Part of the GOP playbook is to always have a prominent Black person beside them when they're about to do their dirt. I read their document(s), once. It said: "Someone like a Muhammad Ali."
Notice at the launch of his first campaign, Trump had a barely mobile Jim Brown walking alongside him. Mike Tyson was with him the other day when they mentioned the firing squad nonsense.
I guess it's getting harder to find a willing Black figure, so they resorted to fakery, using Denzel, which isn't anything new. -------------------------------------------------

President Trump shared a screen grab of an X post which included a fabricated post from actor Denzel Washington in which the Training Day star claimed he has never met anyone "braver" or "smarter" than the former television presenter turned politician...with Denzel calling Trump "a great friend and an even better president, and professing to be a steadfast supporter of the president, and i'll never apologize for it. God Bless America and our president."...

But it's all fake and the White House knew it - they had to have known it was fake cuz they have all the means at their disposal to fact-check & verify shit before making it part of a White House official message.
My conspiracy mind says its all about the upcoming midterm elections and trying to confuse black voters etc etc. There.
