People point out major issue as Trump shares scathing post with 'proof' that father deported to 'world's worst prison' is a criminal

President Donald Trump has shared 'evidence' that the father sent to El Salvador is a criminal, but pictures don't appear to match up

President Donald Trump has shared 'proof' that the father accidentally deported to El Salvador is a member of a gang.

Kilmar Armando Ábrego García, of Maryland, was one of more than 250 alleged criminals sent to the Center for Terrorism Confinement (CECOT), which is considered to be the 'world's worst prison', last month.

Despite the Trump administration admitting that an 'admin error' was to blame for Garcia being flown to the Central American country, the 78-year-old Republican president is adamant that García is a member of the MS-13 gang.

Taking to Truth Social he shared a picture of himself holding a photo of what he claims to be García's hand, with the caption: "This is the hand of the man that the Democrats feel should be brought back to the United States, because he is such 'a fine and innocent person'.

"They said he is not a member of MS-13, even though he’s got MS-13 tattooed onto his knuckles, and two Highly Respected Courts found that he was a member of MS-13, beat up his wife, etc. I was elected to take bad people out of the United States, among other things.

"I must be allowed to do my job. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!"

However, the 'evidence' he has supplied to justify the 'admin error' that led to García being incarcerated at CECOT appears to be a spoof - with the writing 'M S 1 3' allegedly 'tattooed' on his knuckles appearing to possibly be the work of photoshop.

If you look closely at the hand, the writing isn't faded compared to the other symbols and writing on his hand, and is much clearer.

Meanwhile, a photograph shared of García by the President of El Salvador, Nayib Bukele, depicts his hand without 'M S 1 3' tattooed on it.

Bukele wrote: "Kilmar Abrego Garcia, miraculously risen from the 'death camps' & 'torture,' now sipping margaritas with Sen. Van Hollen in the tropical paradise of El Salvador!"

Taking to Twitter, one user posted a picture of the alleged criminal's hand, accompanied with: "MS13 was photoshopped on his hand. Ladies and gentlemen… the President of the United States: a felon using false 'evidence.'"

While another typed: "I call bulls***. The MS13 on his hand isn't even a tattoo. Thats old school photoshop."

With a third adding: "Trump photoshopped MS13 on his hand wtf is going on!? It’s like Wag the Dog but without the secrecy!"

Former Minnesota state senator, Linda Higgins wrote: “Hey Old Man, @realDonaldTrump, have someone teach you about Photoshop. This is an excellent example of altering a photo, in this case to make your illegal actions look good. But instead you look foolish.”

UNILAD has contacted the White House for comment.
