What's with Jeb Bush's left hand? A Photoshop fail.
In one picture Bush's left hand has a much different skin tone than his head and his other hand.
Right to Rise, Bush's super PAC, announced Friday that is was sending a mailer to more than 85,000 voters in the first primary state of Iowa.
Almost immediately internet observers pointed out an irregularity on the flyer. Jeb Bush's left hand was significantly darker than the other.
Despite early rumors, Right to Rise didn't paste Jeb Bush's head onto Black man's body. But they definitely used Photoshop. The original photo appears to be this one:

Then as TIME pointed out, the background in the picture is actually a stock photo of Cedar Rapids. It seems that the mail creator overdid it with the burn tool and turn Jeb Bush into the first Photoshop fail of the 2016 campaign.
After the revelation about the photo, Donald Trump couldn’t resist the opportunity to criticize the former Florida governor, saying that he “just can’t get it right!”
Jeb Bush has a photoshopped photo for an ad which gives him a black left hand and much different looking body. Jeb just can't get it right!
