Trump Organization: Ivanka photo from Manila is several years old

The Trump Organization says a billboard promoting Trump Tower Manila featuring Ivanka Trump that surfaced recently is actually years old.

A photo of the promotional billboard went viral Sunday.

When reading the article above I was reminded of these immortal words:

There’s an old saying in Tennessee. I know it’s in Texas, probably in Tennessee, that says, fool me once, shame on…shame on you. Fool me…you can’t get fooled again.
― George W. Bush

Bush breaks with Trump, calls media ‘indispensable to democracy’

Former President George W. Bush said Monday that the media is “indispensable to democracy,” a break from the position of his fellow Republican, President Donald Trump, who has called the press “the enemy of the American people.”

“I consider the media to be indispensable to democracy. That we need the media to hold people like me to account,” Bush told Matt Lauer, anchor of NBC’s “Today” show. “I mean, power can be very addictive and it can be corrosive and it’s important for the media to call to account people who abuse their power, whether it be here or elsewhere.”
