President Trump Spotted Wearing An Earpiece

In all my years of watching and covering President Trump, I have hardly ever seen him wear an earpiece.

While speaking with African leaders on Wednesday, President Trump was spotted wearing an earpiece.

Now, before conspiracy theories start flying claiming that “Trump is receiving directions,” let’s get the facts straight.

The earpiece device was most likely used as a translator tool so he could understand what the leaders were saying.

Take a look:

Many of the African leaders with whom Trump spoke, besides Liberia, speak English as a second language, which results in heavy accents.

That’s why Trump noted that the leader of Liberia had such good English:

Trump to the President of Liberia: “Such good English. Where did you learn to speak so beautifully?”

In case you’re still not convinced, here’s Trump wearing a translation device while meeting with the former president of Argentina.

Watch here:

Trump was wearing the device out in the open; however, rumors have speculated that Biden and Harris secretly wore earpiece devices during their presidential debates with Trump.

Here’s what BBC reported on Biden’s alleged earpiece:

US President Donald Trump’s re-election campaign is running hundreds of Facebook advertisements pushing an unfounded conspiracy theory that Joe Biden cheated during the first US presidential debate.

The adverts show the Democratic Party challenger with an earpiece, and say that he refused to have his ears checked for devices prior to the debate.

The Biden campaign rejected the claims.

The Trump campaign adverts ask: “Why won’t Sleepy Joe commit to an ear test?” and “Who is in Joe’s ear?”

And don’t forget Harris:

Forbes had more on Harris’s alleged earpiece:

Trump claimed he was victorious in the debate during the start of Friday’s rally, saying Harris “offered American voters nothing but falsehoods” before claiming she used an earpiece that fed her advice in the debate—an unfounded claim pushed heavily after the debate by Trump allies.

Trump said he “heard [Harris] had something in the ear, a little something in the ear” and claimed she was told how to behave and respond to questions, echoing the claim spread by figures like Trump senior adviser Jason Miller and far-right media personality Laura Loomer, who Trump defended this week over a string of racist comments she recently made.

The difference between Trump and Biden/Harris is that Trump offers transparency!
