If it's real, I'm confident he had some competent assistant hire a competent crew for that photo-op. I'm guessing a competent PR consultant suggested a good photo-op in the first place, hit the right buttons to appeal to his wannabe cool image.

If it's fake, some competent developer created a good tool, fed with competently selected data to create a rather convincing image.

What I'm trying to say is that there most certainly were several competent people involved in the making of this picture.

Just not the subject.
