Texan Democrats are now officially the bitter ex-girlfriend that chops her ex out of all of her prom pictures.
This is BEYOND childish, folks.
I mean… what was their goal here?
Democratic Party members in Lubbock, Texas, have been getting blasted on Facebook for cropping First Lady Melania Trump out of a now-viral picture from Barbara Bush’s funeral.
The original photo features former presidents George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Obama — posing alongside Melania and first ladies Hillary Clinton, Laura Bush and Michelle Obama.

BAHAHAHA.
I crop pictures 100 times a day for this site.
Literally THOUSANDS of times a month. It’s a big part of prepping these posts.
I can tell you right now… you don’t “Accidentally crop someone out.”
That’s not a thing…
And even if it WERE a thing… wouldn’t you notice before you posted your “accidentally” cropped picture to Social Media?
Yes… yes you would. Because I doubt the Lubbock County Democrats have a blind person running their accounts. That would get pretty tricky.
I’m curious how someone accidentally crops?

‘Honest mistake’??? Lubbock Co. Democratic Party deliberatly took somebody else’s ‘historic’ photo and physically cropped it before publishing it in their post. I wonder how the photographer feels about it.

RIIIGHT. This “accidental” crop managed to get as much of Michele Obama as possible while leaving Melania entirely out.
Someone decided EXACTLY where to crop this picture. Again, I know this, because I crop CONSTANTLY to make my thumbnail images fit. You CHOOSE what stays in and what stays out.
This is so petty and dumb. The end.
