Trump's campaign team posts a photo from an airplane: First nobody notices - then allegations follow

After Donald Trump's landslide victory in the Iowa primary, a photo of Trump's campaign team sparked laughter and accusations online.

• A picture of Trump's campaign team caused a stir after the Iowa election on Twitter .
• The reason for this was not apparent to anyone.
• A Democratic politician even made allegations against the Republicans .

Des Moines - While the Iowa primaries became a real disaster for the Democrats, President Trump and his campaign team celebrated the expected landslide victory. The incumbent, who ran without a serious increase in opponents, received almost 97 percent of the vote in Iowa, paving the way early for his candidacy in the presidential election in November this year.

Accordingly, Donald Trump's campaign team went on a return trip from Iowa to Washington . Campaign team spokesman Tim Murtaugh posted an image on Twitter on Wednesday showing Trump supporters on the plane on their way home.

Trump's campaign team posted a picture from the plane - initially no one notices

The election campaign team of the US President is in a good mood in line with the election results and proudly wears the now almost iconic peaked cap with the white inscription: "Keep Iowa great". Alluding to Trump's campaign motto for the 2016 presidential election "Make America great again".

Record turnout for an incumbent president.

So much winning.

Didn't have time to pay attention, so how'd it go for the Democrats?

Even if a short glance at the plane snapshot does not immediately reveal anything special, a US comedian, a journalist and also a member of the Democrats took a closer look. While almost everyone in the photo is sitting normally in their seats and smiling at the camera, there is a Trump supporter in the back rows, for whom there was probably no seat left, in the middle aisle of the aircraft.

Allegations to Trump's team: "Less obvious that everyone on the plane is white"

The reason for the excitement in many people is now the skin color of the standing. While the vast majority of passengers are white, the only African American of all people stands out in the center of the picture. Reason enough for US comedian Kristina Wong to share the Republican contribution. "When Ben Carson kneels in the middle aisle, it's less obvious that everyone on this plane is white," Wong writes.

Journalist Oliver Willis also provided the photo with an ironic comment: "Ben Carson in the role of the 'black'". The mentioned Ben Carson, who happens so unsuitably in the middle of the picture, is anything but a no-name. The 68-year-old is represented in Trump's cabinet as Minister for Housing and Urban Development.

Even Democrat politicians get involved - reproach against the Republicans

The Democrat Jon Cooper went one step further and accused the Republicans of editing the picture. "Did the Trump team really photoshop Ben Carson in this picture?" Asked the politician on Twitter. However, it is not known how seriously this statement was really meant.

Holy shit. Did Team Trump actually photoshop Ben Carson into this picture ?? pic.twitter.com/3PWlkClGbK
