Trump made Fake Images with AI of him with Black supporters.

WASHINGTON — At first glance, images circulating online showing former President Donald Trump surrounded by groups of Black people smiling and laughing seem nothing out of the ordinary, but a closer look is telling.

Odd lighting and too-perfect details provide clues to the fact they were all generated using artificial intelligence.

After reading through the article,I went to take a look and try to locate these so called "fake images" put out by trump and his administration. while I did find AI photos of trump with black supporters, I was also able to find an article on NBC news. In this article were quotes from the trump administration claiming "The only ones using AI to meddle in an election are President Trump’s opponents. The Trump Campaign has absolutely nothing to do with these AI images. Nor can we control what other people create and post.” While we cant be 100% sure wether the trump administration is being truthful, im going to have to take their words until any further evidence is shown.

I reviewed the article you linked and can verify the quotes you use to factcheck the claim. Nice job finding a legitimate source from a valid news network. I think you make a good point for doubting the Trump Administration's word while also being wise that there's nothing else we can counter-argue with till more evidence is found.
