“辟谣”。他指出,这张照片是假的,照片是2015年在得克萨斯州中部拍摄的,当时特朗普还没有当选美国总统。
美国事实核查网站Snopes指出,在这么危险的洪水中,特朗普没穿救生衣,这不太可能。此外,总统一般不会亲自参加救灾行动,所以很容易鉴定这张照片是假的。

CNN网站上的原图。
美国《赫芬顿邮报》报道称,照片显然是经过编辑的。根据CNN网站上的原图可以看到,实际照片中是消防部门的救援人员在伸手帮助一名被洪水围困的男子。究竟是谁对这张照片进行了“后期加工”,美媒并没有提到。
报道指出,对于被洪水围困的人员,洪水已经没到他的腰间,递上一顶帽子,显然起不到任何帮助的作用,这张照片很可能只是想嘲讽特朗普政府。
特朗普政府应对飓风洪灾的表现一直备受争议。美国联邦领土波多黎各政府此前公布了一项数据,2017年9月袭击波多黎各的飓风“玛利亚”预计造成2975人死亡,而官方此前公布是死亡人数为64人,两个数字相差40多倍。美国政府善后救灾不力,致使波多黎各居民怨声四起。而特朗普却称政府应对飓风灾害时“做得非常出色”,他的言论随即引来批评不断。(编译/海外网 张敏)

Fake Photo Of Trump ‘Rescuing’ Flood Victims Goes Viral
The edited pic shows the president handing a MAGA hat to someone clinging to a fence.

An edited photo that appears to show President Donald Trump floating in a raft, extending a red Make America Great Again hat to a flood victim, has gone viral in the wake of Hurricane Florence.
As New York Times reporter Kevin Roose pointed out on Twitter, the pic is a fake ― it was taken in Central Texas in 2015, long before Trump was elected president, and he definitely wasn’t in that raft.
Still, that hasn’t stopped people from sharing the photo more than 275,000 times on Facebook since it was first uploaded on Sept. 16, 2017, according to RawStory.

The original photo ― which can be found on CNN’s website ― actually depicts three rescuers with the Austin Fire Department reaching out to help a man clinging to a chain-link fence.
Snopes pointed out that it’s fairly easy to figure out that the photo is a fake because Trump isn’t wearing a life vest ― unlikely during a dangerous flood ― and presidents generally do not personally take part in rescue operations after disasters.
And though the president has actually thrown paper towels at hurricane victims, you could argue that a MAGA hat isn’t the most helpful thing to offer a person stranded in waist-high water.
Roose said he couldn’t figure out why Facebook would allow such an obviously fake photo on its platform.

Others lamented that people might believe the photo captured a real event.

How will Trump's administration impact you?





But the photo might just be an attempt to lampoon the Trump administration. And it probably won’t be going away any time soon.

Did President Trump Assist Rescuers in Pulling Hurricane Victims from Floodwaters?

CLAIM

A photograph shows President Donald Trump reaching out to rescue a Harvey flooding victim.
RATING

False





ORIGIN

In the days following Hurricane Harvey, which caused catastrophic flooding in southeast Texas in late August 2017, an image began circulating online that appeared to show President Donald Trump leaning over the side of a raft, reaching out to a stranded flood victim.

Tellingly, the President is pictured wearing a suit and no life vest — an unlikely scenario in a dangerous flood. Presidents also generally do not personally take part in rescue operations after disasters.
The image, unsurprisingly, was digitally altered. The original can be found on CNN’s web site and actually depicts three rescuers with the Austin Fire Department reaching out to help a man clinging to a chain link fence out of the water:

The original incident did not even take place during Hurricane Harvey in 2017. Instead, the image captures a rescue that occurred in the aftermath of flooding in Central Texas in 2015, before Donald Trump was elected president.
