Why is Samara Weaving’s test shot being used in claims of violence against Trump supporters? Is the Internet really that gullible?  The “Ash Vs Evil Dead” actress was featured bloodied and bruised for the TV series’ screen tests and somehow these images have gotten mixed up in politics. This week, the Twitter account for Conservative Nation posted the picture with the caption: “Here’s what happened to female Trump supporter when she met ‘peaceful’ and ‘tolerant’ liberals.” This set off an ignorant and raging bomb into the Twittersphere.

Haters and dummies have since been told to STFU.

‘Ash vs. Evil Dead’ star Bruce Campbell says tweet about bloodied Trump backer is actually actress Samara Weaving. https://t.co/ZthFqx20PY

Thank you @groovybruce for clearing this up….I am horrified that my show still is being used for conservative propaganda.
