... and obligingly, along comes Chelsea Clinton.
Chelsea Clinton Hopes MAGA Hat on Pic of Lincoln Is Photoshopped

Chelsea Clinton is 37 years old - 19 years past the minimum voting age, 16 years over the legal age to drink, no longer entitled to reflexive press protection as the daughter of a Democratic President or presidential candidate, and thus eligible for ridicule when she deserves it - even if the establishment media's gatekeepers don't like it. I'd suggest that if you really have to ask, as Chelsea Clinton did, if a "Make America Great Again" hat seen on a rendering of Abe Lincoln on the cover of a Republican Party dinner program has been "photoshopped," you deserve every bit of the ridicule coming your way.
What triggered this proud graduate of Stanford with a masters degree from Oxford, was something reporter Andrew Lofholm at WPTV in West Palm Beach, Florida tweeted from a Republican Lincoln Day Dinner:
Lofholm's report from the event, with accompanying video, is here.
An alarmed Chelsea Clinton tweeted the following [hat tip to The Blaze]:
This was too good for the snark brigade on Twitter to resist. Some good-natured comments, considering the circumstances (many others unfortunately not), have included the following (minor revisions made for punctuation, capitalization and spelling):
"No, this is the exact hat Lincoln was wearing when he signed the Emancipation Proclamation. People forget that."
"Nope, Lincoln was wearing that exact hat at the Theater."
"Nope, they found a picture of Lincoln wearing a MAGA hat from the nineteenth century. No photoshop needed."
"I remember this photo was taken at the 1856 Republican National Convention and is real."
"It's as real as those Bosnian snipers." ...
ROTFLMAO!
