Fake 'Time' magazine Trump cover hung in his clubs, report says

You know how at some fairs and amusement parks you can have your face put on a fake magazine cover? Well, a framed copy of a fake Time cover featuring Donald Trump hung from the walls of at least five of the president's clubs, including Mar-a-Lago, The Washington Post's David Fahrenthold reported Tuesday.

Photo published for A Time Magazine with Trump on the cover hangs in his golf clubs. It’s fake.

The fake cover dated March 1, 2009 features a large portrait photograph of a stern Trump with the headline
"Donald Trump: The 'Apprentice' is a television smash!"
The cover "looks like an impressive memento from Trump’s pre-presidential career," Fahrenthold wrote.
Time confirmed that the cover was a fake in an email to the Post. The Trump Organization did not respond to the Post's questions about the Time cover.
“We couldn’t comment on the decor at Trump Golf clubs one way or another,” White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee told the Post. 
Could Trump have intended the fake news cover as a lark, the way you might hang a goofy fake cover from the amusement park?
Fahrenthold doesn't seem to think so:

UPDATE 1-Poland expects long term deal for U.S. LNG supplies

Poland expects to sign a long-term deal for liquefied natural gas (LNG) supplies from the U.S. to reduce its reliance on Russian gas, the country's President Andrzej Duda said after meeting U.S. president Donald Trump. Poland imports most of the 16 billion cubic metres of gas it consumes a year from Russia, on the basis of a long-term deal with Gazprom which expires in 2022. Warsaw plans to replace the Russian gas after then with supplies from Norway via a planned pipeline as well as with more LNG from the U.S. coming to its terminal at the Baltic Sea. Duda spoke to Trump, who is visiting Warsaw, about Poland's security and gas supplies. "Let's hope for more supplies and further diversification of supplies of this commodity to Poland," Duda said
