Overview
- The circulated image claimed President Trump called the Toronto Blue Jays “un-American,” said the team was trying to “steal” the World Series, and declared they would not be invited to the White House.
- The Canadian Press found no such message on Trump’s Truth Social feed and no capture on archive.today for the alleged post.
- The White House told The Canadian Press that Trump had not posted anything about the Blue Jays.
- The earliest share identified by The Canadian Press came from a humor account, Andy Bowers (@evilpez4) in Nova Scotia, which has previously posted edited satirical screenshots.
- The fake spread across Threads, X, Facebook, and Instagram around the Blue Jays’ division-clinching moment, underscoring how parody content can be mistaken for authentic posts.
