Is Bieber a Trumpeter? Is Trump a Belieber? What’s Going On? (UPDATE: It’s All Lies!)

Sorry for making two Justin Bieber posts in a day, but the kid just keeps making news. This time, he quietly offered his support for one Mr. Donald J. Trump. Behold:

Oh @realdonaldtrump

And here is my favorite Twitter account verifying that the Biebs follows the Donald on Twitter:

So, does this mean Bieber is into Trump? What was that “like” all about?

UPDATE — 4:05 p.m. EST, April 6:

The plot has thickened considerably! In spite of a number of screenshots from varying sources that appear to imply Bieber’s “like” was real, Gossip Cop is claiming to have exclusively confirmed that the screenshots are total fabrications. Bieber’s rep told Gossip Cop that the incrimination shots are “fake.”
