If you had watched the movie you would have known that the date on the newspaper that the picture was from predates Trump meeting Cohn. It will only cost you $2 on YouTube.

Instead you chose to continually act like a retard.

The Photograph: The specific photograph of Roy Cohn and Donald Trump at a social event (likely a party at Le Club in June 1979, per Getty Images metadata for similar photos) is a genuine historical document of their association. The documentary used many archival photos and footage from Cohn's personal collection to build its narrative.

"Not THAT blue!"

It came from a Vanity Fair article

Sometimes, finding a title is the hardest thing about making a film. For Matt Tyrnauer, on this occasion, it was the easiest. “Never before has a sitting president delivered a film title for me,” he told me. During the first month of Robert Mueller’s investigation into Donald Trump’s alleged corruption, in a moment of frustration with the legal and public-relations walls that seemed to be closing in on him,  no spam  to his White House advisers: “Where’s my Roy Cohn?!”Watching Tyrnauer’s new documentary about Cohn, which premieres in competition at Sundance today, it’s easy to pinpoint what a young Donald Trump was yearning for back in January 2018: a ruthlessness that somehow came off as charming, a toughness punctuated with a wink at supporters and a jab at detractors, a commitment to getting one’s way no matter what. And what did Roy Cohn, the notoriously malicious lawyer most infamous for helping Senator Joseph McCarthy carry out the Red Scare, see in Trump?“I think he saw an up-and-comer, a tall, blond, handsome rich kid, to whom he was always attracted as a short and unattractive, albeit brilliant, frustrated person,” explained Tyrnauer. “And he had a long track record of befriending the handsome scions of certain privileged families in the world that he inhabited.”For Tyrnauer, a Vanity Fair contributing editor whose previous documentaries include Valentino: The Last Emperor, Studio 54, and Scotty and the Secret History of Hollywood, Where’s My Roy Cohn? was born in two parts.

That's where it was taken.. not where the photo came from.

I tried to investigate Black Vegetable Rabbit hole of the Getty Collection.  I didn't get below the surface.  But I believe him.

Vanity Fair cropped the original photo from the movie.

The photo originally was published in The Times in June of 1972.

The picture came from a newspaper front page shown in the movie, VF cropped the photo and claimed it was Trump, no one had ever made the claim prior to the VF article.

And BV is claiming to know more than us about the origination of the image.  You are claiming it was photoshopped?

If I have to choose Cedar, and it is good to see you stop in, I am sticking with BV.

So it could be in the Getty Collection?

Are we debating if it is Trump or not? When I zoomed in on facial recognition AI said it was likely Trump.

Ask yourself who must be wrong for Cheddy to be right?

What is "The Times"?

Why is the image reproduced in color?


Where did you suddenly find this?

Unbelievable. How many God damn times are you going to make an *** out of yourself over this? This has already been addressed. AI already told you that VF never verified it. They are allowed to caption anything they want without verification. Hell, they can say it is Blackvegetable if they wanted.

God you are so **** stupid.
