Trump's belief in doctored 'MS-13' image suggests frail mental state [View all]

President Donald Trump cited an obviously doctored image of tattoos on the hand of Maryland man Kilmar Abrego Garcia to justify the administration’s decision to abduct and deport the father of two.

Trump made the argument on Monday during an interview with ABC News’ Terry Moran on Trump’s 100th day in office.

“They look, and on his knuckles, he had ‘MS-13,’” Trump said, referring to a doctored photo of Abrego Garcia that he and his team have circulated, while alleging that the man is a part of the MS-13 gang.

Moran noted that the photo does not show conclusive proof that Abrego Garcia is a member, and Trump angrily pushed back.
