Is there any proof this photo was *stolen*..could the family have sent it to Trump saying they support him and he used it?

Not jumping to conclusions here.
It came from this guy.

Who appears to not be as some posters have described "Trump's KKK Nationalists." Its not from Trump's campaign.
Odds are its a Stock Photo. No stealing going on.

He appears to be a black Trump Supporter. Lots of Pro Trump stuff on his page.

Tons of pictures including the original tweet he sent to Trump

So far this DRAMA has turned out to be a possibly black Trump supporter sent Trump a Tweet with a Stock Family photo in it and graphics saying families for Trump.

In other words.

BS Flag still stands. No acknowledgement its from Trump. and no tweet link backing it to Trump. False flag stuff

It came from this guy.

No. Not a stock photo, it came from here:

http://www.wcpo.com/news/local-news/hamilton-county/cincinnati/photos-midwest-black-family-reunion-at-swayer-point

(Note at the bottom of the page - “Copyright 2015 Scripps Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.”)

Yes, it was posted originally by Don_Vito_08 to @realDonaldTrump. But then Trump re-tweeted it to his own status.


https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/739076562876829696

Don_Vito_08 pinched the photo, possibly in violation of Scripps Media’s copyright and passing it off as the family being Trump supporters.  But now that it is known where the photo came from, Trump should remove the Tweet. But I bet he won’t.

Trump should be a bit more careful about what and who he re-tweets.

http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/gop-primaries/276919-trump-retweets-another-apparent-white-supremacist

Oh and Don_Vito_08 appears to have been the source for this infamous tweet that Trump re-tweeted, took down and then re-tweeted again.

And some people wonder why…..

You seem to excuse everything Trump does.  If he doesn't know if this family supports him, it's deceptive advertising.  Speculation on Twitter is that the "Don_Vito_08" twitter account belongs to Eric Trump.

I Am Not A Lawyer, but it seems it would be appropriation, if nothing else.

The sad part, he tweeted that three hours ago and hundreds of people responded about it being a fake, stolen image and he still hasn't removed it.

Great looking family but one wonders if they would be upset or flattered that Donald 'used' them.  I hope upset, but who knows.

Donald thinks he can do anything and get by with it and during the primary season, that seemed to be the case.  He even bragged about it.

Nothing.

What do you mean by 'stock' photo?  Was that a photo for free release to anyone or not. 

Example:  If I post a family picture on Facebook, does that give anyone the right to use it in any context.

I doubt if Trump would want to use it, but if he did, I would be seriously ticked off.

Since it's been demonstrated that thia was a news photo likely unsercopyright with no royalty paid to the holder, are you willing to admit that if that turns out to be true, Donald Trump has a tenuous regard for the truth, and should be nowhere near the levers of power of our nation?

Odds are is a Stock photo of a family. If they were white this would not even be discussed. It looks like a black Trump fan tweeted it to him. So why should he do anything? The Racists are the people trying to make something out of it when there is nothing there.

Sorry but that has not been demonstrated. That's been alleged by TDS people only. When you get proof the original sender did not have authority to use it get back to us.
