Donald Trump has shared a fabricated endorsement from Hollywood star Denzel Washington, claiming the actor considers the US president 'braver' and 'smarter' than anyone he has ever met, only for Washington's representative to confirm that the glowing praise was fake.
Trump posted the alleged endorsement on his Truth Social account on Monday, 12th October, amplifying a social media claim that portrayed the two-time Oscar winner as a devoted supporter of his presidency. The post featured an image of a purported Washington statement describing Trump as 'a great friend and an even better president.'
