The White House changed its LinkedIn page to display Donald Trump's image in place of the government seal, creating the appearance that past White House employees served under Trump. Several former officials rapidly updated their profiles to list the Executive Office of the President (EOP), which retains the official seal and logo. Step-by-step instructions for removing Trump's picture or switching affiliation circulated among alumni group texts. White House communications confirmed the change was intended to troll former officials, while LinkedIn said the alteration did not violate platform policies. The move links Trump's personal brand with the government office and exploits LinkedIn dynamics.
The intrigue: Several former White House officials told Axios that they quickly changed their affiliation from White House to the Executive Office of the President (EOP), which still has the official seal and logo. Step-by-step instructions explaining how remove Trump's picture or change the company affiliation to EOP were shared across White House alumni group texts, one source told Axios.
The White House has replaced the government seal with Trump's face in its LinkedIn profile. If you worked at the White House under a Democratic president or even another Republican president - and don't want Trump's face in your LinkedIn bio - just use Executive Office of the President instead.
If they spent half the time they spend trolling on lowering costs for Americans, they'd be onto something.
